She shocked many of her fans when she revealed early this year just how
much her mental health had suffered at the hands of her late, alcoholic
father. She had previously told Andrew Denton on Enough Rope about her
emotional outbursts, insecurities and the lasting trauma inflicted by

"And when I was 10, I won 48 cans of Coke for singing the Michael Jackson song Ben in a radio competition,” - Rebecca Gibney. |
Aria-award winner Rebecca Gibney is one of Australia's most loved
actresses, and after going for a paddle with her, I can see why.
Rebecca joined me for a short leg of my trip up the Tamar Valley,
her first time in a kayak. Rebecca took to paddling like a duck to
water, and within minutes was heading fearlessly for Whirlpool Reach.
The way Rebecca was kayaking, I had to check that she hadn't sent in a
body-double.
Rebecca and her partner Richard Bell live here, and their two year
old son was born in the valley. Rebecca doesn't consider herself a
greenie, but as a Mum and resident she feels obliged to speak
out. Her concerns include human health, water use, impact on the
"clean, green" brand enjoyed by the Tamar Valley, and the potential
impact on businesses who depend on that brand. |

"I've never felt very comfortable being in the public
eye. I always felt I was a bit of a fake because I never had acting
lessons and it wasn't something I'd wanted to do. Whenever I was out in
public and people recognised me, I felt the image wasn't good enough. I
didn't feel dressed up enough. I never felt pretty enough. "It was a turning point for me. I had to deal with
those fears or I probably would have run away somewhere and died. I was
in a bad way."
A female psychologist encouraged Gibney to confront
her self-loathing and phobias during two years of intensive therapy:
"She didn't pull any punches. I had to recognise why I was acting the
way I was.. what the negative patterns were from, and then let them
go."

A year ago, actor Rebecca Gibney was reviewing her performance
in an episode of the local crime drama Stingers, and was
horrified to discover that her Botox injections had been altogether
too successful. Her frown lines had been erased - along with much
of her capacity to show emotion.
