Lottie Moss says she felt 'numbed' by ADHD medication

Celebs Go Dating star Lottie Moss has exclusively opened up to OK! about her ongoing battle with mental health, admitting that though she's doing better, one certain medication results in some unwanted side effects. "I tried loads of different medications for my ADHD and it just numbed me," the 25 year old reality star said. "It made me less of a fun person.

I don’t like medication and I don’t like something altering how I think. I think my mental illness is what gives me the edge." Speaking about the lessons that last year's stint in rehab for cocaine addiction taught her, Lottie added: "Just sitting with yourself is so important – being with your own thoughts.

I have cut a lot of toxic people out of my life. I had loads of toxic friends and they just brought me down. "Now I’ve got rid of them, a weight has lifted from my shoulders and I feel so much better about myself." Looking back at that difficult time, Lottie - who this week broke her silence on Adam Collard 'romance' after 'secret dates' - told us: "I didn’t know I had depression.

I’ve always been the kind of person to say, “I’m fine, I’m good”, when I’m not. "I never wanted people to think, “She is struggling.” "People feel like I am this confident person, but I put on a show for the cameras." And addressing how she now copes with a rough patch, she said: "I am super ADHD [and] unmedicated, so it is hard for me to meditate.
