Kristen Bell Talks Work, Motherhood, and Battling Anxiety

[@usadrones]

Kristen's transparency is extremely admiral. Class act

[@mscourt]

I really appreciate her talking about taking medication for her depression and anxiety.

[@Dani-ul1fq]

xteana It's a real thing people deal with, if you have anxiety you would know what that's not something you'd use as an excuse. Saying anxiety and depression is an excuse is like saying being Bipolar is an excuse or having any mental illness.

[@Dani-ul1fq]

xteana Yes everyone experiences anxiety and that's normal, but there are proven Anxiety Disorders which are a serious mental illness. It has been proven, all you have to do is educate yourself on it. An Anxiety Disorder can be as serious as depression and not all Anxiety Disorders are the same just like not all depression levels are the same.

[@Dani-ul1fq]

xteana An Anxiety Disorder is a real illness and maybe if you tried to educate yourself on the difference between normal anxiety and an Anxiety Disorder, you would know that.

+Dani B I was diagnosed with Anxiety and panic attack disorder. I never took any kind of medications instead I changed my life. Removed toxic people, get divorced, changed my job my nutrition added supplements and use herbs for anxiety. Didn't have panic attacks more than I year and my anxiety is under the control. Valerian and Rescue remedy are the best alternative solutions for panic attacks and anxiety! But most of all remove everything that you believe it's toxic for you and your environment. Don't be afraid to make changes and don't be afraid to start from zero.

[@HewanYitagesu]

I love Kristen Bell with my entire existence!

[@happycamper6888]

What a lie. No bigger lie has ever been told.

[@roblewis188]

one of their best interviews, loved.

[@aci12345678]

Robert Lewis Mine too, Kristen Bell was enthusiastic

[@estellaf4072]

Her honesty is so refreshing and authentic. By far one of their best interviews.

[@danielrivera4651]

"Life is a joke if we're all pretending it's perfect, I mean, get real" -Kristen Bell (2017)

[@kaylabey]

I'm so happy she talked so openly talked about anxiety!

[@ellajackson4272]

She's gorgeous and has a great personality!

[@jalissaoneal5808]

No one can convince me otherwise!! This woman is perfection!!

[@stephaniei.3424]

how did they get such a huge guest??? happy for them!!!!

[@stephaniei.3424]

tbh this is the first person i personally consider A list and i do hope for bigger things for them

[@Caroljq410]

Stefany Brown she's not that big.

[@glowupjess]

xo lw she is

[@bakarikentrell527]

Nicki Minaj has been on the show, she is A List. So is Patti Labelle, Tyler Perry, Monique, etc...

[@doctorbellacullen]

Her show isn't doing very well she's everywhere promoting it at the moment.

[@Press_Play.]

I'm a simple woman. I see Kristen Bell, I click :)

[@jenrella235]

Same girl

[@Caroljq410]

Tamera looks stunning!!! Her natural hair is beautiful

[@chrissynova77]

I fell in love with Kristen Bell when she was Veronica Mars!!! I'm so happy for her success.

[@msCHIevous94]

Can we do more mental health segments plz!! Its a need for our country- for the world.! Lets destigmatize it!

[@lilyludwig4323]

msCHIevous94 Amen

[@manoue012]

She's such a pretty woman! Discussing kids and family, I'm sure Tamera was in element lol❤️

[@kamissadiarra5074]

NS012 right

[@istillluvchrisbrown]

NS012 I know, that's Tamera's new friend now, or at least she hopes 😂

[@shangoody1850]

Wow She hides it pretty well. Big fan of her work!!!

[@lexi219]

I don't think she's hiding anything. There are varying degrees of severity of clinical depression and anxiety, and if she is managing it - seeing a doctor, staying vigilant with medication, staying active, etc. - she likely has much fewer bad days that correspond with days she has to be on camera/the general public is looking at her. I struggled with depression on and off for years, which I never actively hid at all, but I still have people in my life that don't know just because they weren't around during the rough patches.

[@veelo85]

EVERYONE gets depressed and anxious. Yes, but that is far from the same thing as having clinical depression and anxiety. Why don't people understand that.

[@sophiademure]

Vee Lopez You'd be surprised how the differences in the level of severity are down to individual differences, external factors and how different people cope. The DSM V is not reliable enough to be valid unfortunately.

[@MissShootingStar5]

Well, people often say "I'm feeling depressed today". They say it instead of saying "I'm feeling sad today". Depression is not a fleeting emotion. It's an ongoing struggle, or at least it doesn't just last a day or two.

