Johnny
Depp Thankful to be Alive
11/22/05
Hollywood star Johnny Depp is thankful he didn't die of an overdose
during his drug-fuelled wild years.
The Charlie
and the Chocolate Factory star was so intimidated by his celebrity
status during his early movie career, he turned to drink and illegal drugs
to block out his unhappiness.
The 42-year-old says, "For a number of years I self-medicated
because I couldn't quite figure it out.
"I thought a simple life was an impossibility. It flipped me out.
"It was a weird period. There were times when it was a wonder I
survived."
