Angelina Jolie Childhood

Angelina Jolie has had a long and public struggle with her mental health. She has been open about her experiences with depression, anxiety, and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).
Jolie’s struggles with mental health began when she was a child. She witnessed her parents’ divorce when she was only 11 years old, and she was later sexually abused by a family friend. These experiences left her feeling isolated, ashamed, and afraid.
In her early twenties, Jolie began to self-harm as a way to cope with her pain. She also struggled with addiction and suicidal thoughts. She eventually sought professional help, and she began to make progress in her recovery.

Breast Cancer

The second major thing she undergo was preventive breast cancer surgery. In 2013, Angelina consulted Dr Kristi Funk, a top breast cancer surgeon in the United States. Strong evidence of a hereditary, genetic risk caused the actress to have both of her healthy breasts removed to attempt to prevent the same destiny, according to her doctor. Angelina Jolie’s mother had breast cancer and passed away from ovarian cancer, and her maternal grandmother also had ovarian cancer. Jolie received treatment from Funk at the Beverly Hills Pink Lotus Breast Centre in the month of Februray 2013.

In 2015, Jolie wrote an op-ed article in The New York Times, disclosing that she had her ovaries and fallopian tubes removed to reduce the risk of ovarian cancer. She made this decision after a blood test showed markers that could indicate the possibility of early-stage cancer.

In 2017, Jolie revealed that she had been diagnosed with Bell’s palsy, a condition that causes temporary facial paralysis. The condition is caused by damage to the facial nerve and can be triggered by a viral infection, stress, or other factors. Jolie said that she made a full recovery from Bell’s palsy with the help of acupuncture.

She is a role model for others who are struggling, and she shows that it is possible to live a full and happy life despite mental health challenges.
