US Representative Barney Frank acknowledged yesterday that for a brief time in 1989 he saw a psychiatrist and took antidepressant medication as he battled allegations from a gay prostitute and companion who had operated a sex-for-hire ring in the congressman's home.
''I was pretty dysfunctional for five or six weeks," Frank said in a brief interview, referring to the scandal that drew national attention and opened up his private sexual life to public scrutiny.
The 64-year-old congressman said he was still able to ''show up and vote" in the House during the period. He said he thought about stepping down from his congressional seat, but rejected the notion because he wanted to use the House Ethics Committee as a public forum to fight the allegations.
Frank has said that in the past that he fell into despair as the public scandal erupted in August 1989 and developed into a national scandal. Friends and colleagues also said at the time that they were worried about his mental and physical health. Frank said he lost significant weight.
