Britney Spears was "lost" and had "hit rock bottom" when she suffered her breakdown, she has confessed.

The singer has offered fans a heartfelt explanation as to why she checked into rehab, blaming her excessive partying and split from husband Kevin Federline for her erratic behaviour and strained metal state.

Britney wrote on her personal website: "Recently, I was sent to a very humbling place called rehab. I truly hit rock bottom. Till this day I don't think that it was alcohol or depression. I was like a bad kid running around with ADD (attention deficit disorder).

"I had a manager from a long time ago come in and try to direct me and my life after I got my divorce. I was so overwhelmed I think that I was in a little shock too. I didn't know who to go to. I realised how much energy and love I had put into my past relationship when it was gone because I genuinely did not know what to do with myself, and it made me so sad. I confess, I was so lost."

Mother-of-two Britney, 25, also revealed she has had to "to cut so many people out of my life", because she was "too open" in the past.

The 'Toxic' singer - who has two sons, Sean Preston and Jayden James, from her failed relationship with Kevin - insists motherhood has helped her face up to her problems.

She added: "Right now, I am having to face a lot of things since I have children of my own. A lot of insecurities from when I was little are coming up again. It is like we are never good enough.

"I know everyone thinks that I am playing the victim, but I am not and I hate what is going on right now so much. Maybe this is the reason for this letter... to maybe allow people to look at me differently."

Britney ended her emotional letter by bizarrely saying she couldn't wait to meet God.

She wrote: "It is so weird how stories are told. There is your side, my side, and the truth. Somebody has to figure it out. I guess we will never really understand or figure out life completely. That's God's job. I can't wait to meet him... or her."

Britney was photographed clubbing without her underwear and publicly shaved all her hair off before spending a month in Malibu's Promises rehab centre earlier this year.

How dare Britney Spears equate her attention seeking, spoiled, gutter-crawling behavior with the genuine condition of ADD which so many children struggle to cope with. Why do we give coverage to the self-absorbed rantings which she is now spewing out in a pathetic attempt to re-ingratiate herself with her few remaining fans? She never had any talent, her popularity was won solely on a few soft-porn 'music' videos. Now we must listen to her philosophic and spiritual musings.

I Love Britney!
Every one needs to leave her alone she's trying
to be a good person now. She's had her ups and many lows, but
she's cleaned up. I bet everyone will be singing to her comeback album in no time!

I agree with your statement as to her referring herself to people who suffer from an actual condition. If she wants to be left alone then she needs to pull herself out of the light her actions put her in. She has noone to thank but herself for her own childish stupid actions. Even if you are rich your actions have consequences welcome to the REAL world

So, at the end of her little comment where she says she can not wait to meet the lord, is she talking about killing herself because she just can't cope with all of life's troubles. She needs to get her head on straight and think about the future of her children and how life will treat them in the future, they will look back and see how their own Mother was behaving badly. The way I look at it she needs to get out of the spot light and raise her children in a peace loving environment.

'Rambling' is definitely the word for this - wonder what she was on?

ADD a genuine condition??? Oh please. ADD is nothing more than a fabrication of the pharmaceutical industry.
