Anthony Bourdain remembered for being open about his struggles

ANTHONY Bourdain’s heartbroken ex-girlfriend has shared some powerful words on his battle with depression and mental illness.

…In an interview withThe Guardian in 2013, Bourdain admitted he took drugs as early as he could.

“I deeply resented the relative stability at my house. I started taking drugs as soon as I encountered them,” the chef said.

It was Bourdain’s sudden death that has many of his fans reflecting on his earlier years — something the celebrity chef did himself when he visited Massachusetts in 2014 and explored the heroin epidemic in an episode of his show Parts Unknown.

While working in Provincetown, Massachusetts, in the 1980s, Bourdain developed an addiction to heroin, or a “taste for chemicals”, as he called it.

At the end of the episode, Bourdain sat in a room with other recovering heroin addicts and spoke to them about how he got past it.

“I looked in a mirror and I saw somebody worth saving, or that I wanted to at least try real hard and save,” he said.

“I look back on that, and I think about what I’ll tell my daughter. You know, that was daddy, ain’t no doubt about it. But I hope that I’ll be able to say that was daddy then, this is daddy now — that I’m alive, and living, and hope.”

In an interview with Biography.com in 2016, Bourdain spoke about quitting heroin in the 1980s and whether or not he had a “charmed” life.

“I don’t know about ‘charmed’. But I’m still here — on my third life, or maybe fourth. Who knows? I should’ve died in my 20s. I became successful in my 40s. I became a dad in my 50s. I feel like I’ve stolen a car — a really nice car — and I keep looking in the rear-view mirror for flashing lights. But there’s been nothing yet,” he said.

In a series of tweets after his death, Bourdain’s ex-girlfriend Paula Froelich called depression a “sneaky little, sticky bitch”.

“Here’s the thing about depression: it’s a sneaky little, sticky Bitch. You can be rich as hell, totally successful but still lonely AF (as f**k) and the ‘you’re nothing but a fraud’ voice only goes away when the ambien takes effect,” she wrote.

Before his death, Bourdain was also supporting his girlfriend Asia Argento after she told The New Yorker she had been raped by Harvey Weinstein.

Tweeting her article in October last year, Bourdain addressed his girlfriend and her allegations at the once-powerful Hollywood producer.

“I am proud and honoured to know you. You just did the hardest thing in the world,” he wrote.

I’LL DIE IN THE SADDLE’

Bourdain’s apparent suicide comes just days after designer Kate Spade, who built a fashion empire on her signature handbags, took her own life in her New York apartment.

Both Spade and Bourdain were vocal about their struggles with depression.

Just four months before the beloved chef died in his hotel room, he eerily spoke about death in an interview with People magazine.

“I’m going to pretty much die in the saddle,” he told the magazine in February while filming his show Parts Unknown.

Bourdain said he spent about 250 days a year on the road — but wasn’t planning on retiring from his globetrotting life any time soon.

“I gave up on that. I’ve tried. I just think I’m just too nervous, neurotic, driven,” he said.

“I would have had a different answer a few years ago. I might have deluded myself into thinking that I’d be happy in a hammock or gardening. But no, I’m quite sure I can’t.”

The beloved TV personality also spoke about the birth of Ariane and how she’d given him “some responsibility to at least try to live”.

“There have been times, honestly, in my life that I figured, I’ve had a good run — why not just do this stupid thing, this selfish thing … jump off a cliff into water of indeterminate depth,” he said.

But he also described himself to People as being “happy in ways that I have not been in memory” and “happy in ways I didn’t think I ever would be, for sure”.

Worst thing I ever did on Twatter was comment on one of his "drawings"….wasn't a bad comment, but HOLY HELL….

I was tormented for days, non-stop nasty vile horrible things said to me and the DM's.

That was my first taste of the libtard hate, and I learned my lesson…..

Used to love Jim Carrey….but like so many of "them", he has become a complete loser in my eyes….fuck him.
