Three years after she apparently hit “rock bottom” Ruby Rose has written an inspiring message on Instagram about depression.
The actress posted the message after a fan sent her a tweet from March 31, 2013, in which Ruby had written: "It is with great sadness that despite everything I have tried in the short time I was given I am still losing my battle with depression."
Shortly after the tweet was posted Ruby checked into rehab where she began to receive treatment.
Reflecting on the anniversary, the 30-year-old said: "I had hit a rock bottom.. I couldn't find happiness anywhere except my dogs face and even that wasn't enough.
"I thought I had failed at being a human being an adult.”
She continued: "I DIDNT think it meant I'd be able to live my dream. I DIDNT think it would result in this extraordinary life I get to be a part of now...
"It just makes me wonder how many others are days, hours, seconds away from realizing their worth..
"Their potential.. And once the dark cloud is lifted will be truly happy and free.."
Ruby has previously opened up about her difficult childhood and how it led to her battling depression from a young age. After being sexually abused and suffering from bullying, Ruby attempted to take her own life when she was just 12.
We’re glad to see Ruby is doing so much better - and inspiring others on their own road to recovery.
