Bella Hadid is discussing her mental health struggles in a candid interview. “Whether it was eating disorders or smoking a pack of Marlboros since the age of 14, I’m like, “Oh, this is what all of the kids are doing”.
The 25-year-old model, who confesses to having chronic anxiety during her teenage years, says that she indulged in harmful habits in order to calm her mind.
She told i-D magazine: “Growing up, I thought it was normal that I had this chronic anxiety and this disassociation, crying every day and not knowing who I was.”
“I realised that maybe that was me trying to figure out why I felt that way. And in reality, all I needed was therapy,” added Hadid.
