It is not often when celebrities speak about their mental health struggles with their fans. In a new post about a newfound appreciation for log-crossing adventure activity, model Chrissy Teigen opened up about how it helped her realize something else about her own self.
Chrissy Teigen speaks about her fear of falling
In a lengthy caption alongside posts of herself at the site of the activity, Teigen detailed what her first encounter with log-crossing was like. She had first done it a few years ago, at the time when she was struggling mentally, possibly referring to her miscarriage in the year 2020.
“It was incredibly hard then. My feet felt like they were 1000 pounds each, my body tensed up to the point I felt like I was in a car crash after coming down,” described Teigen in the caption.
It took her 40 minutes to get through the obstacle, and it was not because of a fear of heights. “It’s fighting through the pain in my arms, my neck, my feet most of all,” she recalled.
So when she did the activity once again after years, she was sure that it would be different, perhaps even easier to get through. But that was not the case.
