Former NBA star Lamar Odom's eldest daughter Destiny recently revealed that she initially thought she had caused her dad to become an addict, but later realised after talking to therapists and drug specialists that she wasn't to blame.


"You just know the way that an addict's brain is chemically wired. They can love you, they would do anything for you, but at the end of the day, there's a chemical dependency on drugs.
