Lady Gaga isn’t the only one who’s been refreshingly open discussing mental illness. Here are other celebrities speaking out in a bid to smash the stigma…
Lili Reinhart, aka Betty from Riverdale, has just spoken out about her struggle with depression in a series of tweets, for Mental Health Awareness Month.
The 20-year-old actress has revealed that getting cast in the show a year ago “saved” her during her worst bout of depression.
“Riverdale came into my life when I was going through the worst depression I had ever experienced. And in the end it completely saved me,” she wrote. “Since it’s mental health awareness month, I figured it would be good to share that. I worked my ass off to make a living out of what I love. And when I’m feeling depressed or sad, I remind myself how far I’ve come. And how I didn’t let my depression consume me… To anyone out there who feels depressed or hopeless… do not fucking give up on yourself. You’re all you’ve got. And you deserve the world.Yourmental health should be your priority. Don’t forget that. This is your life.. and you’ve only got one. So don’t waste it by being sad.” more
