Model Bella Hadid has spoken candidly about her long struggle with anxiety and depression.
Through an emotional post on social media, Hadid addressed anyone facing similar challenges by sharing messages of support.
Specifically, in the post, he shared a series of motivational quotes, one of which stands out in particular because it reflects the internal struggle that many people are experiencing today.
"When the burdens get too heavy and the future looks bleak, it's okay to take a moment to rest - even if you feel like you've lost your spark. When you feel like you're out of your body and can't accept reality, there's no point in looking for beauty in everything. Sometimes, when everything gets scary, survival becomes a priority. We focus only on what we need to survive. Everything else falls into the background because the goal is just to feel safe," she began in the post.
The model emphasized that this feeling of being overwhelmed is why we are often unable to think clearly.
"In moments like these, thoughts run wild. Stop. Take a deep breath. You'll be fine. Don't think too much about the future, just focus on the present. Sometimes the 'what if' questions are very difficult. So remind yourself that the present moment is all you have. Be present and just breathe," he continued.
Along with the quotes, Bella spoke openly about her experience with mental health.
"I've carried the burden of anxiety and depression for years. Sometimes it gets so intense that it completely paralyzes me - even though no one on the outside can see it. I would start every day in tears."
She concluded her message with words of support for all those who are going through similar moments.
"To all of you who deal with the same feelings every day - you are not alone. And I love you so much," she said. /Telegraph/
