Johnny Depp indicated regarding his detoxification during his relationship with ex-wife Amber Heard, informing the court that while Heard went to initially really helpful, she later on came to be hard to manage while he was detoxing from substance abuse. At one point Depp alleged that Heard declined to provide him the medicine he needed during the detoxication.

For the people who wonders why JD smiles while recounting all these bad memories, it is because he is anxious and nervous. Many people smile or laugh when they tell their bad stories because that’s a coping mechanism to prevent themselves from crying. That’s my way too when I get anxious, scared and nervous.
It is obvious that amber heard is an abuser (she abused him emotionally, mentally, physically, financially , etc)
This breaks my heart. Opiate withdrawal is the worst pain, not just physically, but mentally and emotionally. She is a monster!
This is one of the sickest things I’ve ever heard. How could someone be so wicked and cruel and do that to the man they’re supposed to support and love? Just disgusting.
I’m hope when this trial ends, Johnny reads some of these comments and realizes how much support his fans have given him. I hope this strengthens his portfolio and he’s easy able to find work after this. We all make mistakes in relationships, but his is most definitely not abuse. I think he has worked through quite a few issues and it really feels in many cases he tried to insulate Ms. Heard from many of his faults when he could. Johnny, if you read this, know that we’ve been thinking about you and we hope you can come out of this with a positive attitude and a hopeful outlook!
As a recovering opiate addict…I’m absolutely heartbroken for him. I wouldn’t wish dope sickness on my worst enemy.
This is why we believe Johnny! He tells the truth even when it’s hard to talk about it. No BS here! He’s a hero to people getting off chemical dependency. Drugs are known to be prevalent in the music & movie profession. Praise Johnny for this success. I imagine this was a terribly excruciating process to get clean. The world needs more Heroes like Johnny Depp
This isn’t the only time he’s talked about the simple science behind these things, and I can tell he actually enjoys explaining that part and how he dealt with it (he even smiles for a second). It seems to me that he would actually make a really really good addiction counselor, he has the experience, the curiosity, and the kind and humble demeanor.
I’m right there with you. I’ve been clean for six and a half years now and still certain smells bring flashbacks of being dope sick.
I’m proud of you! Stay strong ❤️
To everyone here struggling with addiction, I hope one day you can be free. To everyone who had overcome it, I’m so proud of you and I hope you continue to be free.
Can we talk about how humble he is? Out of everything going on in this case, he still finds it in him to be embarrassed about owning an island 😭😂 like Johnny we all know you’re rich! You’re one of the best actors of all time! I’ve had to deal with someone like amber and God knows I’d buy an island in a heartbeat if it would get me away from them, if only for a little while 😂
I keep imaging what Robert Downey Jr. endured to get clean. How his friends HELPED him along his journey. Where this person, who purportedly loves him, does nothing but cause him more pain.
Same here ladies. Congratulations to both of you! I’m so glad to be free of opioid addiction 🙌
Glad you’re recovering
As a professional nurse, I can only say that this is a crime to refuse to treat someone under such a condition. Again it only shows how sick AH is. Justice for Johnny.💔
As a nurse It is a crime to withhold medication from a patient during this absolutely horrendous painful process. She is wicked evil
He was reversing the pain receptors. This is absolutely disgusting. This would also lower his blood pressure fast! She could of killed him. He was tortured by this sadist
His description of detox is spot on.
We all know she only went there with him so he could take pictures of him in his most vulnerable state and use it against him later ,what an awful human being.
Watching her face as he is testifying. She enjoys knowing she inflicted suffering and pain on him. Sickening. Why couldn’t she have called the Dr. and the nurse? How can you not want to help the person you claim to love? She seems only to care about herself.
Someone who suffered from addiction . He is spot on when it comes to saying it can’t judge it by clocks . People are different weights and sizes and used diff amounts .
If they tell me to give the medication at 4 oclock I will stick to that. Im not sure why its cruel. Maybe the instruction should have been: give the medicine when the drug rehab patient asks for it
Hero ? JD ?
I can’t imagine treating a total stranger, much less the man I claim to love, that way. A few times during this trial I’ve come close to tears, but hearing this did it for me. I hope that after all this mess is over, that Mr. Depp can move forward and finally start to truly heal. He seems like a strong man, so I’m betting that he does!
