Kim Basinger and Ireland Baldwin have opened up about their struggles with anxiety.
Kim Basinger And Ireland Baldwin Reveal All On Their Anxiety Struggles-‘I Wouldn’t Leave The House’
The mother and daughter have a well-documented history when it comes to dealing with such issues. Kim, for her part, has struggled with agoraphobia. The former is a condition that makes people feel very anxious and nervous when it comes to going into certain situations in public.
Therefore, as a way to stop the anxiety from getting out of control, people tend to avoid going out. And that is something that began to impact Kim’s life in a negative way. In an episode of “Red Table Talk,” Kim said: “I wouldn’t leave the house. I would no longer go to dinner.
“I could not even have people for dinner. We tried that. It’s like something just completely shuts down within you.” Much in the same way, Kim’s daughter Ireland has had her own share of problems too.
Ireland expanded on how her problems initially began when her mother and father Alec Baldwin were going through a divorce. And this began to spiral out of control when she began to suffer from alcoholism, an eating disorder, as well as substance abuse.
So as time went by, Ireland understood just how much she was struggling during one particular night. In her comments, she remarked: “I had a night where I went way too far with drinking and taking pills cause I couldn’t even go to bed at night. I was so afraid of this relationship.”
The fans on social media were very sympathetic. People understood the struggles that the pair had gone through, especially since they were able to draw on their own experiences. One person wrote: “I understand this !
“I went through an abusive relationship & suffered the same symptoms! Kudos…for sharing this information!!!!” The duo certainly had a lot of courage in opening up about their experiences, and hopefully going forward, they can continue to stay in a positive mindset. So there you have it folks.
