Demi Moore opened up about battling alcohol addiction in her new book, Inside Out.

Now, Moores daughters are speaking up about their own experiences with their moms struggles over the years. Rumer and Tallulah Willis joined their mom on an upcoming episode of Jada Pinkett Smiths Red Table Talk to discuss, among other topics, her sobriety slip.

It was like the sun went down and, like, a monster came, Tallulah says in the clip, first shared by People .

I remember theres just the anxiety that would come up in my body when I could sense that her eyes were shutting a little bit more, the way she was speaking, she added. Or she would be a lot more affectionate with me if she wasnt sober.

Rumer described the experience as jarring, while Tallulah continued to described how her mom became almost childlike.

It was very weird and there were moments where it would get angry, Tallulah says. And I recall being very upset and kind of treating her like a child and speaking to her like a child. It was not the mom that we had grown up with.

Moore herself gave a soul-baring interview to Lena Dunham published last month in Harpers Bazaar in which she spoke candidly about losing her sobriety in her 40s before regaining it in her 50s.

In retrospect, what I realized is that when I opened the door [again], it was just giving my power away, Moore told the magazine. I guess I would think of it like this: It was really important to me to have natural childbirth because I didnt want to miss a moment. And with that I experienced pain.

She added that part of being sober is, I dont want to miss a moment of life, of that texture, even if that means being in some pain.
