Singer/songwriter MARY CHAPIN CARPENTER suffers from clinical depression – an illness which has plagued her since childhood.
The 48-year-old country star kept her battle private until last month (APR06), when she revealed her lifelong secret at a book festival. The singer explains, “I was so…afraid people would find out.” She adds her illness, “Is so mysterious to me. It’s caused me a lot of pain.”
