Ryan Reynolds Says His Anxiety Makes Him Feel Like a 'Different Person' From His Public Persona (people.com)

 

Ryan Reynolds seems like one of the most confident people in Hollywood. He's constantly ribbing on famous friends like Hugh Jackman, playing brash characters like Deadpool and married to another A-lister, Blake Lively. But that public persona is very different from the anxious person he is on the inside, Reynolds says.

The 45-year-old actor has dealt with intense anxiety since he was a child, Reynolds said on CBS Sunday Mornings.

"I've had anxiety my whole life really. And you know, I feel like I have two parts of my personality, that one takes over when that happens," Reynolds, who stars and produces in his upcoming Netflix film, The Adam Project, said Sunday.

"Part of that is to destigmatize things and create a conversation around [mental health]," Reynolds continued. "I know that when I felt at the absolute bottom, it's usually been because I felt like I was alone in something I was feeling. So I think when people talk about it, I don't necessarily dwell on it or lament on it, but I think it's important to talk about it. And when you talk about it, it kind of sets other people free."
