Beyonce was headed for a breakdown

Thursday, November 20, 2008, 08:37

Beyonce has revealed that she worked so hard when she was younger that she believes she was on the road to a nervous breakdown.

"Years ago, I was definitely headed for a breakdown," she revealed in the November issue of Gotham magazine.

"Just way too much work - my life was my career and I had no other life. It started when I was 15 and I hadn't learned the importance of balance, making sure I took a day off. I didn't know what 'no' was, what boundaries were."

But nowadays, after more than a decade in the showbiz industry, the 27-year-old singer-actress knows better.

"At this point, I know that after a certain amount of time I have to go home," she admitted.

"I know what I like now. It just takes life experience to get a good balance. When you're young, you don't know what relaxes you."
