She also recalls being bullied by a bandmate and explains why she never spoke out at the time (via toofab)
"What made it so devastating is how important it was for me to be part of the band and to achieve things we wanted to achieve ... to think that I could have messed it up and lost it all, I begun to be really really hard on myself," she continued. "I'm literally all putting this all together in my head now, my therapist would be very proud of me.
"I was described as the plain one at the back that doesn't really do much, doesn't really say much," she added of media coverage back in the day. "And that's really hurtful when you're a young, aspiring pop star. That really hurts. I tried to make myself perfect. I ended up making myself really ill. I was anorexic for a few years. I was exercising obsessively and I ended up being incredibly depressed.
"We never really officially split up," recalled Melanie. "A decision was made, I stayed a bit longer than I wanted to and a lot of that was because I was so unwell. I was struggling being in the company of the girls, we were doing recording sessions separately. We had really gotten into that old rock and roll vibes. I knew I had to go, I had to sort myself out and I couldn't do it in that environment.
