Comic Martin Lawrence says that drugs and alcohol were not the fuel that drove his personal problems in a year that saw him arrested, hospitalized, divorced and sued. Lawrence tells Details magazine that the pressure of his success caused the troubles. "When you're dealing with a time that's so cloudy and you got pressures, then you can have havoc," he says. After checking out of a rehab program after just one day, Lawrence said, "I found it took ME to get myself together instead of some program."