[@msCHIevous94]

She says that bc its true everyone has their times... but she also says hers is seeious bc ahe takes meds... shes saying it bc its not an UNNORMAL THING to experience. However there are deeper cases... why have an attitude and just be HAPPY that ahes making this an awareness... u know she couldnt have talked about it at all-_-

[@usadrones]

ayayaya lo exactly. Everyone doesn't experience depression. This confusion is bc people use the incorrect words to describe how they're feeling. using the word depressed instead of sad has become so normalized.

[@myparisiandresser7611]

i totally agree. in french we have 2 different words. one for clinical depression and another for feeling sad. Clinical depression and anxiety are serious problems and it's also important to realize that it's not just because you're not strong enough.

[@Scofields1828]

I LOVE Kristen Bell, everything she's saying about depression and anxiety was too real and I loved when she made the joke about not showing her kids

[@savannahvick5266]

I love Kristen. She’s so real and open. She will talk about anything and everything and she’s never fake and never tries to be something she’s not. She’s an incredibly cool woman who I 100% inspire to be!

[@Lionloverky]

savannah vick i think you might mean aspire

[@whita.9860]

I LOVE Kristen Bell.This was a really good interview, so refreshing and free flowing. Great Job ladies!!!!

[@ternitamas]

"Life is a joke if we're all pretending it's perfect" I absolutely love that, what an awesome girl, so real and down to earth, I love her

[@Jess140594]

Man, I never realised how stunning Kristen is before! What a beautiful intelligent woman.

[@naiiiim]

Big fan of Kristen, would've never guessed she dealt or still deals with those kinda issues. Shows you that no matter how much of a front people can put on, everybody has their own demons. It's good that we are being more open to talk about those stuff now, cuz we can relate if we're going through the same thing.

[@LaDimplez91]

She's awesome. Currently battling with this myself and it's true.. you gotta be real and check in with yourself and never stop taking care of your mental state.

[@gzh619]

She is my favorite actress and I'm going back to Veronica Mars. Im so happy she has a good balance in her life. I hope she keeps growing and hope never to see her in any Hollywood drama.

[@channelskinner3304]

I've had generalized anxiety disorder, bipolar 2, and post traumatic stress disorder my whole life. I wasn't fully diagnosed until my mid 20's after suicidal ideations. My discription of clinical depression in case people don't fully understand the difference between being depressed ( or very sad) and clinical depression. Ex: imagine the worst day you ever had in your life feeling of crying, shaking, worthless not knowing how to live with the pain of life. But relive that day over and over for not just days but weeks and in my case at times months. That's clinical depression it's a ongoing pain that you have to live with by meds, therapy etc. Don't get me wrong anyone depressed Even not clinically is hurting and deserves the same understanding and love. Clinical depression is just a whole other beast to combat

[@eannelisarheuben]

I adore Kristen Bell. She is hilarious and seems so down to Earth considering she's worked in Hollywood most of her life. Hugs.

[@Donia-r5m]

As an English learner I really love the way she speaks, her accent n her tone. She speaks clearly !😮

[@maymintah]

Tamera was like "my kids would never swear . They're good kids 🙂" 😂😂

[@vsboardza]

When?

[@Vanessa-is3gu]

In her head lollll

[@NolithaMfihlo]

When? Because Tam just said in another episode Aden was swearing..stop making it seem she judges people ... In this episode her kids were still very young to articulate

[@VONiiE8]

One of the best, if not the best, interviews they've had.

[@pinklypinkly2220]

She is the best guest a show host can have. She make it easy.

[@Braselton21]

1:03 "I Haven't even looked her directly in the eyes, I don't know what she looks like" :D

[@vik_khy]

Always thankful for your kind words ...❤

[@aleciadavis3401]

Lani looks absolutely stunning! Can't take my eyes off her! She's glowing

[@1Diostabon]

This is why I love this show!

[@deidrab4421]

Tamera is thinking ..thank goodness someone else besides me is talking about their kids lol

[@lexi219]

I mean, to be fair, they kept asking her questions about her kids. It wasn't like she made every single conversation veer back to it like Tamera does lmao

[@mundaneamazing]

I weirdly do think it's super important to see people who have 'dream jobs' and are traditionally attractive talk about their struggles because then I feel like I'm not pathetic for having the struggles that I do.

[@summerxo3203]

Dang The Real upped their game getting A list celebs Kristen Bell and Mel B

[@kls06e]

It's so important to share life journeys and struggles because you never know who you can touch to increase the value of one's being....positively pass along!

[@janelillyhammer3782]

wow a- lister guest! and a great one

[@s.t.3346]

Yay I love Kristen Bell and you lovely ladies on the Real!😍😊❤

[@caelonnie9264]

Anxiety is REAL! But over looked

[@PLazz257]

Its really inspiring to know a celebrity could suffer from anxiety. Since they are always in the public's eye, you would expect them to get used to the fame.

