Lindsay Lohan sat down with Oprah Winfrey for a very candid interview, taped four days after she left the Cliffside Malibu Rehabilitation center on July 30.

In the one hour special for Oprah's Next Chapter, the 27-year-old spoke openly about her substance abuse, family, career and her desire to move forward. Below is a list of seven things we learned from Lohan's interview.

1) She's an addict.

Lohan confessed that she's addicted to alcohol and has done cocaine "10 to 15 times."

“It was like a party thing. People would have it and I would do it," she said of the latter.

She was also once addicted to Adderall, a medication that treats ADHD, but she is no longer prescribed to it.

2) She wanted to go to jail.

The actress spent two weeks in jail in 2010 and while she said the experience was "terrifying," she felt it was the right option for her.

"I somewhere inside knew and kind of wanted to go to jail. And I think that that was subconsciously being put out there by me," she said. "I think it was just to find some peace and just have no choice but to just sit and be."

3) She wants to focus on her career.

"I haven't felt the way I've been feeling recently and feel now in a very long time. I feel whole again. I have such a desire to want to keep this feeling and stay this way and I'm willing to do whatever it takes," she said. "I really want to be on set like that feeds me."

4) Her downfall started with Mean Girls, her 2004 film.

"When I moved to L.A. after filming Mean Girls, I was 17 or 18. I was around people so I wasn't lonely, and I didn't pay close enough attention to people being around for the wrong reasons. I was making too much. I wasted so much money. I was living at a hotel, and I had an apartment. I wasn't really being guided. I didn't think about it, and I didn't listen to my family when they told me, 'Come back to New York,'" she said.

5) She loves her family.

After years of conflict, Lohan's family is finally on better terms. During the interview, Lohan said that she was scheduled to have a lunch date with both her parents and her younger sister Ali Lohan.

 "I love my parents and I'm not going to say that certain situations I would've preferred to have been handled differently, certain things I would've preferred to be kept within my family. But that's in the past and I can't change that," she said.

6) Her sixth stint in rehab was successful.

"I don't think in the past I ever really fully surrendered to the fact I needed to shut up and listen," she said.

7) Lindsay claims her life is different now.

"It's a process of growing up and recognizing and being just so tired and exhausted by the chaos," she said. "I have had no right in my past to complain about being followed by cameras and people making up stories, but there's something to be said about me moving forward."

The actress will also appear in a reality docu-series that will air on Winfrey's OWN network.
