UPDATED OCT 28, 2018

Demi Moore opened up about her struggle with the demon of substance addiction while receiving an award in Los Angeles, saying that she went down an arduous path of self-destruction, and for the longest time felt "she wasn't good enough."

The actress was honored on Saturday at Beverly Hilton Hotel with the Woman of the Year Award by Los Angeles-based women’s recovery center and sober living program Peggy Albrecht Friendly House.

Speaking to the audience while receiving the award, Moore claimed that she had very little regard for herself, as she would often seek ways to destroy herself.