[@Ms.JanMarie]

Raise your hand if you're watching this in 2019 while being depressed? ✋

[@marionlapierre6088]

2020 !!!

[@alicia8643]

Your physical circumstances can be perfect. Perfect spouse, perfect behaved kids, perfect house, perfect job. You could see no reason be be sad or complain but depression and anxiety doesn’t care. ANYONE can feel those feelings. Whether you are a millionaire or scrambling to make it… YOUR FEELINGS ARE VALID. you don’t have to tell yourself “well my friend has cancer or my cousin lost her husband so what the hell am I depressed and anxious for?” No. Feelings are relative. Don’t compare feelings and circumstances with others. Feel what you need to feel. Reach out when you need to. ITS OK. You’ll be okay 🤎

[@yessyrivers5694]

Kristen Bell, girl I felt like you was talking about me.. I deal with Anxiety and depression it’s the worse but I have to work through it.. I have done the medication thing and it made things 20 times worse for me. i was tried more and I was depressed a lot more than I was without medication.. I have three children that rely on me and need me.. I couldn’t move I just was so tired, didn’t wanna be around anybody I just want to sleep... Now I just push myself and I do everything I can to take care of myself because my children need me the most then anybody else.

[@sanashah2967]

Love Kristen Bell ❤️

[@embracethepuzzle6492]

Honestly, Tamera thinks because she has two children, she knows exactly how every other mother feels and has the answer to it all. Not just this episode but any kid related topic.

[@-.a9942]

Synthia Ross she thinks she has done something amazing just by being a mom. Like no other woman has given birth before

[@Deengems]

I thoroughly enjoyed this. very relatable and witty

[@halleforee1161]

I know this video wasn't focused on Adrienne at all, but her tan is so pretty! She looks great, and her dark hair compliments it so well 😭❤

[@idelizclarke9050]

yes....someone who admits to cussing in front of their kids. you always get these ppl who try to act politically correct when it comes to their kids and I wonder what it's really like behind close doors. I mean I do know those ppl who truly don't, but we're not all like that. ijs.

[@bonniebaybee]

Love Kristen Bell! her & her family are so beautiful, fun, loving! #goals lol along w/ Mila & Kutcher

[@anthoneyferrell3756]

They need to get JOJO on to perform!!!!

[@anthoneyferrell3756]

DUDE CHECK HER OUT! HER NEW CD IS MAD LOVE. BILLBOARD PLACED IT IN THE TOP 20 ALBUMS OF 2016

[@teaandtv]

Loved Kirsten bell since day one!! So excited you had her on the show! Amazing I love her

[@morganevans6185]

My husband and I do the same thing with our kids in regards to swearing. We don't put the power to the words and it's not this big taboo so the kids have never really repeated it.

[@celines9342]

Shes almost 40 and so pretty, im 22 and wish i looked like her lol

[@RShongg]

Adrienne's hair

[@timaa2123]

It's so cute how Kristen has picked up the 'yeah yeah yeah' thing from Dax lol

[@dopkasa.1171]

I have loved Kristen Bell as an actress for yeeeeeears. Viva Veeonica Mars. Forever a MARShmallow. Thanks for having her on the show:)

[@zt5054]

1:33 she saiid ‘mum’!! So sweet

[@marooishere2801]

she's a keeper!!!!!

[@skinsciencebymira]

Yes, I’m the same with swearing with my kid! He’s going to hear them eventually no matter what. You can’t hide your kids from the world. I would rather just frame them as “adult words” and when he’s a grown up he can make the choice to use them or not. So far it’s worked great, he never says them.

[@simonsays9912]

Love Kristen Bell! What a wonderful guest!!

[@Mel__21]

omg Mel B and that hair 😍

[@galvanguipzot7035]

I think its great Kristen is very comfortable talking about her depression and anxiety and keeping her self healthy...but i just want to say that my mother had depression and when the doctor told her to take medication she did it until someone her crazy and that she needed to take her pill from then on she said that i don't need a pill to boost me up I'm not crazy and i will be just fine with out them. From then on my mother hasn't used medication and living life to the fullest because she set her mind to thinking positive of her self. So Kristen i think u are just doing just fine and as long u keep thinking positive you'll get through it

[@elizabethforrest8364]

I have type 1 diabetes and depression so I get her big time when explaining it

Teaching children to express emotions with eloquence and a strong vocabulary is crucial to get rid of cursing. Children will copy parents. Make better copies of ourselves. 😊✌🌈
