Dennis Schouten does not want to die anymore at the moment, despite his earlier announcement to stop life. However, that development does not change his fight with Wilfred Genee.
At the beginning of last year it made the headlines at many Showmedia: the death wish of Dennis Schouten. In his book he indicated that he will put an end to his life within ten years because of feelings of emptiness, loneliness and unrest. According to him, it is getting worse, despite medication. “I know they don’t beat, but don’t get them out of my body.”
No more
Now Dennis doesn’t want to die anymore, he says in the Weekend. “Something very annoying happened last September – in the private sphere, with myself. What that is, I don’t want to share now. I was crying in my bed for a week. I then decided to open myself more and to talk to people. “
That makes him feel better. His death wish has disappeared. “And I do everything to keep it that way. It has nothing to do with the book that I am doing better now, but with that incident. Sometimes things have to go very badly to be able to open up to talk and gain insights. ”
Seeker
Is Dennis not afraid that people now find him a attention seeker? “I understand that, I also understand that people think the book was something commercial. But that is not the case. That book has opposed me in all sorts of ways. “
“I did it all myself, I am aware of that, but I experience it as very annoying. However, I try to be less and less concerned with what people think of me, I focus more on myself. ”
Quarrel with Wilfred
Dennis, who is currently discredited because of jokes about Dieuwertje Blok, states that his relationship with Wilfred Genee is still unchanged. “There are two people who helped me with my media career: Dominique Weesie and Wilfred Genee, and I have a fight with both.”
“What we have in common is that we can do something, but also very difficult people. Of course that is a shame, but the world is full of fighting. I tried to make it, but both gentlemen give no response. “
