Britney Spears<\/strong> is opening up about her party days, too!<\/p>\n The reveals just keep coming as we get closer and closer to the release of the Toxic<\/em> singer\u2019s highly anticipated memoir, The Woman in Me<\/em>\u2026 and this time, it ain\u2019t about family, and it ain\u2019t about relationships — it\u2019s about how she coped.<\/p>\n In a new excerpt obtained by the New York Times<\/em>, the 41-year-old admitted that for a period of time, she leaned on the ADHD medication Adderall as her \u201cdrug of choice.\u201d Adderall is an amphetamine\/dextroamphetamine. Ideally it helps patients with attention deficit stay focused — but for a generic partier, it’s just another upper.<\/p>\n But according to her, that was all she was doing — as she says she \u201cnever had a drinking problem.\u201d That was in 2006, around the time she was photographed with Paris Hilton<\/strong> and\u00a0Lindsay Lohan<\/strong>, who were known drinkers. So of course that outing got tongues wagging about what Brit was doing. But when it comes to her<\/em> partying, she writes:<\/p>\n \u201cIt was never as wild as the press made it out to be.\u201d<\/p>\n She also makes clear she was never interested in taking “hard drugs.” In fact, the Circus<\/em> singer writes she actually took Adderall mainly to improve the state of her mental health. She explained:<\/p>\n \u201c made me high, yes, but what I found far more appealing was that it gave me a few hours of feeling less depressed.\u201d<\/p>\n Well, with the context of the bombshell news that Justin Timberlake<\/strong> got her pregnant and then pressured her into getting an abortion in 2000, and the world taking HIS side without knowing all the details, we can understand why she experienced depression. But we wish she’d gotten actual treatment for it, maybe some antidepressants.<\/p>\n See, Adderall is actually a really bad choice long term for treating depression. The withdrawal symptoms can be pretty pronounced, according to WebMD<\/em>. After being on it awhile patients experience severe exhaustion, sleepiness, and mood changes — even increased depression! So yeah, not a great choice as it turns out. We have to wonder how much it affected her mood in the mid-2000s coming down all the time. That was around when her dad put her under a conservatorship, after all.<\/p>\n What are your reactions, Perezcious readers?? Let us know in the comments down below!<\/p>\n
