Drew Barrymore: Divorce took me years to get over

Drew Barrymore shared in a video from her show how divorce took her years to overcome. The actress, known for her numerous accolades including a Golden Globe, an Emmy, and an award, explained that the emotional aftermath of a 21-year marriage was profound. Barrymore emphasized the importance of giving oneself time, transforming negative self-feelings into positive self-regard, and refraining from self-blame.

She credited her therapist, Great Barry Michaels, for teaching her to reframe her self-loathing into self-love. Despite her successful career, which includes roles in films like E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial and Charlie's Angels, and a directorial debut with Whip It, Barrymore revealed the challenges she faced in moving on after divorce.
