SPY: Reading Lindsay Lohan

Lindsay Lohan may be out of jail, People magazine says, but she isn't happy.

"She is having a difficult time accepting that she will be in rehab for the next three months," a source tells the magazine. "She still doesn't think she needs any help."

But Lohan's estranged father Michael says 13 days in the slammer worked a treat for his daughter Lindsay.

"What happened in jail is nothing less than a miracle," he said on an Atlanta radio show. "Some people just get it, and I think Lindsay has just got it this time."

The differing reports about Lohan's time in the slammer and her mental state of mind are as confused as the sometime-actresses' appearance of late.

She will be treated in rehab for a methamphetamine addiction, the mags told us. "She is not a meth addict," her lawyer Shawn Holley Chapman responded. Adderall - a methamphetamine base stimulant to treat ADHD - is her problem, according to her dad.

What are we to believe?

MTV.com reports she cried a lot in the clink and ate Twizzlers (licorice twirl sticks) in solitary confinement.

But Bernadine Oliver-Kerby, after reading the Breakfast news this morning, told viewers she doubted Lohan was lolling about in her cell scoffing food. "She's not exactly known for eating," Bernie says, offering her two cents.

Are we all experts on La Lohan now?

One thing's for sure, though the 24-year-old actress only served 13 of her 90-day jail sentence for violating her 2007 probation, she will have to serve the entire 90 days of court-mandated rehab at a UCLA Hospital-affiliated facility in order to complete her sentence.

Of course, being routed to rehab is nothing new for Lindsay.

In January 2007 she checked into the Wonderland Center and checked out 30 days later. Then in May of that year, she became a patient of the Promises Treatment Center and celebrated - 45 days later - by partying soberly with pals at Pure nightclub in Las Vegas.

That was not to last. Her publicist announced months later she was attending AA meetings. She checked in to the Cirque Lodge Treatment Center in Utah for a six week detox session.

Aside from compulsory rehabilitation, Judge Marsha Revel ordered Lohan to remain sober until the probation period ends in August of next year. Going against her probation, as Lohan is now acutely aware, could send her back to the slammer.
