Gerard Butler’s Anxiety Addiction

Posted by Adam

Gerard ButlerGERARD Butler says he’s “addicted to anxiety”.

The Scottish actor — who stars opposite Jennifer Aniston in the upcoming movie The Bounty Hunter — admits he can’t help but worry.

“I was born into a world of anxiety,” he said. “I am slightly addicted to anxiety. When I’m feeling anxious, I’ll create more anxiety for myself.

“Like I might call all these people about what’s fun to do tonight and end up with four different options, which in itself would put me into a blind panic; but then I’ll make another four calls just to make it ten times more anxiety-ridden.”

Butler — who has been romantically linked to Aniston — recently admitted that being a global superstar has had a detrimental affect on his sex life.

“I think I get laid less now than I used to, because I’m way more paranoid now — look at f****** Tiger Woods!” he said

“I mean, I’m nowhere near as naughty as I used to be, partly because I did a lot of that when I was drinking.

“I’m not saying I’ve cut that part out. I’m certainly no angel. There’s no smoke without fire. But, here’s the thing: while they’re accusing me of that, I’ve probably been off somewhere else doing damage with someone else.

“I’m pretty smart like that. I know how to get away with these things.”