This poor man, my heart bleeds for what he has gone through at her hands. He is an incredible person, humble and honest. I hope he genuinely realises how many people in the world are behind him.
YES
YUP
He will not read your comment darling. IPV
Physical Abuse: throwing things, destroying property
Emotional Abuse: constant put downs or criticisms, name calling, acting superior, minimizing the abuse or blaming you for their behavior, gaslighting, excessive jealousy, manipulation, accusations and keeping constant tabs on your whereabouts
Financial Abuse: Financial abuse occurs in 99% of domestic violence cases and can include: giving you an allowance then take it away (letting your friends stay for free so they ow you) running up debt, interfering with your job (get you a film and take it away ?)
Psychological Abuse: causing fear by intimidation; destruction of property.
And to spend his money
He is not a hero! He’s a man who recovered. Praise God! Not Johnny.
I have a friend who went through withdrawals. She did it on her own and it was absolutely horrendous. I was there with her. For Amber to refuse Johnny his medication was evil. That was not love.
She’s an actor it’s difficult to know whether she seems to be about to laugh or cry
this is more than disgusting. People who have never experienced this kind of pain can’t even imagine how horrible it is. like he said, it’s nothing i’ve ever felt before.. you feel like a prisoner in your own body and you can’t leave, the only way out are those meds or heroine or whatever you’re on and it’s the worst feeling in the world. it’s more than disgusting, it’s pure cruelty to do that to someone else knowing they need it. nothing else can help you in that moment. that amber did that shows how cruel she really is and how she liked it being in control and having him suffer, she probably loved it when he had to beg for his meds, she enjoyed it. if you love someone really, you couldn’t see them in such pain and you would give them their meds. this is nothing someone who loves someone else would do.
@Boo 2 that still doesn’t help explain the fact that Amber did not contact his nurse or any medical professionals out of concern and simply let him be and suffer. On top of that she wasn’t even supposed to be there.
That is true,
I don’t consider myself a fan . Only person I’m a fan of is musician Hozier. Actors …. there are some I like a lot, some that are ok, and some I don’t really like , but that is it. Still, I beleive him. I’m not a fan, and still I beleive him. Because of all the evidence, audios etc. And that is the reason I hope his life and careere from now on will be amazing . He deserves it .
Well she is a narcissist so of course she gets a kick out of it. The doctor that testified as a witness for Johnny Depp did an exam on Amber Heard and the results that she got were that Amber probably has a personality disorder which would be why she acts the way that she does. The thing is she’ll never end up getting help if she really does have that disorder because she seems to think that everyone else is in the wrong but her.
@Katarina Dorotić Same here…I’m not a fan of either of them. I actually believed her at first but still kept an open mind when the trial started. Now I 100% believe him. Too many testimonies, recordings, suspicious pictures, etc prove she is lying. I hope he wins but I know defamation is hard to prove. He told the world his story though…so he wins regardless.
@Katarina Dorotić Not to mention, she has a history of abuse and he does not. No man decides to become an abusive rapist in his 50s.
Suppressing emotions and inappropriate facial expressions are more common after trauma. You see it frequently in suppression disorders. His rocking, his use of raw language support his version of the story if you’ve ever had complex PTSD or taken care of patients who have it.
@gwyn.bWell in reality, unless we were actually there, we have no idea what he personally went through. We have no idea what his smiles were about. So nobody can say either way what he is thinking.
💝
@Boo 2 I agree that if the meds were to be given at certain times that’s what you follow. But, if you see someone you love going thru so much pain, wouldn’t you call the doctor to see what you could do???? I was married to an alcoholic who tried “cold turkey ” the FIRST time at home. It was so emotionally painful for me to witness what he was going thru that I called 911. He was administered drugs and was taken to a rehab clinic. They told me if I hadn’t called he might have died! Sorry about my lengthy personal reply but I wanted to explain my criticism of Heards lack of compassion.
Oh yes just so disgusting that she stayed on the proper dosage schedule for his withdrawal.
This woman is a true evil!
@Danielle if a person is delegated to hand a person prescription drugs, than yes this is abuse and it’s a crime … she was his his wife she could take on responsibility. now if you don’t believe this ask your own doctor….
