1. She's got such an animated personality lol

2. I have depression and anxiety disorder. I have had the possibility since I was 9 years old. It got a diagnosis this year. I have had moments throughout it all.

3. Being a “ super star “ does not exempt you from mental illness.

4. I love her thank you M for sharing

5. You r lovely 😘😘😘

6. I love you Michelle Williams ❤ So proud of you. Depression is no laughing matter at ALL because my son is struggling with it right now. Thank you for fighting and sharing your feelings 💗 God's blessing to you my love💛

7. Yeah yeah yeah, A next Demi Lovato . Trying anything to gain attention.

8. Sometimes, what you think is the best advice is not always good advice. Only she knows why after all these years, why you are still dealing with depression, possibly single with no kids (if you want any). I don't know the pastor she dated personally, but I can tell you that he would have been the best person to help with your healing.

9. Im glad she got help and healing. Whoever going through depression please pray stay strong go get help and healing it is so important take care of yourself.God loves us. God we need your healing and peace and by God stripes we are healed.God bless everyone. In Jesus Christ name Amen. 🙏

10. love you michelle

11. I love michelle

12. Thank you for sharing!!!❤️🧸

13. She got a lot of flack from fans and trolls while in the group

14. When you are black and have depression you are told to pray it away bc only crazy ppl need therapy. You're made to feel ashamed

15. The music industry so mich pressure to be perfect

16. The Puerto Rican/Latin community are the same. We go to God. We talk to God, Pray & go to church. We don't do therapy. We ain't telling a stranger our business.

17. The interviewers “reporter” tone has no sympathy. “Were you REALLY at the point of having suicidal thoughts?!”

18. A millionaire thinks she will end up in a car store… what a slap in the face for people who actually work pay check to pay check. She has access to the best doctors worldwide, many can't afford the first appointment.

19. Working beside Beyonce is enough to cause depression.

20. Brave and beautiful soul. Keep speaking. ❤️

21. My daughter always have this detached look and I keep asking her if everything is okay and the answer is always yes, I provide love care and nurture her but shes always very distant

22. She's so brave. Love you Michelle!

23. 👏🏿👏🏿💔💔😔😔🎯🎯🌹🌹🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿

24. I miss destiny child sooooo much..!!!!

25. Girl I feel you 100% I struggle on and off all the time

26. Why does she always looks cheap

27. Depression is so Real!

28. I love Michelle!!! Great singer, excellent actress and she's beautiful. Glad she got the help she needed.

29. ❤️❤️❤️❤️

30. I've always liked Michelle because she seemed more personable or transparent about her mental health. She sounds more relatable

31. Thank you sister, God bless you ♡

32. Thank you for sharing Michelle.

33. Depression isn't that just a fancy word for feeling "bummed out"?

34. Proud of her for opening up! Depression is the worst

35. I appreciate this interview!!

36. Great interview.

37. ❤️❤️

38. Depression is so serious man ! Some stuff hits u all at once

39. glad she got it figured out.. there r days i just want to die. like literally, i didn’t have depression for many years til this year it went back. i have a house, full time job, but living by myself here in America has taken its toll.. i grew up in a dysfunctional household growing up and really do not have family anymore, i cant open up to any friends abt everything because i don’t really share dramas to anyone.

40. Michelle, stop sharing your private life with people you don’t know. It’ll help you.

41. Some like her in life who does battle with depression is genuine making a difference for me. Just crossing brief paths with someone who knows the inside of this curse in life called depression makes andifference

42. ❤️

43. I LOVE when celebrities are honest and pure because there are so many people that look up to them. It’s amazing to see that money can’t buy you happiness it truly comes from within and by opening up these celebrities help others do the same. It’s not like Demi Lovato who uses her celebrity status to gain more money and attention. I have no doubt she suffered but Michelle opens up and it’s raw not to get the money out of it but simply to help others! That’s what WE need honesty not money hungry celebrities!!!

44. She’s so gorgeous!!!!! 💕🙏

45. I knew something was wrong when I would look at her pictures she looked sad and I thought it was more of being a star and that pressure that comes with it. I would have never guessed she tried to end her own life.

46. Love you Michelle! Thanks for being open and helping to end stigma

47. I wonder what happened that she didn't marry the pastor. It would seem that he would be the perfect person to help in her healing process for her depression. When she performed with Destiny's Child in their videos, I always got the impression that she was trying to outperform the others. I'm glad that she is dealing with her depression today. I wish she and the pastor would have taken things further.
