E makes you bummed
Published July 30, 2003
In an interview with Radio 1's Sara Cox, Robbie Williams has spoken out
about his depression, blaming his adolescent intake of ecstasy.
Robbie said: "When you take ecstasy, your brain releases loads of this thing
called serotonin, and it makes you go: 'Great!' The reason why you're going: 'Great' is because the serotonin in your head's going: 'Wey hey hey, loads of it!' and then you use it all up and your brains got nothing to bathe in. There's this stigma of: 'Oh he's weird', you know? And also, people go: 'What've you got to be depressed about?' And they're right, there's nothing. Now I'm on these pills! Depression isn't about: 'Woe is me, my life is his, that and the other', it's like having the worst flu all day, that you just can't kick."
Robbie said that he hoped that him opening up about his illness would help
other sufferers.
