WELL, seem to live normal lives with their day to day personalities, aren’t most actors & many people just full of other characters hair width away just waiting for turn at life..in other words, tend be little “schizo”..one famous actress may have 20 or more residents within..!

Celebrities tend to make things worse because it makes vulnerable young people believe the challenges are easy to overcome because so and so is talking about it, in my opinion.

When has a celebrity ever kept their 'health struggles' PRIVATE?

Mental health should be studied and something done as it affects ?

Hmm then you think these “celebrities” who mostly live in Cali would do something to help the homeless who are mostly mentally ill ie San Francisco. But no. They only want sympathy for THEIR issues. BS.

Yet it will still wreck you professionally.

Alopecia has nothing to do with mental health. Why show her pic?

This article derailed 🤦🏽‍♀️

Schizophrenia alone is 1% of total population. Many other forms of mental illnesses prevalent in society behind doors.

Nah. I just think everyone is trying to get attention. EVERYBODY on facebook/Twitter/Reddit is 'depressed', ASD, or whatever now because being a victim gets attention and likes.

Celebrities prove mental illness by voting democrat.

She is not a celebrity. She is a congresswoman. Really sad.

Because the field is based solely on one book written by politically influenced psychologists with little regard for statistical data...

GOD LOVES THESE 2 WORDS VERY MUCH

deciding politicians are celebrities?

When did 'celebrities' ever keep their health struggles private?

What 'stigma?'

They all suffer from Trump Derangement Syndrome TDS, it's incurable my friend.

We all have health struggles. The only difference is celebrities can afford medical care n well the poor, were screwed.

BFD

I give AyannaPressley credit for speaking out the other day on alopecia. Live in her district & disagree with her politics quite often, but it was a good thing to speak out & she handled it with class. 👍

really ... no one cares.. should of thought about those tight braids and well karma.. your squad is what

You with health struggles are so powerful and brave. I am not a celeb, I do not have health struggles. I am just a regular black female senior baby boomer with every day personal secrets that I don't talk about. How brave and strong you are. THANK YOU.

Democrats are 'celebs' to the Fake News Media. Explains a lot.

fuckem they can afford it

Fuck celebs! They’re not special. Don’t want to hear the “poor me” bullshit when they have plenty of money to get help while us peasants struggle just to get an appointment.

Celebs? That’s a picture of a deplorable congresswomen. Hardly a celebrity.

Prayers for everyone we all have issues...don't be ashamed ...come allow the elders to pray amen
