«Breaking News» Christopher Maloney reveals his depression is ‘in remission’ following brain shock therapy

Christopher Maloney has revealed that his depression is ‘in remission’ following brain shock therapy.

The X Factor celeb, 40, spoke candidly about his mental health ahead of the release of his new autobiography, Wildcard.

Talking to the Mirror Online, the Celebrity Big Brother star revealed how at one point his battle with depression ‘spiralled really out of control’ as he struggled to leave his home.

Hoping to ease his struggle, the TV personality underwent three months of brain shock treatment to stop his anxiety and depression.

‘It's called Smart TMS and what they do is put a magnetic pulse on your brain and send shocks through to reduce the activity to the right side of the brain which causes anxiety and depression,' Chris explained.

He added: 'It’s actually gone into remission because of it.’

Noting that writing his book was like its own form of therapy, Chris said: ‘It's about my anxiety and depression as well and how I managed to deal with that and with the online trolls and how I ended up having drastic surgery.’

Chris has spent over £80,000 on cosmetic treatments in total, and last year he flew to Poland with pal Danniella Westbrook in order to get a nose job, eye lift and hair transplant. 

Shock therapy - more accurately called electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) - was introduced in the 1930s as a treatment for various mental illnesses.

The treatment has a troubled history of abuse, but in its modern form, it has been a singular source of relief for patients with difficult-to-treat cases of depression, like that of the late actress Carrie Fisher.

Coronation Street actress Beverley Callard, 61, also underwent the treatment back in 2009 after collapsing on the soap's set. 

She previously revealed on This Morning that she thinks her illness has harmed her career.

Beverley said: 'When I was at my worst I had to pull out of two jobs and I know those companies will never employ me in future. I think there's a tendency to think that you [can] be flaky and unreliable, but of course really you're just the opposite.

'If you're ill you're ill.' 

Wildcard is available to download as an e-book now and on sale in book stores from Wednesday, November 21.

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.

Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
