5 Celebrities who battled mental health issues and came out stronger

We often forget that celebrities are human just like us. So, when they do open up about their mental health problems such as as anxiety and depression, they show us that it's okay to be vulnerable.


Madison Beer

The young singer recently opened up about her struggles where she suffered from depression. In a shocking reveal, Madison Beer shared that she used to self-harm. The self-harm started for the singer when her ex-boyfriend leaked her nude pictures and betrayed her trust. She was in a horrible state mentally due to that incident. But she is now not letting her ex-boyfriend get away with it this time. Madison is taking charge of her own life and choosing to be on a path of healing and self-love. That is certainly amazing to see.

Selena Gomez

The singer Selena Gomez made headlines this year for several reasons. One of which was her new album 'Rare' that both critics and fans loved. Another one was her telling the world that she is diagnosed with Bipolar disorder. In an interview with Miley Cyrus' show 'Brightminded', she told the fans the details about her mental condition. Though, now that she understood what she had, she was not scared of it anymore and tries to practice and preach self-love and acceptance.

Cara Delevingne

The model and actress Cara Delevigne is a proud member of the LGBTQ community. She's often opened up about major aspects of her life and career. She's also shared with her followers how she also suffers from depression. It started when she was a kid and she'd often compare herself to others and that led to a cycle of her thinking she was less than. But fortunately, as she grew older, she learned of ways to overcome her challenges.

Katy Perry

The new and proud mother Katy Perry has also been vocal about her mental health problems. She would often battle depression. The singer has also shared that three years ago, she would often fantasize about suicidal thoughts as well. However, Katy Perry worked her to rewire her brain and remove the negative thinking that led to her depressive episodes. Now, she's healthy, happy, and in a much better place.

Camila Cabello

The Senorita singer earned a lot of popularity for her amazing music. Her hit album 'Romance' and hit song 'Senorita' brought her much fame. But Camila Cabello has shared that she struggles with anxiety and OCD (obsessive compulsive disorder). The singer has shared that she did not let the mental conditions take control of her and instead she fought back and took charge of her own life. She tells her fans to never be afraid of what they want to become and that they can should never give up fighting.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
