SHIELDS ATTACKS CRUISE FOR CRITICISING HER DRUG USE

LATEST: Actress BROOKE SHIELDS has lambasted former pal TOM CRUISE for criticising her "misguided" use of drugs to combat her post-natal depression.

Cruise - who claims to have helped people fight drug addictions through his controversial Scientology religion - recently attacked the SUDDENLY SUSAN star for becoming dependant on Paxil, following the birth of her daughter ROWAN.

But Shields is disgusted by the TOP GUN star's "dangerous" comments and took a swipe at his Scientology beliefs, by saying she wouldn't take advice from someone who devotes his life to creatures from outer space.

She fumes, "His comments are dangerous. He should stick to saving the world from aliens.
Shields is currently weaning herself off her medication so she and husband CHRIS HENCHY can have another child.

Once again, hurtful words ends another friendship.

Yeah,this is going to be another Christina-Britney rivalry.

TripperFan · 05-30-2005, 04:10 PM

Its not a rivalry - they're not in competition for audiences.

I don't blame Brooke one bit and am glad she's spoken up and defended herself. He's the one that embarrassed a "friend" in the press. Hopefully he'll get the message (I'm sure his website has been inundated with pissed off fans) and just shut up and stick to his alien religion.

Good for you Brooke

I'm glad she's said something back to him. He deserves it.

Good. Tom Cruise is an ass wipe anyway.

Brian Damage · 05-30-2005, 06:21 PM

I'm glad she spoke up.

Way way back in 1969 when I had my first baby( I was only 19) I had what is now called post-mortum depression. In those days there was no such thing! I thought I was a terrible human being for feeling this way. I cried all the time and thought that there was something totally wrong with me! I had this beautiful baby girl and I thought that my life as I knew it would never be the same. It wasn't of course. But luckily I and my lovely daughter survived. I was so young. Nobody understood my depression and I tried to hide it. But now my daughter is a beautiful 35 year old woman with a husband and two gorgeous children. I am so grateful for them! Tom Cruise is an idiot. Yes, postmortum depression is a real thing. I support Brooke and Marie Osmond (who had a severe case) totally. I was strong enough to overcome this on my own but I realize that that not all women can.
I can only say that please support these women! This can be a very real problem. Please help them!

Woohooo!! You go Brooke!

No one deserves to be attacked like that and I'm glad she stood up for herself. And for everyone else on antidepressents/antianxiety pills.

lol...I think you mean post-partum. Post-mortum would mean you were dead. And that you were a ghost using the internet...which would actually be pretty cool.

But I totally agree. I think PPD is one of those things that a lot of women don't want to talk about, and it's more prevalent than you think. But just like all other depressions, people without it don't understand it at all.
