Depression Not Drugs For Drunkst

Filed under: Kirsten Dunst

kiki__opt1.jpg

Kirsten Dunst has revealed that she received treatment for depression, not drug or alcohol abuse, at Cirque Lodge in Utah last year.

Or so she'd like us to believe!

Dunst said, "There’s been a lot of misrepresentation about what is going on in my life, and it’s been very painful for my friends and family. Everyone feels like they have to defend me. They hear the rumors, and it puts them in a defensive position. Now that I’m feeling stronger, I was prepared to say something."

Kiki says mental illness doesn’t know any boundaries — Hollywood stars, your non-Hollywood next door neighbor — it hits everyone, “We’re all in the same boat together. Depression is pretty serious and should not be gossiped about.”

We're glad that she got the help she needed, whatever it was for.

And we hope she's not lying about why she went into rehab!

    Cirque Lodge is not for depression, but for substance abuse. I am sure she has depression issues, but alcohol and drugs are probably what she was really there for. She is doing damage control now because people have spotted her out partying.

    perez, dont be such a tard, sometimes you have to have to let up on people especially if they talk about depression and/or suicide.

    You don't have to like her to show some compassion Perez. I enjoy your site, but NOT when you get so ugly - gossip doesn't HAVE to be without compassion.

    All I have to say is karma. What comes around goes around. I have not looked at this site for some time now as it is all negative. I don't like to have negative people or things around me and that obviously includes this site. Reading people's negative comments and this idiot Perez's comments who probably has not even graduated colleged has solidified my decision to stop coming to this site as it is sick and unhealthy. People who said all this bad stuff about people are just miserable themselves and projecting. The people who are supporting K. D. by writing on this site are also supporting Perez's site. He is just some fool who makes a buck off of saying horrible stuff about others. I am not going to say anything bad about the way he looks etc. as I have said enough negative comments about him. These sites should be banned. Thank god for karma baby..it will bite Perez and others in the ass..don't you worry it all comes back.

    Let's just say, Perez that I could give a fuck what you and your cronies think about anyone. I am not defending "KiKi" because I have no idea what her story is….and either do you. I look at this website to be informed, but when I read your opinions and inuindos such as "let's just hope she's not lying as to why she was in rehab"….it makes me sick that I clicked on this pathetic website. Not only am I not going to visit your website anymore, I'm going to make it a low-priority goal (that's all your worth) to insure that there are so many people that don't "hit" your website…it will actually devestate you.

    I would ask you to post a picture of yourself with your scribble in cock coming out of your mouth, but it's not worth it to me since I will no longer be clicking on this pathetic site.

    The world isn't sterile as you…you judge as if you were so untouched by hardship. Let's unravel your shady past and see your vunerable cellulite jiggly belly.

    I just came back from the dry cleaners and my shirts were depressed.++++++all the stars can fuck themselves. They have an agent,a manager,a publicist, a lawyer,make up artist,hair person,nutritionist, stylist,trainer,life coach, posse,yoga instructor,tai chi instructor, pilateinstructor, personal chef,maid, life coach,driver, security yeah I'm depressed. With all of the above why does she omit a. Cosmetic dentist. All you blogwhores. Why do stars or people on camera like newscasters show off yellow teeth. Its a distraction I almost stop listening.AND why do some only get the tops done but not the bottom. Randy jackson perfect example. Full vaneers are 30,000 why get bright white on top and leave yellow on the bottom DOG.Also you sometimes see people that only get 4 teeth done on the top and the bottom. That looks like shit too.Some like Hillary Duff has changed the size of her teeth 3 times.Look at Hillary Swank you want to give her a carrot and wish her good luck in the Triple Crown.

    That's good she did what she did. I battle depression everyday of my life. You know how hard it is to put a smile on my face sometimes? Really hard. I want to, but I just can't. Everybody deals with it in different ways. I see a therapist about twice a month and sometimes it isn't enough to suffice for the way I feel. Good for her!!!!!

    As a person who has had to deal with depression for a long time, I am disappointed in you. I feel that you misrepresented the depression issue when you made . Sure there's a chance it wasn't depression that caused her to go to rehab and honestly I have no idea why she went.

    I'm talking about the issue itself. It seemed you were trying to brush it off and make her seem like a drunk instead. I'm going to tell it to you truthfully: Depression can eat at your life and destroy your dreams the same as drinking and drug abuse. It eats at your ambitions. Every day ambitions (like get up and take a shower) along with life long ambitions and it can drown you.

    Please for the sake of the many people who view your blog every day, never ever make light of this again.

    re # 113 - Having a bad teeth day are we ? I think your teeth fixation ;) may hide an underlying mental health issue , dear.

    gosh, would it be a big stretch to say that all addicts are depressed, and that's why we take drugs? what a wiener, fess up or mess up..

    People use sex, drugs, alcohol, exercise, anything to combat depression. It's like you are on a treadmill trying to run away from your miserable self, but you get nowhere. That only makes you more depressed. And if one more person say "cheer up" to a depressed person, I'm am gonna SCREAM. Ignorance is not bliss, it is just f**king ignorant.

    perez, please don't make fun of her (at least for rehab) anymore. depression is humiliating and hard to admit you have, so i highly doubt she is lying. drugs and drinking is considered "cool" now, so why would she say she has depression instead?

    depression is so fucking hard to deal with. i feel terrible that a movie star has to deal with it, because i always thought that if i became famous (i'm not going to, i'm just saying) that it would suck, cuz the tabloids would feed on my depression. it's embarrassing enough, and hardly anyone knows i have it.

    good luck, kirsten!

    Re: Heidi Ho – Actually Einstein, if you google this subject, you will see their are multitudes of scientific evidence that the "addicts" brain in different from the normal Brain. This might cause a person to lean on a substance to cope in lieu of seeking medical treatment because of nimrods likes yourself who poo-poo the idea of mental illness as an excuse for addiction. I'll excuse you cuz you're probably a brain dead 20 something. Actually you're brain should be developed enough at this point for critical thinking.

    Re: nonya
    Sadly, the host of this site is laughing all the way to the bank. Hopefully there will be enough backlash against gossiping and judging for the media to turn back to reporting what really matters: the news. I might as well make this my last visit to tabloid gossips sites.

    If she wasn't such a bitch maybe she'd have friends and that would help her depression.Trust me I have asked her out countless times and she wont' date a commoner.

    That was a brave thing for her to do and she is being a good role model to girls out there who are also depressed. She is not ashamed to admit it and to get help for herself.
