On her podcast 'MeSsy', Christina clarifies her previous comments about not enjoying living, emphasizing the importance of expressing mental health challenges openly.

AceShowbiz - Christina Applegate has clarified her recent remarks on her podcast "MeSsy", where she stated that she "doesn't enjoy living." The actress has been candid about her battle with multiple sclerosis (MS) since her diagnosis in 2021.

In a recent episode, Applegate explained that she was addressing "dark stuff" she was feeling at the time. She emphasized that sharing these thoughts is crucial to break the stigma surrounding mental health issues.

"By holding things in, we give them power," Applegate said. "It can cause disease in your body - cancer, all sorts of things. Loneliness. All of that, by holding it in because society has told us we're supposed to be just f**king fine. And I am not into that."

Applegate's comments have sparked a response from Jamie-Lynn Sigler, her co-host on "MeSsy", who also battles MS. Sigler applauded Applegate for being open about her "fleeting" thoughts, noting that it's acceptable to not be okay.

"What I hear from that is, 'I pray to not wake up like this,' you know?" Applegate said. "Of course you want to be there. We have children. We have family. We have loved ones. It's OK for us to say, 'I don't want to wake up like this. This does not serve me. And I want to wake up like how I used to.' "

Applegate and Sigler created "MeSsy" as a platform to share their experiences living with MS and provide a safe space for others facing similar challenges. They believe that by speaking out honestly, they can empower others to seek support and break the silence around mental health struggles.
