Liv Tyler battles anxiety

28th April 2011

(Cover) - EN Showbiz - Liv Tyler is sometimes overcome with feelings of anxiety.

The 35-year-old actress has six-year-old son Milo with her ex, rocker Royston Langdon. The beauty, who has starred in a range of high-profile films including the Lord of The Rings and Armageddon, admits it can be difficult to juggle her family and work life. Liv used to be plagued by negative thoughts, but has learned to rely on her loved ones to help her battle any doubts.

"There are lots of moments where I am completely neurotic and very anxious. It's hard to be a mother and build a career, she said in an interview with the French edition of Grazia magazine. But now I manage to solve those types of crisis in one hour, on the phone, with a friend. Clearly I feel better since I reached 30. I feel more free, more relaxed, more self confident and I am less afraid of making mistakes."

Liv split from her husband Royston in 2008, although they have remained on good terms for the sake of their child. The actress-and-model stayed away from the film industry during the painful period in order to spend quality time with Milo. Liv says she now focuses on the work opportunities that allow her to be with her young son.

I wanted to spend time with Milo, especially since I broke up with Royston, she explained. The only thing that I allow myself, is to work with Givenchy. Its been eight years that I have worked for this house, so it has become a family story. (C) Cover Media
