Natasha Lyonne is sharing an update on her sobriety journey — two months after revealing she relapsed.
“Proud to report this kid is doing a whole lot better & back on her feet,” the “Orange is the New Black” star wrote via X on Thursday.
“Want to thank our recovery communities & the fans who stood by & were so supportive. Aiming to keep the journey somehow private, but look forward to sharing my experience, strength & hope as makes sense. My heart is with everyone ever going through it.”
Lyonne — who openly battled drug and alcohol addictions in the mid-2000s — revealed in January that she was no longer sober.
“Took my relapse public more to come,” Lyonne, 46, penned in posts shared via X at the time.
“Recovery is a lifelong process. Anyone out there struggling, remember you’re not alone. Grateful for love & smart feet.”
She also told fans that she was “gonna do it for baby Bambo,” Lyonne noted, referencing the title of her upcoming movie about hockey player Sophie “Bambo” Braverman.
Giving a message to fans, the “Russian Doll” star noted, “Stay honest, folks. Sick as our secrets.”

“If no one told ya today, I love you,” Lyonne continued, “No matter how far down the scales we have gone, we will see how our experience may help another. Keep going, kiddos. Don’t quit before the miracle. Wallpaper your mind with love. Rest is all noise & baloney.”
Followers quickly praised the “American Pie” star for her candidness.
One person wrote, “Life is hard right now, and I don’t think anyone in their right mind would question how or why this happened. You had nearly 20 years. You’ll make it back again. Sending you a lot of love. Take care of you, f–k the rest.”
Lyonne replied: “Thanks, boss. There but for the grace, etc. Sending love back your way. May become a pothead or a nun. TBD.”
“Ignore the haters. You’re amazing,” another fan chimed in, with the Hollywood icon replying, “Thanks & know it. Got low self esteem but not imposter syndrome. Love u all.”
Lyonne faced multiple run-ins with the law and health problems while she was struggling with substance abuse in the mid-2000s.
However, she ultimately entered treatment in 2006.
Since getting clean and sober, Lyonne has made a comeback in acting, starring in “Orange is the New Black,” “Russian Doll” and “Poker Face” among other hits.
While speaking with The Cut in 2019, the actress opened up about how her setbacks helped her in the long run.
“Having such a specific experience enabled me to have a specific point of view, even though it was a nightmare getting through so much of it,” Lyonne explained. “But I think of that often; if you had sort of made a deal with me then and told me, ‘This is what you’re going to have to go through.’”
Having her issues be so public has also freed her up to be true to herself.
As Lyonne told the website, “I can just focus on being one person, the person I actually am.”
