The ex-girlfriend of Jim Carrey told her therapist she wanted to ‘have it all stop’ as she struggled to eat and sleep while dealing with constant vomiting that was caused by the anxiety she was experiencing from her relationship with the actor.
That admission was made on July 18, 2003 and included in medical records from White’s doctors that have been subpoenaed by lawyers for both Carrey and White’s mother Brigid Sweetman in her wrongful death lawsuit against the actor.
Session notes and text messages obtained by DailyMail.com that span from October 2012 to July 2013 reveal that Cathriona White had been seeing Carrey for just six months when he suddenly broke off the relationship, a move that came after White had been tested for STDs but before she had received her results.
The results came back positive soon after, and White told her therapist that she had contracted the STDs from Carrey, claiming that she questioned bumps on his genitals before her first outbreak but he dismissed them as irritation from shaving.
Text messages from White to Carrey show a similar exchange as well between the two at this time.
”These contemporaneous notes prove what we have said along and show what kind of person Carrey really is,’ Sweetman’s lawyer Michael Avennati told DailyMail.com in a statement.
‘His claims of innocence relating to Ms. White are bogus and shameful.’
A rep and lawyer for Carrey did not respond to requests for comment.
Case development: Notes from Cathriona’s White therapy sessions between October 2012 and July 2013 have been obtained by DailyMail.com
Allegations: The notes detail her relationship with Jim Carrey at that time, and include her claim that the actor had given her STDs after lying about a Herpes outbreak
White began seeing the therapist in October and claimed Carrey ‘issues’ that left him ‘down and dark’ during a November session.
During that same December 4 session she talked about being terrified when she watched Carrey pick up and smash a computer against his wall then voiced how upset it made her that Carrey would ‘send her home when he feels like it and not keep in touch with her until days later when he wants company.’
The therapist noted: ‘[White] has so little self-esteem. Very impressionable and little ego strength. Also very afraid of [Carrey] and his temper, yet she wants to rescue and help him.’
Just few months prior, White’s therapist noted that she seemed to ‘light up’ when she spoke of her new love interest.
Shortly after the new year, White told her therapist in a phone call that she had ‘tried to commit suicide with a bottle of painkillers that she got from JC’ after he broke things off two days prior on January 8.
White texted this admission to her therapist while on a bus to Utah to see her estranged husband Marc Burton according to the session notes, and at that time the therapist recommended that White see a psychiatrist for medication.
The two spoke again a week later, again by text, in a conversation initiate by White’s therapist.

White was ‘spending time with friends’ and admitted to being ‘fearful about the future’ according to the notes, which also say that she has promised to keep in touch on a daily basis.
She did not do this however and two days later cancelled her session on January 19, though she does speak with her therapist on January 21 after reuniting with Carrey.
The notes from that sessions describe White as being ‘incredibly distressed’ and ‘feeling like she wanted to hurt herself when JC kicked her out of his home in a drug-induced rage.’
White also spends a great deal of time alone while waiting for Carrey to be free according to the notes.
She is still ‘not doing well’ six days later according to the therapist, who notes that White is meeting immigration lawyers provided by Carrey and that the actor ‘is going to pay for an apartment for a year and some spending money’ for the woman.
On January 30, the therapist noted White was ‘noticing a breakout in her genitals.’
‘[White] claims she was tested before she slept with [Carrey] was free of any STDs,’ read the notes, which go on to detail how she ‘noticed bumps on [Carrey’s] penis but he told her it was from shaving.’
She is then described as ‘living in a constant state of fight or flight.’
On February 7, White is described as ‘very fragile and thin’ and ‘still devastated over the breakup.’
Four days later she is ‘very emotional’ according to the notes for her session, during which she tells her therapist Carrey ‘texted her few nights ago asking her to come over and “cuddle” then changed his mind.’
In the beginning: Carrey and White began dating around August or September of 2012 (pair above in September 2012)
Speaking up: White began seeing a therapist in October 2012 while dealing with the loss of her father according to session notes
Difficulkt time: White responds that she is ‘too numb to talk’ after a ‘horrible few days,’ and on February 27 she shared the news about her STD test with the therapist
On February 22 the therapist noted a text conversation she had with White when she checked in on her after the young woman missed her appointment two days prior.
White responds that she is ‘too numb to talk’ after a ‘horrible few days,’ and on February 27 she shared the news about her STD test with the therapist.
‘[White] cries that she now have contracted 3 STDs that [Carrey] gave her,’ read the sessions notes, which go on to say that Carrey said he wanted to ‘free’ after White confronted him with the results.
It is noted that White is ‘unable to calm down down during the session’ and ‘feels that she cannot tell anyone what has happened to her.’
White also described herself as ‘damaged goods’ to her therapist on that date.
She continued to see Carrey though the notes show, complaining on March 13 that she was feeling ‘used for sex’ because the actor treats her like a ‘dog’ and ‘kicks’ her out when they are down with the act.
White was also struggling with singing a confidentiality contract at this time, and the longer she took to sign the papers the more verbally abusive she claims Carrey is becoming with her, calling her ‘worthless,’ a ‘b****,’ and a piece of s***’ according to notes from March 27.
The therapist also wrote in her recap of that session that White was ‘manifesting early signs and symptoms of PTSD.’
A month later things do not seem to be much better, with the therapist writing that White ‘seems even more fragile’ in her April 24 notes.
‘We discuss her inability to feed herself and what to do to stop losing weight.’ read the session notes, adding that White ‘cannot keep food down.’
White revealed on that date that she had contracted an additional STD that was just revealed to her after further testing.
