Reality TV star Jamie Chung has revealed how she tackled her mental health issues prior to her journey in becoming a mother.
Reality TV Star Jamie Chung Admits She Went To Therapy To Cope With Motherhood
Jamie, for her part, is a mother to two children. While that has shown she is capable of dealing with anything that may come her way, from the outset she faced a very difficult challenge simply because she gave birth to twins.
Therefore, her state of mind had to be in the best possible condition to prepare her for this journey. In an interview with People magazine, Jamie admitted that she entered into therapy as a way to cope with becoming a mother. S
he said: “Therapy really helped me prep mentally for this lifestyle change and to not be afraid to talk about certain issues because it’s not the first thing you want to say when you have kids.”
This is especially true since she had been struggling to have children, as demonstrated by her fertility problems, which resulted in her freezing her eggs following medical advice.
And as a way to not get her hopes up in case anything happened with her pregnancy journey, Jamie did not speak about having kids until the very last minute.
Having said that, though, once their children arrived, Jamie did struggle with depression given the huge changes she was going to be going through. She added: “I do think that these postpartum depression issues are so real.
“I felt quite guilty feeling certain things that I felt. And just knowing that it’s normal and it’s just because you’re overwhelmed and you’re full of anxiety and it’s a scary transition for some people.”
But through it all, she managed to come out the other side as a result of the strong family support network she had around her.
Had it not been for her husband Bryan Greenberg, who has been by her side ever since they got married in 2015, there was a feeling that Jamie could have become overwhelmed by everything she was experiencing.
It is great to see Jamie in a much better place, and long may that continue in the future going forward. Let us know what you think in the comment section down below.
