Ireland Baldwin is setting the record straight on her latest rehab stint.
Alec Baldwin and Kim Basinger's daughter took to Twitter and admitted that she voluntarily checked into rehab after suffering from deep "emotional trauma." The 19-year-old model's confession comes after media reports suggested that she's seeking treatment for substance abuse.
"Apparently I'm in rehab for intensive partying soooo I'm just going to lay pretty low for a bit and maybe get some frozen yogurt," she joked.
In several posts, Ireland explained that she checked herself into Malibu's Soba Recovery Center, a drug and alcohol treatment center that helps patients deal with the underlying psychological causes of addiction, because she needed time to work on herself.
"I checked myself into Soba for two weeks to just get away for a little bit," Ireland continued. "I'm not much a party cat but I am here deal with... some emotional trauma and getting the intensive therapy I needed in order to recover. Someday I'll feel ready to share my story, openly without feeling the way I do."
Ireland continued, "Right now I just needed a breather. I needed a chance to work on myself and gather all the tools... "I need to overcome everything that I had been through and rid myself of all the pain I locked away in unreachable places."
Her final tweet read, "Every day is a blessing. You don't even know the half."
RadarOnline.com reported last week that Ireland's mother had checked her daughter into rehab for substance abuse because her family became worried over her "partying non-stop."
"She's not using, this is not drug-related, she voluntarily checked herself in," an insider told People. "She's just been in some tough situations lately, and it's gotten a bit stressful and overwhelming, so she's just being proactive. She's in there to get the tools she needs to move forward in a positive direction."
