Eminem Dealing Well With His Depression
According to a close friend who spoke to The New York Daily News, Eminem is slowly coming to terms with the death of his best friend Proof and is finally starting to deal with his depression.
"He has been shut up in his house depressed," a friend told the paper. "He gained a ton of weight and didn't feel like working on anything."
In the last few weeks the rapper, born Marshall Mathers III, has started to feel better and has even signed up to a new movie role ("Have Gun - Will Travel").
Insiders say the rapper began suffering from depression over two months ago when his best friend Proof was shot and killed during a bar fight. At the same time, Eminem and his wife, Kim Mathers, filed for divorce for a second time.
"Obviously, he's grieving," Eminem's spokesman Dennis Dennehy told the newspaper." He is depressed as anyone would be if they lost someone that close. He had announced he was taking time off before this happened. It's his downtime."
Dennehy added that his client is conquering his depression without the help of antidepressants.
