好莱坞著名影星布拉德·皮特日前坦言他曾因吸食过量大麻导致抑郁症。

Brad Pitt, nominated earlier this week for an Oscar, has admitted that he suffered from depression after he smoked too much marijuana（大麻） .

Pitt, star of Moneyball, for which is nominated for Best Actor Oscar, said he got "really sick" of himself in the 1990s, when he was smoking too much marijuana.

"I was hiding out from the celebrity¹ thing, I was smoking way too much dope（笨蛋，麻醉药物） , I was sitting on the couch and just turning into a doughnut and I really got irritated with myself," he told The Hollywood Reporter.

"I got to: 'what's the point? I know better than this'."

He continued: "I used to deal with depression, but I don't now, not this decade – maybe last decade. But that's also figuring out who you are.

"I see it as a great education, as one of the seasons or a semester – this semester I was majoring in depression.

"I was doing the same thing every night and numbing² myself to sleep, the same routine – couldn't wait to get home and hide out.

"But that feeling of unease was growing and one night I just said; 'this is a waste'."

Pitt, whose long-term girlfriend, Angelina Jolie, said he pulled himself out of his funk after seeing extreme poverty while on a trip to Casablanca.

The Fight Club actor was commended for speaking so candidly³（坦白地） about his experience.
