London, Feb 27: Penelope Cruz says she is impossible to live with after she finishes making a film.

A website quoted her as saying: "With the movies that are more intense, sometimes you go through a little withdrawal. After 'Volver', I was a nightmare to be around, you could not talk to me. I felt homeless, so lost, so confused. After so many months working together it felt like a drug addiction."

She revealed she would never resort to drugs to make her feel better: "I think there have got to be other things. I have always known that that would just bring me into a deeper hole. So that was never a solution to me."
