Pat totally surrendered to the program. Dr. Phi said he is a huge supporter of the 12 step program.

That is to be commended! I loved what Dr. Phil said about Pat being a loving, caring, sensitive father and said that this was the real Pat O'Brien, not the person on the tape.

He has the courage to face up to this and not run. He will be stronger as a result.

Just saw this....thanks for the heads up!

I have mixed feelings about this. One the one hand I want him to get a second chance, and on the other hand...I don't want it to be too easy for him, just becaues he is a celeb. I hope he sticks with it and becomes an advocate for substance abuse awareness.

As for Dr Phil....I think he is "Therapy Lite", but I think that if you can do more good than harm...you are doing something right. He seems to connect with people, and if he can help them...that is great.
