Hadid, who is the daughter of property developer Mohamed Hadid and The Real Housewives of Beverly HillsYolanda Hadid recently open to Fashion about what led her to seek help for her mental health issues at a treatment program in Tennessee in early 2021.
“My immediate response to trauma is to please people,” he told the magazine. “I literally get sick to my stomach if I’m leaving somewhere and someone isn’t happy with me, so I always do my best, but the problem is I come home and I don’t have enough for myself. I became manic. I bleached my hair. He looked like a troll doll. Then I tinted it, it looked like a sunrise. That should have been the first sign.”
Since attending the treatment program, Hadid said that now uses medication and talk therapy to manage her depression and other struggles.
“For so long, I didn’t know why I was crying,” added Hadid, who also suffers from chronic Lyme disease. “I always felt very lucky, and that would make me even more depressed. There were people online saying: You live this amazing life. So how can I complain? I always felt that I had no right to complain, which meant that I had no right to help, which was my first problem.
At the beginning of this year, Hadid also spoke with WSJ Magazine about how she would send photos of her crying to his mother or doctor to explain how he felt when he could not name his emotions.
“It was the easiest thing for me at the time because I could never explain how I felt,” she said. “I would just be in excruciating and debilitating mental and physical pain, and I didn’t know why.”
