Millie Bobby Brown's anxiety
The mom of one revealed that the vulnerable feeling made her feel unconfident and gave her chills, saying, "It was really traumatising 20 minutes" of her life.
"In that moment, something switched in my mind," as she was travelling with her family in Japan at the time.
The 20 minutes of stress
The Godzilla actress, who is embracing motherhood for the first time with her adopted baby, said, "I went to Japan, not thinking it would be some spiritual journey. When I got there, I still really felt anxious. Sometimes we’d go to a restaurant, and I’d say to my husband, ‘I can’t go in. We need to go back."
She also shared the procedure through which she overcame the anxiety after meeting a Japanese "gentleman" "who was just so calm and almost felt like he saw me. I was at the height of my anxiety at this point. He knew that I was kind of broken."
