Ronan Keating 'Suffering Panic Attacks'

Ronan Keating is so distraught following the death of Stephen Gately, that he's suffering from panic attacks.
The Boyzone singer lost his close friend and band mate last month, when Gately passed away suddenly of natural causes whilst on holiday in Majorca.
Revealing how devastated he still is, Ronan admits to the panic attacks, saying: "You can't breathe, you feel like your chest is collapsing, the walls are coming in on top of you.
"My brain doesn't work. My heart's broken. You just feel crushed. It's been horrible. We've all been feeling the same way since Stephen passed. Mentally I'm absolutely exhausted."
And losing his friend at such a young age (Stephen was only 33 when he passed), Keating says it has made him question his religious beliefs.
"I've had moments where I've questioned. I didn't understand. I don't understand. I'm angry. I'm upset. My friend's gone."
