Jim Carrey said on the CBS program "60 Minutes" that he is better able to deal with depression now that he lives a life free of Prozac and alcohol.

In an interview for Sunday's broadcast, Carrey said he took Prozac for a long time, but the drug didn't cure his depression.

"I had to get off at a certain point because I realized that . . . everything is just OK," he told reporter Steve Kroft at his home in Brentwood, Calif.
