Courtney Love has stopped taking her antidepressants while recording a new album in a bid to confront her inner demons.The rocker insists fans will get a glimpse of her true self with the release of forthcoming LP Nobody's Daughter next year (09) - because she refused to take any medicines to moderate her personality.She tells Britain's Elle magazine, "I'm off antidepressants for the moment because my album producer wants me to feel the rage, wants me to be really angry, wants me to face the demons. And I am so f*cking angry! "I'm getting back on them as soon as recording the album is finished. I'm not going to punch anybody, but I have to do two hours of exercise and chanting a day to feel good."Meanwhile in seperate news Courtney Love keeps a photograph of herself at her heaviest weight on her refrigerator door to stop herself from reaching inside.The rocker was only convinced she needed to shed excess weight after she struggled to fit into a designer dress at a magazine photoshoot.And since losing the weight, Love has kept the pictures from that day - to prevent her from losing her new slimline figure.She tells Britain's Elle magazine, "I was 192 pounds (87 kilograms) and doing Italian Vogue. The trouble is that I always think I look hot, no matter how heavy I am. But this was a punch in the face. They had an amazing Chanel couture dress and the only way it would work was for the stylist to cut out the entire back so it just covered the front of my thighs. That was it for me. The un-retouched pictures from that shoot are still on my fridge."But the singer is adamant it wasn't gorging on junk food that made her gain weight: "I got to that weight through macrobiotic food. Who knew you could get fat being healthy? It was yummy and I ate way too much. Trudie Styler and Sting eat that s**t, but they work out for like three hours a day."
