No matter if you are rich or poor, everyone has problems in their lives.
We often think that celebrities live carefree lives without any problems or obstacles but this is not true as there are many famous stars who have gone through a tough phase in their lives. There are many big stars who have faced mental health issues and mental illnesses.
Here is the list of those celebrities who have battled mental health issues:
1. Kaitlyn Bristowe
Kaitlyn opened up about her “Off the Vine” podcast in November 2019. She revealed her dog helped her to combat anxiety. “[My anxiety] left me laying on the floor this one night in my house, not wanting to even talk to Jason until it passed,” she said, referencing her boyfriend Jason Tartick.
“I felt my anxiety coming on — immediately went looking for my dog, Ramen, who is really the only one that keeps me calm when I experience being close to a panic attack and when I feel that pain or heat in my chest.”
2. Justin Bieber
Justin had trust issues and he opened up about it during a joint Vogue interview in February 2019. He revealed that he that he “got really depressed on tour” in 2017, and was still working through his issues. Later that month, a source told Us Weekly Bieber was “going to several doctors” for his personal struggles, clarifying that the “Sorry” crooner was “not in rehab.
” The insider added: “He sees a therapist, but he’s not in a special center or anything. He doesn’t want to be dependent on medication. He struggles with ups and downs, anxiety, depression and uncertainty about the future.”
3. Maisie Williams
The Game of Thrones star has also gone through mental illness. She talked about it on the “Happy Place” podcast in May 2019. “Last year, in my own personal life, I think I just went through a lot of real revelations where I was like I’m not very happy doing this and pretending everything was fine,” she explained.
“And so, that wasn’t a public thing, but after going through that, now I’ve sort of tried to be a lot more genuine and it just becomes a lot more relaxing after that, I think. You just drop it all and that’s when you can really have fun.
”
”I still lay in bed at like eleven o’clock at night telling myself all the things I hate about myself. There’s still a journey, I think. But at least dropping the act and just being who you truly are, I think that’s definitely a first step; not trying to be who you want me to be right now in this moment.”
4. Sophie Turner
Another The Game of Thrones star talked about her mental health struggle in an interview with Rolling Stone in March 2019. “Depression for sure, anxiety, all of those things,” she explained of what she suffers from. “I still experience it, but I had therapy, I’m on medication, and I feel so much better. The fact that I spoke to someone changed my life.”
5. Kanye West
Kanye was diagnosed with a mental condition at the age of 39. “I think everybody got something,” he told Big Boy TV in June 2018. “But like I said on the album, it’s not a disability. It’s a superpower.”
6. Demi Lovato
Demi was admitted into rehab in 2010 for “emotional and physical issues” including bulimia, cutting, and bipolar disorder. “I had no idea that I was even bipolar until I went into treatment,” she revealed in 2011. “I was conquering the world, but then I would come crashing down, and I would be more depressed than ever.”
7. Jim Carrey
Jim battled with depression and he took Prozac “for a long time.” In 2009, he told CBS, “It may have helped me out of a jam for a little bit, but people stay on it forever. I had to get off at a certain point because I realized that, you know, everything’s just okay. There are peaks, there are valleys. But they’re all kind of carved and smoothed out, and it feels like a low level of despair you live in.”
8. Sarah Hyland
Sarah revealed that she had suicidal thoughts in after undergoing two kidney transplants amid her battle with kidney dysplasia. “I would write letters in my head to loved ones of why I did it and my reasoning behind it, how it was nobody’s fault. I didn’t want to write it down on paper because I didn’t want anybody to find it. That’s how serious I was,” Hyland told Ellen DeGeneres in January 2019 about contemplating suicide. “I was very, very, very close.”
This is just a small list of stars who have battled mental illness but there are many other celebs who faced the same situation. We should not be harsh on anyone as we don’t know what someone is going through in life.
