Lily Allen Seeking Help Of A Therapist To Fight Depression Lily Allen |
Singer Lily Allen who has been going through severe depression since 2008 is seeking help of a therapist to come out of it. The singer is in depression after she suffered a miscarriage.
Allen also added that now she is able to spot the symptoms when she is falling into depression.
"I work with a therapist on a regular basis. I'm quite capable of noticing when I'm taking a turn for the worse. Then I decide not to work for the next month, and I take time to concentrate on myself. I had to do that in January 2008 after my miscarriage," said Allen.
The ‘Smile’ hitmaker, who vowed to retire from pop music, claimed that she has now learned to lead a positive life and never lets negative thoughts come around her.
"I haven't had to call my therapist recently but, if I felt there were repetitive negative thoughts going around in my head, I've had enough mental history to know to call someone for help. Its negative thoughts about the world and things going on around me, I can generally write that off as a temporary bout of depression. But if the negative thoughts are about me, then it gets a bit more serious,” the singer said.
