Britney Spears has reportedly turned to medication to help her get through her split from Kevin Federline.The 25-year-old singer, who filed for divorce last month, has been seen carrying several types of anti-depressants in her handbag.On November 27 Britney dined at Dan Tana's restaurant in West Hollywood - where she was also spotted carrying a glass of red wine out to her car before taking the wheel - and during a visit to the powder room a fellow diner caught a glimpse inside her handbag. The source told In Touch Weekly magazine: "It looked like a pharmacy in there - I have never seen so many pills."There was a bottle of Paxil, an antidepressant, and a bottle of Xanax, which treats anxiety, that she took out and put on the counter."The directions for both these drugs state they should not be mixed with alcohol.Britney - mother to 15-year-old Sean Preston and three-month-old Jayden James - has now promised to curb her hard partying and apologised to her fans.
