Unfortunately, mental illness is an extremely common thing that affects so many people in different ways. For some, it can be debilitating, and for others, it can be a constant, incessant, underlying nuisance.

The silver lining is that we live in a time when people can, and are encouraged to speak out about their struggles, to help others going through something similar. These celebs have taken full advantage of that, and we love them for it.

“People use ‘panic attack’ very casually out here in Los Angeles,” Sarah told Glamour , adding: “But I don’t think most of them really know what it is. Every breath is laboured. You are dying. You are going to die. It’s terrifying. And then when the attack is over, the depression is still there.”

Kristen revealed that between the ages of 15-20, is when she struggled the most with mental health issues.
