During that period, Rui En also said that she suffered from insomnia and poor appetite.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt didn\u2019t become serious overnight; it was gradual,\u201d recounted Rui En to Lianhe Zaobao. \u201cFrom the time I realised my mood was low to when I came out of it, it took about six months.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>She added: \u201cMy chest was tight all the time, it was painful. So I\u2019m really grateful that I recovered within half a year. Because I know how hard it is, I want to promote mental health awareness and let others going through it know they\u2019re not alone.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Singaporean actress Rui En recently opened up about her battle with depression.