@The Universe is Me I get that but I can’t ignore the fact that he helped out so many people & has been very selfless in many situations. I’m not trying to be ignorant of the fact that he is rich & famous but he’s got my vote for the humblest famous person I’ve seen😂✅
That dead face she had is unbelievable
This time he knows for certain,the fact that he’s talking about this painful process in front of a world shows how much he’s a humble down to earth person, I’ve been in this situation & clean for 11years I’m feeling him with my whole existence,not a easy matter to come over or talk about it outside of NA/AA,btw I can’t understand how am i missed this part,i hope this demon woman out of johnny’s life,my God I’ve remember that suffering,
@knightfive They wouldn’t be grabbing anyone, they barely have the energy to stand up, let alone grab someone around the neck.
It’s sadistic. She was probably savoring, and getting off, on the power she had over him at that point, and it says more about her horrible personality than any deposition can.
She’s not a damaged person, she’s just a bad person.
@BigBuzzyBumbleBee Agreed. But she also would not want him to get clean. In my view, with him addicted, she had power…he was defenseless when he was high/drunk. With him sober, her abuse would be all the more obvious. She had to get him to fail.
@Sweety D That’s true, but at the same time, lots of times when someone experiences very traumatic events that they are uncomfortable talking about, as stated above, inappropriate behaviors or facial expressions do occur. It’s the body’s way of trying to stop you from talking about it, in a sense. I don’t know the science behind it all, but as a person who has experienced traumatic events and has had to talk about them, I relate to @gwyn.b statement 100%..
@BigBuzzyBumbleBee when you put it that way , yeah that makes a lot of sense . It’s a struggle
@BigBuzzyBumbleBee thank you !
I smile and laugh outloud out nervousnes is so embarresing. People take it wrong and get mad.😁
As a person that deals with addiction…what a horrible person she is!! How could she even do that to someone you so called love and is trying to get better! She seemed to enjoy it! I admire him so much! Hardest thing to ever do is to reach out for help and get clean. I pray he does get sober and live with someone who loves him and appreciates him.
@BigBuzzyBumbleBee she probably wanted him to relapse to keep him medicated. That way it’d be easier for her to manipulate and control him. That’s gotta be part of the reason she didn’t give him the medicine. She wanted his withdrawals to be so terrible that he wouldn’t try to quit ever again. She’s pure evil and wicked individual. I wouldn’t be shocked if she ended up killing JD. People better stay clear of this psycho from now on. She ruined her own life and tried to ruin a man just because he didn’t want to be with her anymore. She disgusts me
@Jacob exactly
Absolutely!!
Thank you
J.D FOR YOUR TESTIMONY OF YOUR HORRIFYING DETOX, may you stay strong & love yourself enough Never to go back ! Blessings to you this day forward 💖
@Pamela Meadows I take the subutex,,which is similar to suboxone,,I agree, the doctor should have given him or put him on a methadone treatment,,the phenobarbital would make him sleep. And the lithium,,I don’t understand that one either.but whatever,,he should have had that nurse with him there too….poor man..he suffered immensely..
@Kaylee Peters I agree,, if he needed at that moment then do it,,I think he was without it for a few long hours,,it depend how much opiate he took to begin with, plus alcohol is a factor too…
@Corinne Robinson oh dear Corinne. That sounds awful. Such a hero you are. I mean it. Well done!!! I wish you all peace and laughter. You are so strong.
@Corinne Robinson fine. I trust you I believe you ! Hope you are doing ok. Is there a way to put this thing down forever ?
@Corinne Robinson are you saying that when JD was asking in the hospital bed with his cut off finger he was not begging for drug because his body was craving it but he wanted to get high ? Or I am confused. Which drug does what ?
@Solo Bano lol he was on suboxone. That gives you no high whatsoever, it just halts the suffering so you can taper sloely. And if you can’t figure out why someone like her would want to use something like that to control her victims… I’m not even sure what to say, lol.
@Boo 2 I’d call the dr.if he was begging & sick. But it shows detox should only b done ip
@Boo 2 law enforcement usually have no compassion 4 drug addicts & have no real med. training. Yeah so I think ur opinion is not worth anything.
