DEPRESSION ANXIETY AND ADDICTION

Linda Robson is one of TV's most recognisable stars. However, it hasn't always been smooth- sailing for the Birds of a Feather actor, 64, who has suffered anxiety and OCD, and admits she feared she was on the way to being an alcoholic'.

As things spiralled, Linda admitted to drinking a bottle of wine a night, while her family tried to stop her buying alcohol. The Loose Women panelist even asked strangers to buy booze for her. I'd find money and say, "Excuse me, I've lost my key and can't get out. Would you be able to go and get me a little bottle of vodka from round the corner?" she said.

'MY BODY WENT INTO SHOCK WHEN I QUIT'

A couple of people did. But one day, I asked a man to do it and he turned out to be from an alcohol crisis place that my family had called to come and help me.'

The dark period culminated with Linda suffering a breakdown in 2018 during a girls' trip to Ibiza, triggered by her anxiety and OCD, and a reaction to antidepressants. Thankfully, after a two-month stint in rehab, she was able to bounce back from her ordeal.
