Jim Carrey says no to drugs

Jim Carrey says he is better able to deal with depression now he lives a life free of Prozac and alcohol.

In an interview with the CBS TV show 60 Minutes, the actor said he took Prozac for a long time but the drug didn't cure his depression.

"I had to get off at a certain point because I realised that ... everything is just okay," he said. His depression felt like "a low level of despair you live in where you're not getting any answers," he said. "But you're living okay and you can smile at the office".

"I am very serious about no alcohol, no drugs. Life is too beautiful."
