Follow OK! on Threads here: https://www.threads.net/@ok_mag "Neighbours, everybody needs good neighbours – just a friendly wave each morning, helps to make a better day," – so say the sugar-sweet lyrics to the theme song of the iconic Australian soap, Neighbours. If only life was really that easy, thinks Paul Keane, who played loveable Des Clarke on the show back in the 1980s. For Paul, now 65, hit rock bottom when he should have been enjoying the height of his fame, and even his co-stars Guy Pearce (who played Mike) and Craig McLachlan (Henry) couldn't help make it a better day.
Plagued by drink, drugs and mental health issues, Paul lost everything – his home, his family and his acting career. Paul was one of the 12 original Neighbours characters created by TV producer Reg Watson, and starred in Neighbours from its very first episode, in March 1985. Catapulted to fame both in the UK and his native Australia, life should have been great for the young actor, whose character famously married his stripper girlfriend, Daphne, in a fairytale TV wedding.
Yet, after leaving the show in 1990, he was hit by terrible depression, at a time when mental illness wasn't openly discussed like it is today. Speaking in 2015, he told Australia's Herald Sun: “I have no filter anymore.The last bastion of taboo is mental health and I think it’s important to be honest about it. I have been to hell.
“I have seen things you wouldn’t believe, been in hospitals that are like horror stories. But I have survived.” Paul told how he self-medicated to cope with his problems after leaving the soap, using alcohol, painkillers and amphetamines. He also attempted to take his own life.
