LOVE GIVEN ACID AS A TODDLER

COURTNEY LOVE insists her problems with substance abuse started early when she was given acid as a four-year-old child.

The rocker has been sober for the last 15 months and recently turned to Buddhism to help her get her life back on track, after ruining her life early on.

She says, "Because I was given acid at four, I think my mind was freed. My father was this shyster who would get money from the government to make LSD, and bad LSD."

Love claims her father may be responsible for an especially toxic batch of acid that made its way to California's Altamont Music Festival in 1969, believed to be behind the deaths of four revellers.

She explains, "Allegedly the brown acid at Altamont was his. He can't go to Marin County (near San Francisco), because (he has) a hit out on him."

The star insists she will go on tour again, but is afraid she may return to her hard-partying ways adding, "I'm concerned about drinking.

"I'll probably take a sober coach and have this guy that ORLANDO BLOOM brings with him everywhere: DAVID - he says that he would go with me.

"He's a big Buddhist, you know, a lot of acupuncture. I can't afford to fall off the wagon."
