Not shying away from sharing details of her difficult life experiences, Bella Hadid recently revealed in an interview with the Wall Street Journal how she would find herself in “debilitating mental and physical pain,” and that she would not know why.

In the hope of helping her fans and the wider public feel less alone when dealing with their own personal mental health problems, Bella took the decision to share details of her journey with anxiety and depression, which she has faced for many years.

Explaining that she would use Instagram to express herself and that “it was the easiest thing for me to do at the time because I was never able to explain how I was feeling,” the star admitted her days could go from good to bad. In opening up about her struggles, she revealed it would make her less anxious, and she had a lot of fans who also privately shared with her their experiences saying “I feel that way too,” she reflected.

“Walking outside, being able to remember there are so many people going through things and have similar patterns to me, it makes me feel better.”
