The legendary “disco queen” suffered depression and an abusive relationship in her 20’s.

In a 2003 interview with CNN, Summer “was asked about sticking her foot out of a hotel window to get a feel of whether to jump.”

“No, I wasn’t getting a feel,” she replied. “I was jumping over. I was attempting to go. I didn’t plan it. I just decided, I’m out of here.” Then the maids walked in and she stopped herself.

“Then I sought help. I got help. I realized that I had a serious problem with depression, and I went to a doctor and he gave me some medication,” Summer said.
