Robbie Williams Reveals Scurvy Diagnosis Amid Health Struggles

Robbie Williams has opened up about his health struggles, revealing he was diagnosed with scurvy after taking an appetite-suppressant drug that led to significant weight loss. The singer, who lost nearly 28 pounds, admitted to stopping eating and consequently suffering from a vitamin C deficiency, which he humorously referred to as a '17th-century pirate disease.' Williams also shared that he has recently experienced a resurgence of depression, feeling 'sad, anxious, and depressed,' despite a decade of stability. His long-standing battle with body dysmorphia has skewed his perception of others' concerns about his weight, interpreting them as validation of his appearance. As he navigates these challenges, he is also preparing for a stadium tour and working on an art exhibition. Williams emphasized the impact of his weight on his mental health, noting that being overweight severely affects his well-being.
