The former fitness guru, who turned 80 on December 21, said she assumed she would die from an addiction "of some sort" much earlier in her life, reported People magazine.
"I never pictured 30. I assumed I wouldn't live very long and that I would die lonely and an addict of some sort. I didn't think if I did live this long, that I would be vibrant and healthy and still working. I'm grateful," Fonda said.
"I'm thankful that I've gotten better over the 80 years. I'm less judgemental. I'm forgiving. It wasn't always true. I've really worked hard to get better as a human being.
