I don't know, on the one hand it' s like I think it's good many celebs don't feel they need to hide their mental health issues, BUT:

on the other hand, I get sort of bugged when it seems almost trendy or as if it's the "it" thing for another celeb to come out saying they're battling depression or bipolar or anxiety/panic disorder, etc.?

I don't know, I just think, what the heck, you're rich you can afford the best pdoc, all the therapy you need, all your medication, any alternative treatment like massage, acupuncture, etc. WITHOUT having to worry about money, crappy insurance like the rest of us AND you have to come out in the media like "poor me, look what I have had to deal with!" as if they truly understand what the rest of us going through these issues have to deal with.

IDK, does this just make me downright insensitive?
