" Without mincing words, "I fell into depression, I was treated by a psychologist." She spun all wrong: "I've never understood why so why not before, not after it." The only certainty was wrong: "I was not satisfied with my life and football, that's my job. My legs were trembling suddenly. " Even stronger than the goalkeeper planet can find themselves in the abyss. Always "suddenly" surfaced, "just where I was afraid to go, the European Championship in Portugal." While Italy and Denmark, "a horrible game": in fact, "was the only one who smiled." From there begins the history, withdrawn in 178 pages of "Number 1", the autobiography published by Rizzoli hour (16 €), together with the journalist of the Corriere della Sera, Roberto Perrone.
Gigi Buffon, who had happened to her?
"It was a very dark, really. Why then I am a cheerful, optimistic, very unselfish. But when you live such a thing, it is clear that these qualities go to hell, to put it bluntly. "
Wrote: "It was as if my head were not mine, but someone else, like I always elsewhere."
"You have to live with Gigi in which you do not reflect. And until it happens to you, do not understand the importance of the situation. To think that, as a boy, in my ignorance, I wondered how that had rich people, or normal, to fall into depression. "
Money and fame did not lacking.
"Indeed. Then you understand that speeches are all silly and superficial. Because there may be many reasons: even if you are rich and acclaimed, then this condition becomes the norm. And like all who have different jobs, there is sometimes a lack of a stimulus, or you're not happy with your life. "
For example?
"Maybe because you realize that you can not find the right woman, or you can not win the Champions League. Or you can not appreciate what you have. Then you stop and is overwhelmed by doubts and thoughts for a moment and fall into depression. It was really a bad period. "
What wanders through your mind?
"I remember that I said to myself:" What I care to be Buffon? "Because then the people, the fans, rightly, does not matter a damn how are you. It is seen as the player, the idol, so no one tells you: "Hey, how are you?". "
chased by the crowd, but yourself.
"Everyone will say the same thing: Come on Gigi, I recommend the game, Wednesday, Sunday. You know, I saw you at Paperissima. There was one that asked you: "Excuse me, but something happened to you?". "
Who saved her?
"If you have a family and important relationships, and luckily I have them, are the only ones who can give you a hand."
He also went to a psychologist.
"True, and it is another thing I re-evaluated. Figures that I thought they were stolen, relative of course, money to the insecure. Instead they are people who serve, because if you find a good and capable, you'll find a figure with which you're not afraid to confront. Talk about everything, you go, without fear: and it is never easy. "
Ever thought of giving up the ball?
"You know what you think in those moments? "But because I am *** *** Gigi Buffon, the player known?" Because it ends up that, sometimes, you become a slave of your figure, than you are. If Buffon said: "I'm two months away, to treat me the depression is over. Then, whenever you're wrong, for example, a parade, there will be Always call this thing. So you can not afford to leave three months to heal. "

"Except that I ride with a 500, not mine, but the Juve. I mean not that I lacked nothing materially, but then you realize that in addition to property, there must be moral, emotional, religious. When you miss, you risk. "
A "black history" to be deleted?
"Introduction: all the mishaps I've had, looking with some awareness, if you will, I have always paid, I put in my face. But I would like to delete one, bought one of degree: it was an act of disloyalty towards the other and I are usually very loyal. Even against my parents, who are also professors who buys his son a diploma is not just the top. "
Something that is left out of the book?
"The mythical occupations at school. And when I see all this noise, I laugh, because I was a student and I remember how it was: 10% had an ideal, the others were the goats that followed the mass. I went to school just last year, including team and National, and I could not wait that anyone says "Boy, I strike." I was the first who told everyone exit. "
You put in ninety percent?
"Yes, but the others followed me willingly. The night I went to sleep at school, I entered with the Vespa, I work like crazy. So I say, just hear the guys, but let us not forget that many took advantage of even if, as I did. "
is accused something?
"Nothing, because I arrived early in this world, 17 years, and I think I had every right to grow wrong. Then clear that unlike another guy my stories ended up in the newspapers. If I say I'm satisfied, I would be stupid, but I do not feel guilty. A bit 'of my youth I wanted to live the way I like me.
