Courtney Love considered committing suicide earlier this month.
The Hole singer - whose husband Kurt Cobain took his own life in 1994 -was feeling so unhappy she found herself thinking about jumping out of a window.
She told NME magazine: "I think a lot of people idealise suicide. I understand it. I had an episode two weeks ago when I was tempted to jump out of a window.
"I'm not saying why but the reason behind it is self-loathing. You know, wouldn't it be better if I wasn't there?
"I've always been pretty self-destructive. I need protection from myself."
Courtney - who recently lost custody of her 17-year-old daughter Frances Bean - admits she pushes herself too hard in her performances and worries it will eventually drive her insane.
She added: "I go to a place in performance which is like a crucifixion. It's insanely hard and I'm going to end up some f***ing nutjob from giving too much to audiences who don't know what they're getting."
