The Just Beyond actress went on to say, “Social media only reflects what we want people to know-often we don’t see the ugly, hard, less-flattering sides of a person and their life. For me, it’s been easier to hide my struggles and insecurities and maybe write about them in songs, but that didn’t fix them.”
