According to the National Institute of Mental Health of the United States, depression is one of the main causes of disability worldwide and many stars have also been victims of this disease. There are many examples, but we present to you 15 figures who found a way to handle it.
Any of us would think that being talented, having fame, great fortunes and incredible careers would make them immune to depression, but being constantly exposed, having such unusual hours or facing simple problems like unemployment, without a doubt, makes them more vulnerable to ending up in total depression.
1.Miley Cyrus
I went through a time where I was really depressed. I locked myself in my room and my dad had to break down my door. They know I’ve struggled with depression and it helped them get over theirs. That gives me a great purpose, a reason to wake up in the morning, that is bigger than putting on my feathers and little outfits.
2. Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson
I found that with depression, one of the most important things to realize is that you are not alone. You are not the first to go through this and you will not be the last to go through this.
3.Kristen Bell
I don’t wait for those things (depression) to find me. I have a pre-op checklist to combat them because I know they will come. The list includes talking to other people about my feelings, exercising a couple days a week, (also) going to my room for 10 minutes, just to regulate and reset.
4.Owen Wilson
I know everything has its ups and downs, but when you get on one of these waves (when you’re good), you have to ride it for as long as you can. (Today) I feel quite grateful. Well thankful is one of those words that gets thrown around all the time. Grateful, for, you know, things.
5.Demi Lovato
From a very young age I have dealt with suicidal thoughts and depression. I have been very eloquent in raising awareness about mental health because it is possible to see the light when you start working on yourself.
6.Sheryl Crow
In the worst case, there was a period of six months… when I couldn’t get dressed, days when I couldn’t leave the house. Antidepressants helped and so did therapy, but depression is something some people go through. It has always been part of my life.
7. Justin Bieber
Asking for help does not mean that you are weak, it just means that you care about yourself and those around you and that you want to be a healthy person. Many people struggle with depression and see it as a weakness.
8.Lady Gaga
I used to wake up in the morning and realize that I was Lady Gaga. And then she would make me depressed and sad and I didn’t want to be myself. I spent a lot of time in a kind of catatonic state of not wanting to do anything. And then finally, little by little I started making music and telling my story.
9.Katy Perry
I got depressed and didn’t want to get out of bed. In the past, I was able to get over it, but this time (in 2020) something happened that caused me to fall. I really had to go on a mental health journey.
10.Bella Hadid
I think I just needed to breathe, I was in a spiral. And speaking of which, I hope she can help people. I think she wouldn’t be being honest with herself if she didn’t talk about something like mental health.
11. Cara Delevingne
I didn’t understand what was happening, except for the fact that I didn’t want to go on living. I know it sounds stupid, but I thought that the love of others was what was going to make me happy when in reality what I had to do was love myself.
12.Bella Thorne
Who has not struggled against depression does not know what it is. Depression is not being sad sometimes and needing someone to pick you up. Depression is something that is deep inside and just stays there.
13. Jared Padalecki
There’s still a large part of the population that just wants to say, ‘Cheer up. Put on a happy face and everything disappears.’ For some people, that works… (but) for those of us who aren’t so blessed, the message is: ‘Always keep fighting.’
14.Jon Hamm
I battled chronic depression. He was messed up. He knew he had to go back to school and get back into some sort of structured environment and… carry on. Therapy… gives you another perspective when you are so lost in your own spiral. Yes help.
15. Selena Gomez
I’ve had a lot of problems with depression and anxiety and I don’t feel like I’m going to get over it. It is a battle that I will have to face for the rest of my life.
