Star of The Bachelorette Hannah Brown Gets Honest About Depression & Trauma

- Most kids are scared of monsters-the kind that hide under the bed or in the closet at night. For some youngsters, however, monsters aren’t figments of their imagination. They are real people who do horrible things and change the trajectory of a child’s life. Just ask Hannah Brown, the star of season 15 of The Bachelorette and the winner of the 2019 season of Dancing With the Stars. In an episode of Scan My Brain, she tells Daniel Amen, MD, about a terrifying ordeal that happened when she was just 7 that changed her outlook on life, made her fearful, and led her on a path to depression.
In the Scan My Brain episode, Brown reveals a traumatic event that changed her life. It happened when she was only 7 years old, but she vividly remembers the day her aunt and cousins were brutally murdered. Brown’s aunt and uncle were kind people who believed in giving people a second chance in life. They had hired a former inmate who had been jailed for a nonviolent offense and who was on work release to work on their home and became friendly with him. Some time later, he started using drugs and needed money. Brown’s aunt got a call from him, and she invited him over. She made tea for him, but then saw him rummaging around in her purse. An altercation ensued, and her aunt and two young cousins were killed.
As a child, all Brown knew of the story was that someone had gone into their home and “hurt” her extended family and that they were now in heaven. Just that bit of knowledge scared her. “I was terrified as a kid. I thought someone was going to come in. I wasn’t scared of monsters. I was scared of a person,” she says.
It wasn’t until years later that Brown pieced together what really happened on that fateful day. In the meantime, other things added to the trauma she experienced. At age 11, she was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer, one of the deadliest forms of cancer. She underwent surgery to have an egg-sized tumor removed, and fortunately, the cancer had not spread to other organs.
Brown eventually fell into depression and sought treatment to try to feel better. “I had never been to a psychiatrist, but I’m on medication,” she tells Dr. Amen in the episode.

4:12 “I wasn’t scared of monsters I was scared of a person” oof that was the realest thing I heard
When I was 9 , My Brother was pushed off a cliff in school rival altercation .... It Broke our already broken family. He was killed By highschool students... No one ever took responsibility..... I think of him Everyday, since 1994 ... I hope all those present at his death , are haunted by it everyday too! Goodluck overcoming this Hannah... Stay strong!
This is horrible! I am so sorry!!
This broke my heart. I can't imagine how painful that must of been to go through and still be going through. I hope you're family is doing okay today! ❤
This is such a powerful story. The event that appeared to her family was horrible. I wish you all of the luck with getting better.
I appreciate Hannah’s vulnerability to open herself up like this. The Dr explaining & showing how the brain patterns tell the story.
My older Brother was murdered. It’s something I’ve lived with everyday.My Mother died of pancreatic cancer, 9 months later my youngest brother died of congestive heart failure. Another Brother died of melanoma cancer after being cleared in February , only to get sick 2 weeks later & they gave him days to live. 6 days later he died . I was my Dads Full time caregiver . Dad died 8 months after my Brother. Life & Death are very real. The choice is to crumble or build character. I chose character. That doesn’t mean a person isn’t living with Real Trauma. It affects your Everyday. My Dad died 2 days before Thanksgiving last year. Every day has been overwhelming. This short discussion with Hannah & Dr Adam is helpful to open the door for more knowledge. If it isn’t Dr Adam there is someone else.
For anyone to say it’s for attention , I truly hope you are able to heal your heart. Life & Death are Real. Trauma is Real. Sending Healing Thoughts to All! 🍃🌹🍃
So good that Hannah and Dr. Amen are sharing this info. The brain, the heart, the gut and the colon all work closely together. It has taken me decades to understand my mind. First, what we eat and drink has a huge impact on our brains. We are energy. Who we hang around is also very important. Raw garlic everyday, chewed with sips of water has definitely helped ease my depression and improved my gut health. I have also learned how to enjoy my own company alone. I really enjoy people as well. I pray to Jesus as if my life depends on His spirit. Cause it does. We are works in progress. Breathing fresh air often and walking helps us move on past the trauma-tracks on our brain. Hannah may be a sensitive-empath like me so relationships can be very challenging. The brain is our last frontier to understand. USA
What a horrible experience her family and Hannah had to go through at such a young age. She is such a bright light, I know she will work hard to feel better. May God bless her and her family. ❤️🇨🇦
Powerful testimony from Hannah Brown. She has written an autobiography entitled God Bless This Mess. She pours her heart and soul into that book.
Thanks for sharing this experience and i wish you complete healing to being the BEST version of you. This is a great example of why we shouldn't judge because we just never know. I ask God for forgiveness for being harshly critical of you after your Bachelorette season. You are a wonderful young lady and i wish you tremendous success in your endeavors.
A lovely comment ❤️ I hope Hannah sees
thank you Hannah for doing this, one day i hope it will be as trivial to talk about mental issues and health as having any other physical issue.
👏bravo!! I hope that day comes soon!
Thank you for sharing your journey, Hannah!
Fantastic video! Normalizing mental health comparable to physical health is a wonderful platform for you Hannah. Your journey will help so many. Thumbs up. Keep on living your truth. We're here for you beautiful lady.
Thank you Hannah for sharing this! I struggle w depression every day. You brought tears to my eyes. I just want to know there's hope for me. I'm going to look into getting a counselor. Love to you.
Thank you for sharing. I have delt with depression all my life. It seems to get worse the older I get!
This is disappointing I have dealt with depression all my life too. It does get worse. There’s no “before the depression “ for me.
@@marah3298 have you tried st John's wort
@@brendfan I haven’t, should I try it?
@@marah3298 yes
@@marah3298 it takes a few weeks though so don't throw it away . Also it interacts with birth control and other medications, as well as SSRIs or antidepressants bc it has a similar mechanism in the brain as them so just be cautious of that otherwise buy a high quality brand and worse case it doesn't work that well for you and you spent maybe thiry Dollars
Hannah you are so cute and brave. I absolutely adore you for doing this publicly and sharing difficult things. You truly save lives by doing this and not hiding it. The stigma prevents a lot of people from getting better, thanks for punching stigma in the face for me. The more people that do this publicly the more the stigma desolves and it can be just like getting a x ray for a broken leg. No one hides that. Thanks love you.
This has been such a blessing to watch. I am going through the same thing.
FYI My mother committed suicide when I was 10 yrs old.The trauma was like a Mac truck hitting me....However I have gone on the have a sad, wonderful , miserable, beyond incredible , thrilling and dreamy life. Everyone needs to know there is a big shortage of Psychiatrists. I live in South Florida and it is nearly impossible to find a Psychiatrist here. SO...people need t o know this fact. This Dr. acts like it is so easy to navigate our Medical System. Our medical system is a nightmare!!!!!
She really needs to do it all for herself first and primarily and thoroughly because part of the issue is people pleasing and doing everything for everybody else first As a pattern historically
I love Hannah especially when she gets candid with everything 💕
Thank you for sharing your journey, Hannah. I am so sorry to hear of the shocking loss of your precious aunt and cousins. You will be one with them one day. May the Lord heal you completely from the traumas you have been thru. Thank you for putting yourself out there publicly to help others heal. God bless you and your loved ones always.
For people asking Hannah mentions her cancer diagnosis when she 11 in her book. I have heard her mention Children’s Hospital being important to her in the past, so I guess this is why. What happened to her aunt and cousins I knew about and the case details are truly horrific.
Thank you for sharing! Really special one.
Thanks for watching!
This was so powerful ~ thank you Hannah for doing this with Dr. Amen💗
I love you so much Hannah for opening up to the world like this!!! So incredible and helpful to others!
She is a amazing human for doing this. Imagine if all the celebrities that had this done share it publicly like she is doing, there would be no more stigma.
This was so good and so interesting! I love following Hannah and Dr. Amen. I'd love to learn more!
its like trauma steals peace of our mind
Thank you Hannah for using your platform for good!!!
Dearest Hannah.. So beautifull to see you recognize Creator God, and place Him in the centre of your life! May He heal you in every area of your life! You are precious! 🙌
These videos are great but I would love follow up videos after treatment to see how well the treatment planned worked.
Yes!
It sounds wonderful, but I also really need to see the proof.
This is a great video. Hannah is very eloquent and relatable. I hope she gets the healing that she needs. I might look in to your website as medicine and therapy have not helped me.

