Bella Hadid suffers from anxiety and depression: “Sometimes all you need is to know that you are not alone”

On the one hand there are red carpets, photo shoots and catwalks, on the other hand real life, which sometimes veils itself with restlessness, keeps you awake at night and forces you to come to terms with yourself: Bella Hadid, in tears on Instagram, he bluntly told his followers that social media are not real, revealing a part of his completely unknown daily life.

“This is me pretty much every day, every night, for a few years now. Sometimes all you have to feel is that you are not alone, ”wrote the 25-year-old model,“ So, from me to you, you are not alone. I love you, I see you and I listen to you ». The “the” has come from some Stories by Willow Smith, from which Bella took the courage to get naked.

“People forget that everyone feels basically the same: lost, confused, not quite sure why we’re here. Everyone feels that anxiety, and they try to cover it up in some way, ”wrote the model.

Bella thus told fans that she suffers from anxiety and depression, underlining how mental problems and the chemical imbalance that causes them have nothing linear: she compared them to a roller coaster, with its ups and downs. “There is always light at the end of the tunnel and the roller coaster at some point always stops completely”, continued the model, as long as you stop to understand. “If you work hard enough on yourself, spending time alone to understand your traumas, triggers, joys and routines, you will always be able to understand or learn more about your pain and how to manage it, which is all you can ask yourself. “

It is not the first time that Bella Hadid has spoken openly about her health difficulties, although, until now, she has never done so openly. Last January, for example, she said her anxiety and depression problems started when she was just a teenager and on that same occasion she decided to take a break from social media to take care of her mental health full-time. “Take the time to ask for help, it’s worth it to reach your full potential”, he had always written via Instagram.

Strong statements, and more important than ever in a society where certain problems are (wrongly) still perceived by many as a stigma.
