I wasn’t going to share this, as I’ve denied being on antidepressants in past interviews. I saw it as a weakness, which in hindsight it was the opposite I struggled with accepting help and asking for it because I didn’t know why I felt depressed and anxious. @remibutlerwray @cocowillow @beautybymeganguy @joel_maghair21 @marv19922 @x.fionabreens.x @laurenlofthouse1 @alex___evans @dangwray & my family 💕 Thank you for always talking sense and being there during my the darkest times. Even tho I never take your advice at first or ignore your whatapps for day’s because I couldn’t deal with getting out of bed! Your support and love over the last couple of months has been unreal. I’m so proud to finally say I’m off antidepressants after 4 YEARS and I wouldn’t have been able to do it with out you all. I’m not saying it’s a good thing to come off them, everyone is on their own journey! (don’t just stop without contacting your doctor) but after relying on them for so long I was petrified of ever missing one! I would get the shakes and panic if I forgot one. (Sorry to all the MUAs trying to apply eye makeup when I’m shaking with anxiety!) Even during loveisland I would take them sheepishly hoping no one would clock and ask what they were! I feel so free and like the dark cloud has finally gone, I was so used to them I forgot what life before them in a good headspace actually felt like! ☀️🌝 Sometimes in life we need to hit a real low to want to change. 💕
