Here's why Jim Carrey, Jenny McCarthy called it quits

Melbourne (ANI): Jim Carrey's depression came between him and Jenny McCarthy, friends close to the celebrity couple have revealed. According to Star Magazine, the two, who were together for five years, were having problems for quite some time, reports The Herald Sun. The mag claims the actor has admitted to struggling with depression.

"Jenny's done," claims a source. "They always seem so happy in public yet they have had their share of breaks. Jenny has been very supportive of Jim, but he has refused to take medication that seems necessary for his condition," the mag claims. “The crazy highs and dark lows were just too much for her. It was such an emotional roller coaster for her," says an insider. "When he'd get really down, he'd just disappear. He would hide out in a hotel or one of his homes, not answering her calls."

Carrey took to Twitter to reveal that his relationship with McCarthy had ended. He wrote: “Jenny and I have just ended our 5yr relationship. I"m grateful for the many blessings we"ve shared and I wish her the very best. S"okay! Be of good cheer folks! It"s a beautiful world, and we"re all gonna get what we need the most! (sic)"

McCarthy replied saying she was “grateful" for their time together and would continue to be “committed" to his daughter Jane, 22. She said: “I"m so grateful for the years Jim and I had together. I will stay committed to Jane and will always keep Jim as a leading man in my heart."
