Fawn Hall, best known as Col. Oliver North's document-shredding secretary, says she became addicted to crack cocaine after leaving Washington and was hospitalized for an overdose.
"I hated myself so much because I couldn't even kill myself. I wanted to die, but I didn't have the courage to kill myself," Hall told the syndicated TV show "Inside Edition."Hall said she only began to fight her addiction after the overdose and later entered a drug rehabilitation program.
During her addiction, she said, she holed up in her Los Angeles home for months at a time, never answering the phone and barely eating.
