Suzanne has been very open and forthcoming about her troubled childhood. As a girl, she was forced to endure an abusive, alcoholic father. She also suffered from dyslexia and enuresis (bedwetting). Her childhood experiences caused her to form the Suzanne Somers Institute For the Effects of Addictions on Families, and she has also been an active supporter of the National Association for Children of Alcoholics (NACoA).
