Celebrities are like us and undergo the same struggles many of  us go through. They understand how life can be a hard place to navigate, and even when you have everything, you can feel like you have nothing.  These celebrities have spoken out about struggling with their own feelings of depression, self worth, anxiety, and more.   They are taking a stand when it comes to mental health and working hard to make it more human.

“The advice I’d give to somebody that’s silently struggling is, you don’t have to live that way. You don’t have to struggle in silence. You can be un-silent. You can live well with a mental health condition, as long as you open up to somebody about it, because it’s really important you share your experience with people so that you can get the help that you need.” — Demi Lovato

“Just remember, you are not alone, in fact, you are in a very commonplace with millions of others. We need to help each other and keep striving to reach our goals.” — Mike Moreno

“The experience I have had is that once you start talking about [experiencing a mental health struggle], you realize that actually you’re part of quite a big club.” — Prince Harry

“Anything that’s human is mentionable, and anything that is mentionable can be more manageable. When we can talk about our feelings, they become less overwhelming, less upsetting, and less scary.” — Fred Rogers

“There is hope, even when your brain tells you there isn’t.” ― John Green

“The humanity we all share is more important than the mental illnesses we may not” ― Elyn R. Saks
