Annie Lennox Admits to Suicidal thoughts
Annie Lennox has admitted to having suicidal thoughts at times through loneliness.
She blames being brought up as an only child for her feelings of isolation, apparantly.
Just wondered what everyone else thought of this? I personally think you can feel just as lonely surrounded by people you don't connect with or get on with as if you are actually alone.
I like Annie Lennox a lot, but have always thought, judging from her demeanour and the lyrics she writes that she may be prone to depression.

She may have felt lonely and she may of felt suicidal however why the need to tell everybody, has she no mates.
By the way has she an album due out.
I like her - she's not normally one to bleat about her troubles in public.
And yes she is weighted by heavy thoughts ,bu unlike other famous people, not only about me me me, but about the tragic things in world.She is a serious campaigner for justices,always has been. Kids,AIDS,hunger,environment, you name it ,she ponders deeply.
But does she have something to promote??
I agree with you with everything, especially about feeling lonely in a crowded room and not connecting with anyone. That is one of the times when I personally have felt my loneliest in the past.
I feel sorry for Annie. She's a talented singer and song-writer, and she can act too. So often though, people who are as talented as she is do tend to have to grapple with many demons.
Annie has not been dropped - see other thread in MUSIC for press release from Annie and BMG
Please can we stiock with facts!!
Hope you'll forgive me for not being able to read every thread on these boards before posting though:) It wasn't an intentional deviation from the facts:).
I have forgiven you xx:)
I deeply respect Annie for she is probably one of the most genuine people in the celebrity world that do campaign. Her performance at Live8 said it all for me. I also at time understand what Annie means at being lonely in a crowded room, you do feel like the room is empty.
Sweet Dreams is ok, but the rest :sleep:
That's what I think too. Hands up who hasn't had suicidal thoughts?? :rolleyes:
Why do these celebrities feel the need to make such pronouncements about their lives. I just don't get it.
I'd be surprised if the actual figure wasn't significantly higher, imo. More like 80% I would think.
true...admitting to ideation still has enough of a stigma attached to it that people mightn't feel comfortable enough to admit it. People assume ideation means you're going to actually kill yourself.