@Boo 2 yep…no opinion from cops, no med ecperience
@Boo 2 ur sensitive? Everything she said is fact! I remember in my criminolgy course they said cops often have the same traits as criminals. I’ve known some great cops but they have the humility to seek med info in a toxic situation…. Not say “NOPE….rules are rules”
@Corinne Robinson yess i am .i m so hurt me
@Boo 2 if not sure call the nurse or doctors, surely she didn’t do that
@knightfive Have you ever seen someone go through heroin detox…? they can’t barely stand up, they have seizures, body cramps that force them to bend over in half, they curl up on the floor, they crawl their way ,they vomit, they cry, screem, they have diarrhea, all at the same time..that is way there are specific meds, usually syntetic opiaces , to help them to cope with the strong symptoms.. so yes..everything he said is nothing but the danm truth
Marissa – Look it up. Definition 4 in Merriam-Webster:
4 : something reprehensible, foolish, or disgraceful
It’s a crime to waste good food.
People like AH think it’s all about themself.
She is very hateful towards him.. this is abuse at its worse
Been there
The best way to describe a detox i…pain is unbelievable and it lasts for a year….you have to be so strong to get through it …been there
Oh my god this man is a hero…
@That Other Guy That is EXACTLY what it is. Depp is delighted he’s convinced so many, and he’s their IDOL. His star was beginning to fade there as he is getting old. He’s literally old enough to be Amber’s father. He can’t play the young swashbuckling pirate any longer. He’s too old. Though, people still love him.
Most hate Heard; sad that he ruined her life. No one wants to be with her, for fear of the Depp fanatics who are ready to pounce on anyone who dares to insult their idol. Execs don’t want to hire her, or anyone who’s known to defend her. That’s why idol worship is in God’s commandments, against it….idol worship.
Strange, but most who believe and love Depp are idol worshippers. He’s awful for doing this to her, but he married her, though they were only married a couple of years before he tired of her.
@Bridget Gardner No, because it’s dupers delight. He gets off on it. I was married to a man like him. Everyone loved him, but there came a time they did learn that he was rotten. Amber is still young, she’ll be OK. Depp has had his day in the sun, what else can he do? He can be an OLD Buccaneer, a teacher of other cyborgs, heh?
Ironically, it was Musk who said, “Are humans already cyborgs?
Experts say the technology is impressive but called the timeline “delusional.” “We are already a cyborg,” Musk said. “People don’t realize — we are already a cyborg because we are so well integrated with our phones and our computers.” So true, so true. We live in a time when fiction is real life, and real-life is fiction. Depp is both, Heard is done.
@Karma Reighs she was NOT the abuser. She’s 5′ 8″ Approx. 173 cm and weighs 54 Kg approx. to 119 LBs. to Depp’s phat arse. I’m watching Aquaman right now, I want to get back to it. She looks ravishing, so young and supple. She’ll eventually be OK, she has a lot of life left. Depp is done, he’s no longer the leading man type.
@iamlost2 lmfao please do cause YouTube fried ur very last braincell
A h needs to be in jail not given someone their medical is abuse it one hour before time or one hour after time she needs to be in jail
@Ocrilat beyond true and some of the more shady/sleazy agents and managers of big stars prefer to find a way for them to get addicted and effed up on everything/something for the exact same reasons. Easier to rip them off and skim as much dough out of them until they’re all used up like they did to tons of big name musicians and I’ll just throw Amy Winehouses name in the hat as a good example of that type of dirty and heinous act towards another human. Very lame people and a waste of good skin and oxygen imho
Sick n cruel. Wow!!!!!! So so sad
Thank God for the strength he gave him to overcome those hurdles in his life n he is here telling his story. Hope he gets someone to honestly love n cherish him for a life time.
@The Universe is Me wow yr green eyed monster jealousy shows
@The Universe is Me wow yr just a nasty person full of jealousy and insecurities because he is so loved loved and you cant stand it
He had his Island years before her
@Cerri Berry absolute not
Essa mulher brincou com os sentimentos dele, ele a amava, dava tudo amor e conforto e essa bruxa não correspondeu, já foi Com interesse no $ dele.
