Rose McGowan took to Instagram on Wednesday with a candid statement about how she's been experiencing depression as of late, but remains hopeful it will pass.
'I haven’t been posting because I’ve been deeply sad and very low,' the Brave author, 47, wrote. 'Depression is an intense beast. If you’ve read my book I speak openly [about] depression, trauma PTSD. I speak of my history with the mine that wants me to sleep forever.'
The Certaldo, Italy-born actress said that depression 'blocks the sun for so many of us' adding, 'If you suffer from this I want you to know that you are not alone.'
'I want me to know that I’m not alone, no matter how hard my mind whispers thoughts of ... the sleep 30 hours kind of sad. The crying & don’t know why sad. The I just wanted to stop sad.'
The Charmed actress vowed she 'will never put up a false front to the world & post a false joy [she's] not feeling.'
She wrapped up with a message acknowledging her struggle and holding optimism that better days lie ahead.
'Depression is a beast to dance with,' she wrote. 'Sometimes the beast holds your head down. But what I know is there will be late again. For all of us.
'And the day will come when the weight of sadness will disappear. And we will raise our faces to the sun.'
The text post from McGowan, who moved to Mexico last year, was framed against a background of shrubbery and sunlight.
