NEWS… BUT NOT AS YOU KNOW IT
Freida Pinto has opened up on her experience with postpartum depression, 13 months on from welcoming her baby son.
The Slumdog Millionaire actress has dismissed the idea of bouncing back because ‘you’re changed forever’ as she spoke up about the anxiety she dealt with that left her unable to even go outside.
‘I think it’s almost easier to talk about the physical level, but on a mental level and an emotional level, you can’t necessarily always explain anxiety and depression in words like “I feel pain in my knee, or in my lower back,” so it starts making that illness invisible, and because it’s invisible, it starts getting ignored,’ she said in a new interview.
The 38-year-old revealed that she began to suffer four months after the birth of her son with husband Cory Tran.
