LeAnn Rimes News 2016: Singer Admits To Dealing With Anxiety And Depression [VIDEO]
It's not easy being LeAnn Rimes, according to the country singer herself. The former chart topper, whose controversial personal life has overshadowed her music career in recent years, opens up about wanting to almost end her career because of the stress, anxiety and depression she's had to deal with.
In a new interview with Britain's The Sun this week, Rimes - who nowadays is best known for cheating on her ex-husband with actor Eddie Cibrian, and ultimately marrying him even though he was involved with ex-wife Brandi Glanville when they first began their relationship - says she almost hit rock bottom when she was treated for anxiety and stress at a rehabilitation facility back in 2012.
She said, "I lost my mind in private. I've gone through a lot, every transition and every feeling that goes along with being a child star... I can see now why at 33 things happened the way they did and all of these lessons I've learned. But it was hell at times."
Luckily, things are better for Rimes now, although her music career isn't what it used to be. The singer is no longer playing to sold-out arenas like she used to back in the early 2000s.
Rimes added, "I'm very happy now. We've been married for over five years and I have my two stepsons, but the shaming thing, that's where I had severe anxiety and depression... It was a mistake but it also led me to my marriage. I didn't know how to deal with that and it became this snowball effect."
