Sophie Turner is part of the most famous TV show Ever - Game of thrones. Many girls would do anything to be where she is today.. but sadly, in our heads things are seen very differently.
"I was in a really special position and I count myself very lucky for that, but I don't think I viewed myself as worthy of anything that I was doing."
Sophie's depression began when she was 17, four years into her role on GOT. She thinks that social media played a big part of her poor mental health, because people made terrible comments about her weight and her skin at the time and her self-esteem as a teenager was lower than ever.
"I would just believe it. I would just say, 'Yeah, I am spotty. Yeah I am fat. I am a bad actress.' And I just believed it.".
"I've suffered with my depression for five or six years now. The biggest challenge for me is getting out of bed and getting out of the house. Learning to love yourself is the biggest challenge.
I
"I was withdrawn, I had no motivation to do anything or go out or, even with my best friends, I wouldn't want to see them, or go out and eat with them
"I just would cry and cry and cry over just getting changed and putting on clothes and be like, 'I can't do this. I can't go outside. I have nothing that I want to do'".
But Sophie took the matter in her own hands and asked for help. And step by step she's starting to feel better.
"I feel much better. I've been doing therapy, I'm on medication and I love myself now, or more than I used to, I think.
I'm learning what my hobbies are nowadays, cause that was something that i stripped away from myself for years cause i would just do nothing, and work..
People shouldn't be ashamed of it.. so many people are plagued with depression, anxiety, or body issues, and so if people just spoke about it, if people would just like opened up to their friends even, their family, it would be OK. Other people suffer with it too.. And all you do is you just have to speak to someone and you can get the help that you need, you can plague with therapy, or if it really comes down to it.. Medication.. You could change that, you could change that thing about yourself. People just need to know that it's OK to talk about it.
