Whindersson Nunes reveals fight against drugs and defends Luísa Sonza from criticism

Comedian Whindersson Nunes, 26, revealed the fight against drugs in the final chapter of his biography “Vivendo Como Um Guerreiro”, written by Gabriel Chalita and released by Editora Serena. He said he immersed himself in drugs after the end of his marriage to singer Luísa Sonza, 23, in April 2020.

“When he broke up with Luísa, I also had my cliff [alusão à música de mesmo nome que Luísa gravou]. My way of dealing with these situations is very mine. I speak with silence. I talk to the pickup. And sometimes I say wrong. I admit that I was wrong. That drugs were destroying me.”

But Nunes reinforces that Luísa is not to blame for him sinking into drugs, because he was already a user even before meeting her, in 2017. “When I saw her, for the first time, I saw her in the effect of the drug. shining. It was the beginning of a journey.”

Social isolation due to Covid’s pandemic, which coincided with the end of the marriage, was another factor pointed out by the artist as the last thing to sink into drugs. He said that being alone and unable to leave the house made him take drugs without breaks.

“There were drugs and more drugs trying to stop whatever. A month. A month, and I’m sure it wasn’t Luísa to blame. And it wasn’t for her that I threw myself into this abyss. It was for me. It was for me. through a hole inside me. It was because of the absence of certainties in my life,” he says.

The comedian went back to talking about depression, which he had already revealed in interviews, and about suffering with an emptiness that seems endless. But he admitted that he’s not the only one suffering from the disease, that he has treatment, although he sometimes forgets about it.

“Bullet, LSD in large doses and a few others – I suffered so much and thought I deserved it. And the focus of my life turned to nothing, in the nights that didn’t dawn. The sensation, at times, was of a detachment of the soul from the body. And nothing kept me company”.

According to him, the effect of drug use increased “paranoia”, fears of violence and invasions of life and caused panic. The comedian claims that a friend named Robson took care of him and was instrumental in this phase so that the loneliness did not get worse. “I don’t wish this on anyone. My brain melting. My sleepless nights, tossing and turning. Accusing the floor of not fitting me. All very much suffered.”

The artist admits that he could have lost everything he gained like many people who immerse themselves in drugs. “And it’s my way of being a teacher that makes me tell this story and wish that other people don’t go through what I went through. Or, if they are going through it, that they have the strength to start over, as I did. As I have.”

Nunes said that he sometimes thought about going into hospital to control drug addiction, but friends said that this would be a plateful for the media. “I also didn’t want this to be a full plate for people to blame Luísa. No. It was definitely not Luísa’s fault.”

He spoke of the countless moments he lived with Luísa and how she helped him with his self-esteem: “And she will always be in me”. According to Nunes, the look in her eyes made him believe that, in fact, she was interesting and cool. “To this day I have a confidence that she brought to me.”

“I love Luísa and I want the spaces in her life to be always filled with love. Her success is somehow a scent that reminds me that it’s always good to take care of people. And I don’t want people to destroy what we live. “

He thanked his ex-fiancee Maria Lina Deggan, 23, mother of the child who died after complications from a premature birth, who helped him through this phase and who will always be part of his life.

“I’m not saying that someone comes into our life to solve our life. But I’m grateful to Maria. It was on this never-ending journey that I met Maria. My messes needed to be cleaned up. I was ashamed to be in that situation. And I got ready. “
