Jada and Willow Smith admitted their issues
The wife of actor Will Smith, actress, activist Jade Pinkett Smith, in her podcast "Red Table Talk", spoke about the difficulties she has been facing.
As part of the Red Table Talk talk show, which features three generations of women - Jada Pinkett Smith, her mother Adrienne Banfield-Norris, and daughter Willow Smith, very important topics have been raised, one of which is anxiety.
The wife of actor Will Smith, actress, activist, and host Jade Pinkett Smith, in her podcast "Red Table Talk", spoke about the difficulties she has been facing for a long time. Namely, it is about anxiety attacks, and she realized that she had a problem at all only when she saw it all in the example of her daughter Willow.
“She bit her nails, but I never thought it was anxiety” - Jade's mother started the conversation, while her daughter Willow explained in detail why her mother did not notice that she was struggling with anxiety for a long time.
“She suppressed her problem for years, it was difficult for her. Growing up, she didn't realize I was struggling with anxiety. She watched her friends die, she went through a lot, so my problems didn't seem big to her” - said 21-year-old Willow, who had serious anxiety attacks.
“There were days when I screamed, cried, and lay on the floor” - the young musician is honest.
By the way, Kim Basinger was a guest in Jade's last podcast, who also admitted that she has a mental problem, that is, that she fights agoraphobia. It is a type of anxiety disorder due to which people avoid public places, but also places and situations that cause them to panic.
“I had to learn to drive again, for years I did not want to drive through tunnels in Malibu. It all made me nervous, and I had to work hard to figure out what to do” - she said.
“I didn't leave the house, I didn't go to dinner. It's really awful when a person who lived like me doesn't know what's going on. Everything went out in me” - Kim concluded.
