Reality television star Jessica Simpson has revealed that she visited a therapist to help her deal with pressure over the last year.
Simpson made the comments during an interview with Teen People magazine. When asked if she had sought the help of a therapist, Simpson said: "Yes I have".
"I respect knowledge of the psyche. I would be a therapist if I weren't an entertainer," she said.
The singer and actress said that she also writes in her personal diary as a way of dealing with the pressures of her industry and constant rumours about her marriage to Nick Lachey.
"It's a way for me to know myself, my problems and my issues. If I don't do this, I'll push everything back until I explode," she said.
Speaking about her husband, Simpson said: "Hopefully mine and Nick's story will continue for the rest of our lives, like what we vowed, through sickness and in health."
