Devastating truth about Rob Reiner's daughter Romy: Her own addiction battle... how she 'lived in fear' of Nick... and the handsome companion she's leaning on, all revealed by heartbroken friends
Daily Mail ^ | December 21, 2025 | Meredith Clark, Eileen Reslen, Steve Helling, Dana Kennedy

...In a 2022 episode of the All of Us podcast, Romy admitted that, at one point, she had been smoking up to 25 joints of marijuana a day and was on antidepressants.

'I was pretty addicted,' she said. 'I hate marijuana. Addiction is very real. Let's say I was abusing it, for sure.

'Fifteen to 25 joints a day, just blitzed all the time. That's a very long time. Dude, I was really f***ed up, and now I smoke, let's say tops, three joints a day at the end of the night.'...

She had been on and off the antidepressants, she said, 'since I was 15 or 16'.

Her depression, she added, had been so 'severe' when she was at high school that some days she couldn't get out of bed.

And then there were the night terrors and panic attacks over a period of many years that left her feeling as if she were 'fighting for [her] life every night'.

'I could have a dream where I have to fight off twelve huge men with guns to save my life and run,' she explained. 'I have to literally murder people to survive in my dreams.'

More recently, Romy has been candid about her battle with endometriosis, posting out inspiring updates to her 160,000 Instagram followers.

In a surprising revelation, shared again on that podcast episode, Romy told how, despite her father's stellar career – first as an actor on hit sitcom All in the Family and later as director of classics such as When Harry Met Sally – he too struggled privately with demons.

'My dad has had pretty much clinical depression his entire life, since he was a kid, and that's how I've felt and have been diagnosed whatever with that,' Romy said.

Yes, I was shocked by President Trump's lackadaisical position on dope.

If anything, dope should be criminalized.

Correct … Good parenting is generational but a victim mentality can shoot you down a bad path so fast and being the needy sibling brings attention and testing of love. passive aggressive parenting control via the children. And bad influences

“I’m convinced TDS will put people in the bug house.”

I think the Democrat pols closed all the bug houses and put the nuts back on the street. That’s where Nick should’ve been.

“Yes. ‘Maui Wowee’.”

You could smell it in the air often just walking along minding your own business.

(When I lived in Alaska, it was “Matanuska Thunderf**k”.)

My family member can smoke a joint while eating a brownie and still not get buzzed. Her tolerance is too built up. I keep enough Weed in the house “just in case”. I take CBD for sleep but it can cause intense dreams and THC will stop those.

Honestly, I can't imagine going through life blitzed like that. That's an
interesting anecdote about Alaska too. No place is safe.

I just saw an article about a study in Ohio which found that 40% of drivers
in fatal accidents had high THC levels in their blood.

“Honestly, I can’t imagine going through life blitzed like that.”

Agree. WHY would you, on PURPOSE, impair your senses? Just one glass of wine and I’m feeling a bit loopy, and I hate it. (Have wine maybe twice a year.)

I believe I read that her daughter was hangin’ with Charlie Mansons girls, and that’s why she moved.
don’t know if that’s true though.

...My dad has had pretty much clinical depression his entire life...

Rob Reiner had issues that, for him, may have been the foundation of his success.

Rob passed that gene to his children.
Their variant of that gene delivered a different outcome

"Rob passed that gene to his children".

For all anybody knows, they could've inherited all or part of it from their mother.

I am firmly against pot for kids.
Pot messes up your mind and ability to think.

But, I worked for a generic pharmaceutical company
We sold a pill that delivered the same outcome as pot.
Some folks have a disease that results in a LOT of pain and discomfort. For them, our pill, or just enough pot, would lift the pain and allow a return to normalcy

This medical pot scam has run it course .
You describe a isolated incident and that nice .
In the real world ,
My neighbor is a unemployed older pot head stoned 24-7 menace .
He blow this crap throughout the neighbor hood daily .
Trump action unleashed more pot
in our school yards for a buck .In 2024 in Fl , I kept getting these
Pot Firms Texts stating Trump support unlimited Pot access amendment
which he did . My wife and I were ticked off .
Trump cant be this big anti drugs but pro Pot because he and his buds make big money on Pot .

We don’t trust a word out of his mouth now.
Sadly , it appears to be just follow the money with him.

How victorious being down to 3 or so joints a night. Way to conquer your addiction.

Sounds like Marinol. My buddy’s bro-in-law had a prescription for it back in the early ‘80s. I think he must’ve gone to a doctor who believed a made-up story he told about needing it.
