Demi Moore: I had absolutely no value for myself

Actress Demi Moore, who was honored with the Woman of the Year Award by women's recovery centre and sober living programme Peggy Albrecht Friendly House here, says there was a time when she never felt good enough.

Moore, who has come a long way since she first became a star with her career making turn in 1985's 'St. Elmo's Fire', said it was early in her career that she found recovery.

"I was spiraling down a path of real self-destruction and no matter what success I had I just never felt good enough," Moore said at the event on Saturday. "I had absolutely no value for myself and this self-destructive path, it really quickly brought me to a real crisis point," the 'Ghost' star said.

"It wasn't clear at the time, maybe it was divine intervention, but two people who I barely knew stepped up and took a stand for me and presented me with an opportunity, which I guess was more like an ultimatum - unless I was dead, I better show up." Without divulging the details of what and why she went through, she said she was given a chance to redirect the course of her life "before I destroyed everything".

"Clearly they saw more in my than I saw in myself and I'm so grateful because without that opportunity, without their belief in me, I wouldn't be standing here today," Moore said.