EMDR is the best therapy. I wish there was more emdr therapists in my area. So hard to find!!
Love you Hannah, thank you
Did he say "when you had pancreatic cancer"? She had pancreatic cancer?...
He said it twice and i was thinking the same. If so it's been doubly hard what she's gone through.
Yes, she writes about it in her new book that she had pancreatic cancer when she was younger.
@@irmarfrank1005 yes. When she was a pre-teen, she was diagnosed.
you have to start with eating well, get a full thyroid panel, check for autoimmune issues/all other health issues which cause depression.
I feel the same.wow are you my sister i am so lost when i am.like that

Everyone was put on this earth and has a deep longing to be fully loved for who they were created to be. The foundation of our Identity causes us to continue to yearn for true contentment apart from what we do, or have in this life. We all were created with a purpose and given gifts by our creator, from Whom we were made from His image and we are a reflection of His beauty which was spoken all through His creation, revealed for such a time as this. The kindness of God leads us to repentance because God became man and died for our sins so we can know we are forgiven and in return forgive others. The Spirit of Jesus Christ love working in the hearts who have accepted Him as their Lord and Savior, will accomplish His perfect will in our lives so we can walk in true victory. Earth is not our forever home. We pass from death to eternal life. Jesus is the way, the truth and the life.
If you do not have a relationship with Jesus Christ, now is the time to ask Him for one.
I hope she gets off the meds. They won't help. They will do damage long term.
Would you say same for heart medication, cholesterol medication, blood pressure medication, diabetic medication?
God created everything good. It's not God and science separate. God is THE greatest doctor and scientist. Only He, in the name of Jesus, can heal us. She should be talking to a Christ filled mentor. Does this doctor believe in Jesus or hinself? We give all the glory to the ONE who made us. Don't get it twisted.
Only the priveleded get this kind of help
Somebody get tired of not being in the spotlight much?
“Attention” Seeker… love Dr. Adam though
You love Dr Adam. You must then believe his diagnosis . Hannah has real trauma . My brother was murder
She looks like she has put on weight
