“I know that I live a very fortunate lifestyle. I know that I might not have some of the daily struggles that some people might have. I have a really great family. I have a wonderful job. I'm stable financially. I'm very bless and fortunate.
It doesn't mean that I don't have crippling anxiety.”
-Kendall Jenner
Kendall Jenner is a model, public figure, entrepreneur, and reality TV star.
With almost 300 million followers on Instagram alone, Jenner often uses her platform to discuss her mental health challenges.
Kendall Jenner: "I, for example, really, really don't like public speaking. Like, it makes me really nervous and uncomfortable.”
”But then there's moments in my life, you know, as a public figure that I do have to kind of be in that position.
”It's just so many eyeballs looking at you at one time. I've messed up before, too. And you know, people still bring it up to this day.
“Like, it's just so embarrassing. You know what I mean? You're just like, oh my God, like, how can I have messed up that bad?
“It still is never gonna be, like, something that I'm super stoked on. It will always make me nervous.”
According to the WHO, “anxiety disorders are the world’s most common mental disorders, affecting 301 million people in 2019.”
By sharing her story, Kendall also shares that anxiety does not discriminate; anxiety can affect anyone, regardless of their background.
“There's been so many situations where I've had to kind of, like, face fears or face situations like that. And like honestly, like, own all that anxiety.
Like, you just have to do it to not only grow as a person but, like, become a better person and, you know, show that you care about a situation.”

There are many ways to overcome anxiety, such as mindfulness meditation, exercise, and working with a professional.
Hypnosis [is also] proven to help calm anxiety in cancer patients, burn patients, and those experiencing pre-test anxiety. One study found that hypnosis was more effective in treating anxiety than other methods alone. Hypnosis for anxiety can also yield positive results when treating state anxiety [like], surgery, medical procedures, exams...and anxiety-related disorders, including headaches and irritable bowel syndrome (IBS).
