Earlier in the year, the actress also spoke about her battle with anxiety, which she said hit her 'like a ton of bricks'.

'I sat on the uninviting, stark doctor’s bed, hunched over in fear. Fear that I wouldn’t be able to get out of the dreamlike state of detachment,' she said in an essay penned for News Corp. 

'Fear that I wouldn’t realise my potential as the mother I knew I could be, fear that my life would forever be that of a never-ending slow motion horror film.'
