Nearly one year after giving birth to daughter Luna, Chrissy Teigen is opening up about her battle with postpartum depression. The model and Lip Sync Battle host, 31, describes her struggle as “painful” in the April issue of Glamour.
“My lower back throbbed; my shoulders — even my wrists — hurt. I didn’t have an appetite. I would go two days without a bite of food, and you know how big of a deal food is for me,” Teigen says. “I couldn’t figure out why I was so unhappy.”
Teigen eventually sought her doctor’s advice, and she was diagnosed with postpartum depression and anxiety. She is undergoing treatment and sharing her story to encourage other women to get help.
