A former patient at the California clinic where Mel Gibson is recovering from alcoholism has warned the actor will have to scrub toilets while undergoing treatment.
Gibson was admitted to Malibu's exclusive Passages rehab center after being caught drunk driving last month and a former resident explains the treatment is tough from the start.
He says, "Mel will be going through hell, believing his entire world has crashed.
"Everyone has a daily commitment to perform. For the first week, that always means scrubbing the toilets until they shine."
However, the ex-patient insists the strict regime--which also includes eight-hour days of solo and group counseling--will pay off in the end.
He adds, "If Mel sticks to his 12-step program, admits his faults to God--or a power greater than himself--and surrenders totally, then his recovery can begin again.
"Passages has a fantastic success record with some of the savviest experts on hand to guide him through that early misery."

Cleaning toilets will be the easier part, and it's not so bad.
"For Gibson, self-knowledge is the linchpin here and self-knowledge doesn't come cheap. The inner journey requires time, lots of time."

Nice photoshop! This is Mels face superinposed on Nick Noltes horrifying mugshhot from a couple years ago.
Whatever Mel has to do to fight his demons he has the money for it. Disappointed he said what he said but under the influence of alcohol some upright citizens screw up their lives and others by killing, raping and vandelizing property so it could have been worse! Weird I just get real quiet when I drink and have a silly smile on my face!
