British icon Robbie Williams is the cover-star for the December issue of Attitude.
In his interview he opens up about his struggles as a former sex addict.
He tells the magazine that sex addiction is commonly written off as fake and not taken seriously but in recent years it has taken a "shift in consciousness."
"Sex addiction does exist -- it does. It totally does," Williams tells Attitude. "Depression was a taboo subject, but it's not demeaned anymore. Slowly it is happening."
He also mentions that his fame made him realize just how vulnerable he can be when it comes to criticism.
"I'm not prepared emotionally for the job that I do," he says. "Being so public and being so big, I don't have the ability to protect myself from the words and the shame. It hurts."
