Kelly Clarkson has been through a very public and nasty divorce battle and fans are witness to that.

But now, the starlet is opening up about how she managed to get through that very painful and heartbreaking phase of her life. And the answer just might surprise you.

The celebrated singer and famous talkshow host add that life sometimes throws so many curve balls in your direction that it’s hard to even begin to imagine what to do next.

So for her, true comfort was found in numbing the pain that was sometimes too much for her to bear. And that easy way out in such a scenario for her was anti-depressants.

The singer went as far as to mention that this was the biggest and best decision of her life. And she wouldn’t rethink it for a second. And right now, when she looks back at it all, she feels that she wouldn’t have made it if it was not for her Lexapro.

“It’s just so tragic. And I am proud to say that making it out through something like that was one of my biggest accomplishments”- she continued.

Kelly and Brandon Blackstock’s custody battle was publicized by many people. It was just so worrying for many to see the couple that they adored go through something as serious as this.

But it was Kelly who triumphed in the end. She got her kids but was forced to pay a huge share of money and assets to her former husband whom she had no interest in seeing ever again.

Taking Lexopro for two months straight was not only shocking for some people to hear but others were also baffled as to how bad the ordeal must have been for her to go to this extent.
