AceShowbiz - The price of fame could be too much to handle for some. It's no wonder when it comes to Hollywood, there are not just a few, but many stars tarnished their reputation with headlines about their antics or a brush with the law. In some cases like Britney Spears' and Amanda Bynes', the roots of their problems were their disturbed psychological well-beings.
A more recent example is Demi Lovato. Battling substance addictions, bulimia and bipolar disorder, the former Disney star shocked many when she entered rehab in 2010 at just 18. Still, after a successful six-year run on sobriety, she relapsed and even came close to going six-feet under due to drug overdose in July 2018. A source said that the "Sober" singer gave in to her old habits to quiet the noise of such high level of popularity. She has since been in rehab and has got candid on social media about her difficult journey ahead.
But unlike Demi and the above mentioned stars who fell from grace before they managed to seek help, a number of celebrities dealt with their inner demons before their illness got exposed and caused them bigger issues. In their cases, these celebrities chose their own sweet time to divulge the once-taboo issue that has caused them pain especially under the scrutiny of the ignorants.
Amid the rising awareness of mental health issues, let's take a look at these stars who have quietly battled depression, anxiety and other psychological illness while still maintaining their good images.
