Lukas Gage<\/a> is detailing how he overcame shame surrounding his mental illness.\u00a0<\/p>\n

After The White Lotus<\/a> alum shared his borderline personality disorder diagnosis in his forthcoming memoir I Wrote This For Attention, he expanded on why he wanted to come forward with such a vulnerable admission.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cFor so long, I didn\u2019t have the words for it, my whole teenage years of thinking it’s depression, anxiety, bipolar, whatever,\u201d Lukas explained in an interview with Them<\/a> published Oct. 9. \u201cI want there to be a conversation that\u2019s not stigmatized and it doesn\u2019t feel like this dirty little secret that you have to have.\u201d<\/p>\n

Indeed, the 30-year-old\u2014whose whirlwind marriage to celebrity hairstylist Chris Appleton ended in 2024\u2014felt inspired by others who had shared the same struggle, including Trisha Paytas, Madison Beer and Julia Fox, adding that it gave him a sense of \u201cclarity.\u201d<\/p>\n

Of course, the <\/a>Euphoria<\/a> star<\/a> also \u201cdidn\u2019t want to live in the shame of hiding it,\u201d despite being advised against sharing the omission by his team. \u201cSome parts of my personality disorder are a pain in my ass,\u201d he continued, \u201cbut some parts I love and are really great, and I don\u2019t think that there\u2019s something inherently wrong with me.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Lukas Gage is detailing how he overcame shame surrounding his mental illness.\u00a0 After The White Lotus alum shared…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":200555,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[35],"tags":[49,48,84,393,394],"class_list":{"0":"post-200554","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-mental-health","8":"tag-ca","9":"tag-canada","10":"tag-health","11":"tag-mental-health","12":"tag-mentalhealth"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/200554","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=200554"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/200554\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/200555"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=200554"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=200554"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=200554"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
