Lindsay Lohan needs rehab, not jail

BEVERLY HILLS, CA - SEPTEMBER 24: Actress Lindsay Lohan arrives for a mandatory court appearance before a judge at Beverly Hills Courthouse on September 24, 2010 in Beverly Hills, California. Lohan was ordered back to jail for failing a court-ordered drug test. Superior Court Judge Elden S. Fox, who earlier this week revoked the 24-year-old actress' probation, set no bail, pending an October 22 probation hearing, meaning Lohan could spend the next 30 days behind bars.

Lindsay Lohan confessed to her friends this week that she needed to go back to rehab, not jail, if she was going to defeat her addiction demons.

Sources tell that Lindsay was surprisingly self-aware that she made a big mistake by falling off the wagon and testing positive for cocaine and that she couldn’t fight her disease alone.

We’re told Lindsay was also aware that her relapse had “ruined a lot” in connection to the revival of her career.

Lindsay was “remarkably unafraid” about the possibility of going back to jail but at the same time, she didn’t expect Judge Elden Fox to send her back to Lynwood Correctional Facility.
