LOS ANGELES, Calif. -- Caption Lindsay Lohan poses as she hosted a photography exhibit at The Atelier in New YorkLindsay Lohan has blamed bad judgment for her trips to rehab last year.

"I think it was just situations that I was putting myself in," she told People. “I was putting myself in the wrong situations and I didn't have the focus in the right place.”

The star of “I Know Who Killed Me,” has been working on a dance-influenced album in recent weeks. And though she’s on the right path now, she said she couldn’t have gotten there without the help of her loved ones.

“My family has always been important to me, and they've always supported me," she said. "I'm blessed to have a really wonderful family."

In addition to their support, Lohan has altered her post-rehab life, to help her stay on the straight and narrow.

“I did – I changed things,” she said.

Lohan is also preparing to head back to her movie career, filming a part in “Ye Olde Times,” starring Jack Black, later this year.

“I think this is what I love to do,” Lohan said of acting. “I’m just continuing to do it – in the right ways.”
