Hayden Panettiere Opens Up About Postpartum Battle

Hayden Panettiere recently sat down for an interview with Yahoo! Style, where she opened up about her battle with Postpartum Depression. The site quotes her as follows:

“I was always so terrified that people weren’t going to accept me. I finally just went, I’m tired of living afraid. I’m tired of living in fear of what people are going to think, so, you know, I’m just going to put it all out there on the table and I’m not going to worry about the judgment. The more open I was, the more acceptance I got from people. I got so much support and so much love. I was floored. I feel much more exposed, yes, but in a great way.”

On returning to her Nashville role, where her character Juliette Barnes is still in the midst of postpartum depression:
“It was strange having to throw myself back into that frame of mind. The way I do things is to pull from my own personal experience and sometimes even turn myself into what I’m portraying so that I can pull from my life and step into that person’s shoes by being able to relate.”
