Amy Winehouse insists her problems with drugs and alcohol stem from "boredom" and feeling like she has "nothing to live for".In a rare interview with Rolling Stone magazine, the Back To Black hitmaker reveals that after her husband Blake Fielder-Civil was jailed on charges of assault and perverting the course of justice in November 2007, she felt like her life wasn't worth living.The Grammy award-winning singer subsequently cancelled her U.K. tour and ended up in rehab in an attempt to kick her addictions.She was also treated at a London hospital for traces of emphysema last week (beg16Jun08).And Winehouse blames her downward spiral into drink and drugs on her current unhappy state.She says, "To be honest, my husband's away, I'm bored, I'm young. I felt like there was nothing to live for. It's just been a low ebb".But the star insists that although she was treated at a London clinic in March (08), she doesn't feel like she has fully completed a rehab programme.She adds, "I've never been to rehab, I mean, done it properly. I'm young, and I'm in love, and I get my nuts off sometimes. But it's never been like, 'Amy, get your life together.'" In related news the troubled singer Amy Winehouse has hit out at rumours she is suffering from an eating disorder - putting her skeletal figure down to stress.

The star has endured a variety of health problems so far this year (08), including a trip to rehab to kick her drink and drug addictions and a bout of highly contagious skin condition impetigo.

And last week (beg16Jun08), the Back To Black hitmaker was hospitalised after collapsing at her London home. She was subsequently diagnosed with traces of deadly lung disease emphysema.

But it is her super-skinny frame that has sparked major fears for her health - and led to rumours she is suffering from anorexia.

However, Winehouse has dismissed the speculation surrounding her size, insisting she is eating normally and actually trying to put on weight.

She tells Rolling Stone magazine, "I'm on a strict pizza diet. I'm on a strict put-weight-on diet. I love food. I'm just stressed out".
