Tallulah’s mental health worsened as she got older, leading her to turn to drugs to numb the pain. “In college, the depression became overwhelming,” she shared. “I didn’t sleep or want to talk to anyone, nothing seemed to have a point, the world lost its color, and food lost its taste. I was so removed from my body and from my mind that it was like I was living in a cardboard replica of what life should be.”
Eventually, Tallulah sought help in 2014 by admitting herself to a treatment facility for substance abuse and disordered eating.
“Things are not perfect by any means but I radiate more positive energy on a daily basis then I ever thought possible,” she wrote on Instagram that year, shortly after going sober. “No longer allowing chemicals to infiltrate my bod was the best decision I’ve ever made.”
