The 77-year-old British pop veteran recently opened up about her struggle with booze for the first time revealing she's been clean since checking into a rehab clinic in 2013.
She confessed she's glad she went public with her battle in her memoir If Only You Knew because the process was a healing experience for her.
She told the i newspaper: "It (writing the book} was like going to hell and back. It was intense. But it was cathartic ...
"Now I've come out and been vocal about being an alcoholic, I'm not proud of it, but I'm not ashamed. Because I was ashamed."
Lulu went on to reveal she's also been helped by her faith, adding: "I've always had tremendous faith. I call it spirituality more than religious.
"Every morning I get down on my knees and thank God for what I have ... I do think there's something greater than me."
The singer previously admitted she has a "healthy fear of relapse" in her battle with alcoholism admitting it "would be the end" of her if she started drinking again.
During an appearance on Matt Willis' On The Mend podcast, Lulu explained: "I have a healthy fear of relapse, but I don't go around thinking, oooh oooh. I think I have an understanding that it could happen.
"Many times when I'm with people who are drinking really good wine, which you develop a taste for - the good things in life - I don't know that I've had many experiences where I thought, I wish that was me.
"But I've had a couple of times when I thought: 'This is so delicious, this food, I would love that white wine with this'.
"But I know where I go when I have that. And the price I would have to pay - it's like cutting off your arm ... I would just collapse. It would be the end of me."
