Paramore’s Hayley Williams opens up on past mental health struggles: “It can seem pretty impossible to thrive, holistically, in the modern world”

Paramore's Hayley Williams has opened up her own past struggles with mental health in a new post for World Mental Health Day.

Williams wrote in her message: “In 2018, after years of struggling with my mind and some frustrating health issues, I finally got diagnosed with depression and a specific kind of PTSD. There are really good people doing incredible work to make a path to mental wellness more equitable and efficient and I’d live to highlight a few, so that if you feel drawn to any of them, you can reach out.” In 2018, the singer published a highly personal essay, where she spoke of her failed relationship with New Found Glory’s Chad Gilbert, the departure of Paramore bassist Jeremy Davis and more.