Meanwhile, the session notes also detail White’s growing fears about her ex.
White is ‘not able to hold food down’ and ‘still cannot sleep through the night’ state the May 8 session notes, which claim White ‘fears that [Carrey] will burst in her apartment and hurt her’ and is having bad nightmares that he is raging at her.’
Those concerns and dreams also come however at the a that White seemed to be struggling with a new prescription to Lexapro according to the therapist, who wrote that it was causing a ‘negative reaction.’
White’s STDs dominate the talk during her one session in June and three in July, with her final noted session occurring on July 23, five days after she said she wanted to ‘have it all stop’ to her therapist.
‘Met [White] near her home, as she does not have a car,’ read the therapist’s notes, which reveal that White ‘wants to terminate therapy for a while as she is feeling calmer and will be travelling’ but will stay in touch.
‘Still feels that no one will want her as she is damaged both psychologically and physically with all the STDs,’ wrote her therapist.
Wrongful death: The lawsuit against Carrey was filed by Sweetman and Marc Burton (left), the estranged husband of White (right)
Traumatic experience: White said that she tried to take her own life in January 2013 after she and Carrey broke up for the first time (session notes above)
Sweetman stated in her complaint the her daughter’s suicide came after years of ‘abuse’ at the hands of the actor, which included ‘Carrey giving Ms. White three STDs without warning her, lying to her about it, “dumping her out of concern fro saving his own carefully crafted public image, calling her a ‘Whore” and shaming her.
The complaint was filed a year after her daughter’s death and is set to go to trial next April, with White’s estranged husband Marc Burton also listed as a plaintiff in the case.
Carrey’s lawyer, Marty Singer, has called the lawsuit a shameless shakedown and says his client is blameless.
Singer filed legal documents back in December demanding that the court strike claims from Sweetman’s lawsuit, saying the allegations she included were made for the sole purpose of harassing, embarrassing and humiliating him in an effort to shame him into an unmerited settlement.
The actor said that the statements regarding claims that he gave White STDs without warning, called her a ‘whore’ and used ‘fixers’ to silence her are ‘irrelevant’ to the wrongful death case.
‘A part of their attempt to shakedown Carrey for a multi-million dollar payday, Sweetman and her attorney have riddled the Complaint with severe ad hominem attacks and allegations about STDs, none of which are relevant to the cause of death,’ court documents say. ‘Hence, none of these allegations belong in the Complaint.

Carrey has said in court documents that he and White were a loving couple and that he was ‘absolutely devastated’ by her suicide on the third anniversary of her father’s death.
Carrey specifically pointed to two of White’s suicide notes that she left him, saying that the letters show how much she loved him.
‘White left Carrey two suicide notes speaking lovingly to him, requesting his forgiveness for ending her own life, describing him, and him alone, as her “family”, and entrusting him to divide her property,’ said the December court documents.
DailyMail.com revealed last October that the STD test submitted as evidence in the wrongful death suit filed against Jim Carrey by Sweetman showed positive results for multiple diseases.
The Quest Diagnostics test belonging to ‘Jose Lopez’ and filed under seal has been seen by DailyMail.com and shows that ‘Lopez’ tested positive for Herpes I and II, Chalmidya and Hepatitis on January 28, 2013, with the results being reported three days later according to the test.
The date of birth for Lopez is listed as January 17, 1962, which is also Carrey’s date of birth.
Sweetman and her attorney claim in court papers that ‘Jose Lopez’ is Jim Carrey.
The results of the ‘Jose Lopez’ test were submitted as evidence in the case last year.
‘Jose Lopez’ was the alias Carrey used for his medical records until September 3, 2013, when it was changed to ‘Arthur King’, the court documents state.
Avenatti submitted a declaration in the case at that time stating: ‘After Carrey received the test results, he purposely hid the results from Ms. White, whom he was intimately involved with, and failed to inform her that he had tested positive for Hepatitis A, HSV (Herpes) I and II, and Chlamydia.
‘To make matters worse, Carrey then proceeded to have unprotected sex with Ms. White with full knowledge that he was STD positive, including on February 12, 2013 (two days before Valentine’s day and within weeks after learning the test results).
‘Even after doing so, he failed to inform Ms. White that he had likely just infected her with STDs and possibly hepatitis A. This was not only callous, it was criminal.’
Avenatti then went on to claim in his declaration that Carrey and White had ‘unprotected sex’ again on Valentine’s Day.
‘[I]nstead of giving Ms. White flowers and chocolates, Carrey should have given her his STD test results and that, and he should have refrained from sex with her – THAT is what she deserved on Valentine’s Day.’
Past loves: Carrey had long-term relationships with Renee Zellweger (left in 1999) and Jenny McCarthy (right in 2008)
Text messages between Carrey and White that were submitted in the initial complaint show the conversations between the couple about STDs.
White wrote to Carrey about finding ‘a couple of bumps’ in January 2013 and wanting to go get it ‘checked,’ with Carrey writing back a brief message saying that he hopes White will be ‘OK’ and to enjoy a shoot she is working on.
She later responded to a text sent from Carrey by writing: ‘I understand your [sic] worried. Imagine how I am feeling right now. I am the one who should be freaking out.’
She then stated that she is sure the bumps are ‘just the abrasion thing [Carey] was talking about.’
Carrey responded to this by writing: ‘I hope your [sic] ok hun. It could be from someone before me. Doesn’t show up until you’re really stressed.’
He then added that ‘it should be fine though.’
When White later told Carrey she tested negative for STDs before they began dating, he ‘inexplicably’ ended their relationship within hours according to the complaint.
