Christina Ricci`s 20s were like a "hurricane"
The 32-year-old actress - who landed her first film role in `Mermaids` aged 10 - insists life is much calmer now she has entered her third decade.
She said: "I`m so glad I`m not 20-years-old any more. I was in a hurricane. I`m a lot calmer now. I don`t cause destruction for myself and others everywhere I go."
"I take things as they happen and I`ve learned to be calm about things, troubleshoot problem as they arise and make the best out of things."
But despite the mayhem, Christina - who suffered from an eating disorder in her early teenage years - wouldn`t change a thing about her wild-girl past.
In an interview with Marie Claire, she explained: "It all kind of makes up the back story which is my life."
Now single, having called off her engagement to actor Owen Benjamin in 2009, the `Bel Ami` star says she is looking for: "Somebody smart and funny that I love being with.`"
But one think she won`t stand for in a relationship is someone that wants to take away her personality.
She added: "I`ve always said to people you should never let anyone change who you are because the only commodity you really have is your individuality."
