Paris Jackson Admits to Attending AA Meetings


Paris Jackson has looked better -- and happier -- than ever since returning from a therapeutic boarding school in Utah, but she revealed on Friday that she's still battling some bigger issues.

The 17-year-old got emotional in an Instagram post as she addressed the negative comments she often receives from haters and also revealed she's been seeking help at AA meetings.

"This is f--king ridiculous. I am expected to literally sit on my ass all day replying to comments people leave me (positive and negative)? I have AA meeting to go to. Family obligations. PERSONAL obligations."

She continued her post by explaining the amount of pressure she's under being the daughter of the King of Pop.



"It's so selfish that I am literally attacked on every f--king thing I post just because people that I DON'T EVEN KNOW aren't getting what they want...I appreciate the love and support, but the expectations are f--king ridiculous," she shared. "The expectations for my DAD were f--king ridiculous. He didn't owe you anything, yet he was ripped to shreds DAILY. I will not let that happen to me."

The young teen says she initially tried to address many of the comments people made toward her, but enough was enough and she's not planning to make time for them any longer.

Life hasn't been easy for Paris, who was largely shielded from the spotlight before her dad passed away. Since her dad's death, Paris reportedly attempted suicide and has been struggling with depression. She and her siblings, Michael, 18, and Blanket, 13, have lived with various family members, but have spent the majority of their time with their grandmother, Katherine Jackson, and cousin T.J. Jackson.

Paris has also kept up a romantic relationship with her boyfriend, Chester Castellaw. The duo have been spotted on many occasions out and about in Los Angeles.
