Ant-Man and the Wasp actress Evangeline Lilly has opened up about her personal struggles. The 40-year-old recently shared two pictures of herself taken by her four-year-old son when she was in a ‘dark place’ a year ago, according to the reports.
“I had such a rough year last year but I didn’t want to share all of it with you because I didn’t want to be a dark cloud in your world,” she wrote on Instagram.
“But I struggle deeply with feeling that all I ever am is what I feel everyone else wants and needs me to be. I often feel alone and unseen,” she added. Lilly said she unsuccessfully attempted to internalize all her ‘pain’ because she believed she was strong enough to handle it. “Publicly, I hid and made light of my deepest traumas and laughed in the face of my most profound pain,” she wrote.
