Singer Robbie Williams did not care if he died at the height of his drug addiction.
The 39-year-old star, who has 14-month-old daughter Teddy with wife Ayda Field, had given up on life but now he has a much more positive outlook towards his life, reported Contactmusic.
"I'd given up, which is the scariest thing. I just didn't care. I don't think you are mentally sound when you are in the deepest depths of compulsion and addiction. You're not thinking with a sound head.
"But I just got into a place where I was like, 'It might be tonight and I don't care'. I care now. A lot," he said.
Though he experimented a lot with drugs, the 'Feel' hitmaker is relieved that he never enjoyed heroin as it could have made his problems much worse.
"I tried it but only 'cos we ran out of coke. It was like, 'Yeah, alright then, I'll have a go. It was horrible. It just made me throw up. That particular opiate didn't suit me that day. Thank God.
