Describing herself as a 'rebellious' child, she revealed how she started drinking alcohol, smoking marijuana and skipping school aged 13.
She began modelling aged 15, before making the decision to leave school and relocate from Melbourne to New York City to further her career.
Jessica explained that while she wasn't drinking everyday, she found that she 'didn't stop' once she'd had that first drink.
'A few drinks didn't interest me. I was go hard or go home. And home was never the answer,' she wrote.
Jessica revealed that it wasn't until her early thirties that she decided to turn her life around because she was 'start[ing] to feel this is getting old'.
She had an epiphany one morning when she woke up and thought 'this is it' and decided to instead turn her 'body into a temple'.
During her first few months of sobriety, she made small changes and even began attending Alcoholics Anonymous meetings.
'I joined AA and did 30 meetings in 30 days,' she said, referring to the traditional advice given to AA newcomers that they attend meetings daily.
