The former President Bill Clinton used the Fleetwood Mac track "Don't Stop" during his 1992 campaign, and 1993 the original Fleetwood Mac line-up, including Stevie and Buckingham, performed at Clinton's inaugural ball. There was no mention of a permanent reunion, and people were very critical of the fact that Stevie had gained a fair amount of weight. Her 'Klonopin' addiction was not only increasing, it was now taking it's toll, with Stevie shaking severely and rarely leaving her house, her weight at one point reaching 175 lb. Growing increasingly worried about the effects it was having on her, she asked her personal assistant, Glenn to take the same dosage of her medication while she watched, and the results were scary. Glenn was unable to complete any of the simple tasks he had that day, and was very nearly hallucinating. This confirmed what Stevie had suspected; the medication was certainly not doing her any favors. Later that year Stevie held a baby shower at her house and fell over a box, cutting her head. She knew that there could be no other reason for her fall, and finally realized that it was due to the awful effects that the Klonopin was having on her, and she admitted to herself that she needed help. There followed a traumatic spell in the Daniel Freeman Memorial Hospital in Venice Beach, which lasted for 47 days. She had the most dreadful time and has stated that her skin was peeling and her hair was going grey, but eventually she was free from her addiction. Stevie has since declared that her addiction to Klonopin cost her eight years of her life, and regards this as a time when she could have met and settled down with someone, maybe even starting a family. The Klonopin caused more problems to her than the cocaine addiction ever did, and Stevie has often vented her hatred of the tranquilizer ever since. After her hospital stay Stevie went on to release another solo album, "Street Angel" in 1994. This album only reached 45 in the Billboard Top 200, and Stevie stated that a lot of the production was done while she was in rehab, which resulted in a disappointing album for her. She continued with a three-month promotional tour but was dismayed to find that not only was the album not proving to be popular, but also that it was mainly her weight that everyone was focusing on. From this point she decided to concentrate on losing weight and promised herself that she would never appear on stage again until she had lost her surplus weight.
