  Ryder credited an “incredible therapist” who told her to imagine being kinder to her younger self. Winona Ryder said that the period of time following her early 1990s split from Johnny Depp was like her film “Girl, Interrupted” in real life.  In an interview with Harper’s Bazaar, Ryder reflected on the years following her breakup from Depp, who she was with from 1989 to 1993.

The couple dated for five months before they got engaged, according to Harper’s Bazaar, and costarred in the 1990 Tim Burton film “Edward Scissorhands. ” Depp tattooed the phrase “Winona Forever” on his arm, but when they split, he famously changed the tattoo to “Wino forever. “According to Ryder, the time following her split from Depp amid the pressure of Hollywood fame was difficult.

“That was my ‘Girl, Interrupted’ real life,” she told Harper’s Bazaar. “Girl, Interrupted,” released in 1999 and adapted from Susanna Kaysen’s memoir of the same name, stars Ryder as a teenager who spends 18 months in a hospital following a suicide attempt and is eventually diagnosed with borderline personality disorder.  Ryder said that she worked with “an incredible therapist” during that period who pushed her to imagine being kinder to her younger self.

Barry King/WireImage”I remember, I was playing this character who ends up getting tortured in a Chilean prison,” Ryder told Harper’s Bazaar, referencing her character in the 1994 film adaptation of Isabel Allende’s “The House of the Spirits. ” “I would look at these fake bruises and cuts on my face, and I would struggle to see myself as this little girl.

‘Would you be treating this girl like you’re treating yourself?'” she continued. “I remembered looking at myself and saying, ‘This is what I’m doing to myself inside. ‘ Because I just wasn’t taking care of myself.

“Ryder said that her “The Age of Innocence” costar Michelle Pfeiffer also helped to get through the difficult period of her life, telling her that “this is going to pass. “”There’s this part of me that’s very private,” Ryder said. “I have such, like, a place in my heart for those days.

But for someone younger who grew up with social media, it’s hard to describe. “Ryder previously provided a witness statement supporting Depp during his unsuccessful high-profile libel case in 2020 against the publisher of British tabloid The Sun, which referred to him as a “wife beater” in a story. In it, she said that she was “shocked, confused, and upset” by Amber Heard’s allegations of physical abuse against Depp while the two were married.

The “Stranger Things” star was not called as a witness in Depp and Heard’s recent defamation trial in Virginia, which ended in June with jurors finding both Depp and Heard liable for defamation against one another. On Friday, the judge presiding over the trial finalized the jury verdict, requiring Heard to pay just over $10 million in damages to Depp and and requiring Depp to pay $2 million in damages to Heard.
