“I’m less miserable, certainly,” admits Ewen McGregor in the new issue of Best Life.  “I was so unhappy.  I spent most of my time growing up in pubs, drinking booze and smoking, but I’m not interested in it anymore.  Not a lick.

Ultimately, those things make you depressed.  And whether I was smoking and drinking because I was depressed, or because those things were making me feel that way, it doesn’t matter.  I feel clearer now.

I don’t alter my state anymore.  I don’t get to a party and have a couple of glasses of wine to feel comfortable speaking to people.  Now, if I don’t want to speak to people, I won’t speak to them.”
