Chyler told Access Hollywood that it took her nearly a decade to feel comfortable talking about her mental health journey in public, but she wants to encourage others to speak out and know that they’re not alone.

Deep respect to Chyler always liked since her GA days.
Me too! I started watching Supergirl because of her. 👉🏻👈🏻
Wala Sami hi Legih Chyler ❤️👍help all better cant Doctor world smart now better please you people
Yess same
Is this the girl from not another teen movie?
@@rosecoloredtimes - It is!!
Can Chyler be any cooler and wonderful. Love her as Alex on Supergirl and she is amazing beside Melissa as the Danvers sisters.
she was pretty hot too before making her get a lesbo haircut
@@BigB0ss00 you have been CANCELED. You hater of LGBTQ+
But yeah she was hotter. Almost all women are with longer hair. I know that long hair is a PITA but shoulder length hair shouldn't be that hard to take care of. FYI for women, men don't pay microscopic attention to your hair for you to have it perfect all the time.
@@BigB0ss00 Don't let Mike H troll you. You're right! 👍
@@BigB0ss00 Mmmm well... i think she still keeping that haircut because she still interpreting Alex's character. That could be a good reason why she didn't has her long hair yet.
Oh, that role may well help her big time, come to think of it; not everything she's gotten into on that, but rather that specific bond altogether.
Lexi Grey greys anatomy. Loved her
She was one of my favorites
"Little Grey" 🤗
Kristy Hurt correction ‘love’ lexi is still in our hearts 💕
I love that Chyler is advocating for comprehensive conversation about mental health and partnering with an organization that provides resource and information. 👏👏 advocacy and resources go hand and hand. Love her for this open honestly too💙
I had no idea that she struggled with these issues, I love her as Alex I think she's a great actress and now I know this its only given me more respect for her and has made me relate to her more she is definitely a inspiration for everyone who struggles with mental health issues
Chyler and Melissa are two strong beautiful honest women I just love them.Best actresses on Supergirl.
rameek drahcir how do you rate honesty?
Yes. Melissa, Chyler and don't forget Katie ! 😊
@@userA600 ...and Arzi 👌
@@07Flash11MRC You mean Azie Tesfai ?

Amazing!

"Sometimes the most important thing to do is just listen." As a mental health advocate (& a patient) I feel this quote cannot be overstated. Kudos to Chyler for putting it out there.
"I wasn't given room to speak, about how I was feeling " and being put "in a position of strength that I didn't necessarily have" at around the same age as Chyler. Oh boy, I know how that feels. No wonder there is such depth of feelings in her portrayals. Good luck Chyler. All strength to you.
Another actor on this show that helps me even though she doesn’t know it. Well at least she helped me in this interview. I wish her all the best.
OMFGGG.... She LITERALLY just rose up SIGNIFICANTLY in my list of my fav actresses of ALL TIME.... 😳😳😳.... Considering the fact that I have a full blown quintuple diagnosis of OCD, ADHD, Tourette's Syndrome, Major Depressive Disorder (MDD), and Bipolar Type 1 Disorder.... Luv ya Chyler... you're LITERALLY amazing!! Especially since I'm such a big fan of Supergirl and the Arrowverse!! (Btw, on that note, just wanted to say that I can't say that for the latter half of Crisis on Infinite Earths!!! Still have a bit of catching up to do but I'll be sure to keep an eye for u personally!!! 😜😜😜😘😘😘). Finally, in conclusion, just wanted to say that your husband, Nathan, your kids, the rest of your fam, and your friends are INCREDIBLY lucky to have u in their life!!! Wishing you all the best this holiday season and New Year's 2020!!!

People like her makes me feel less alone with my mental health. She is so steong
She is so strong talking about her struggle. I don't feel alone or ashamed of my depression
I'm bipolar as well, and it's awesome to hear these wise words from such an amazing actress and person. Go Chyler!!!
Props to this girl. As a recovering addict I can't imagine going thru what we go thru under so much public scrutiny. God bless her
She's so beautiful. I think she has such a strong soul to be open and advocating for herself and for others shamelessly and bringing awareness to the disorder and sharing with others there is hope out there as well as resources and support systems within arms reach.
😔😔😔Very important to talk about mental health issues🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻And I hope she feels better.
Seeing her, I can't help but think about her death on GA, and the deep sorrow of Mark who let himself die because he couldn't bare being alive whereas she is not. I regret them, deeply. What a waste for Shonda.
she wanted to leave, her kid was hvaing seizures too, and she needed to spend time with the fam
What a beautiful woman she is, inside and out x
she was killing me with those brown eyes, she is so brave and smart wish her and her family the best.
Amor de she was kilimge
Chyler Leigh is such a sweetheart. She is intelligent, beautiful and a brave person in general.
I feel her😣 aside from that, she's a badass in supergirl
So brave of her to speak up and be open. Love her
Very brave of her for coming out like this. Much love and support to you Chyler!
Scott Decker Guess When Melissa Decided to Come forward With Her Story Last Month of Being a Domestic Abuse Survivor. Chyler Decided to do the Same, But with Her Dealing With Bi-Polar Disorder.
I have always loved to hear what Chyler says but this is so LOUD! Incredible push here for communities of people that don’t get to vocalize their emotions all the time.
She’s incredible. What a strong beautiful person.
Chyler is such a wonderful person. I love what you do Chyler and that you speak up is so amazing. Thank you so much
I suffered epilepsy and that's one of my aftermaths!I am so overwhealmed that she has this..Her and Mel are such powerful and inspiring women!!♥️
My mother never got the way i am feeling and i feel so lost and distant sometimes..It's horrible and so tiring..
I grew up the same way and listening to her now just makes me want to cry..
I wish having someone who'll listen..
Thank you for these words Chy!!♥️#Respect #StayStrong
I love her adore her...and she's one of the best person inside out and this makes me wanna meet her in person and tell her how amazing is making us out here feel...so inspired by her words acting singing and doing. God bless your chyler..and entire family. Love from Kenya 🙏
She is Straight up Stunning!!!
So much respect for her. Mental health is a thing people talk about more now, but it's still slightly taboo in some circles. Not easy to admit we're vulnerable.
What an amazing person she is :)
Thank you so much for sharing your story Chyler, it helps so much to not feel alone.
You are amazing. I have bipolar disorder. It takes time to adjust to learn with the struggles. You need to find what you love it and be happy.
wow my respect for her just rose incredibly. she is so strong and brave. also could she be any prettier she is gorgeous and so sweet.

Wow. What a QUEEN. Beautiful.
She is just amazing!!
I luv u Alex Danvers!
What an amazing and brave human being 🤍
Hello Chyler, Nice Meeting You. Awesome. I am impressed. I applause for you. You did the right thing. You are amazing. I applause you 👏👏👏👏. I salute you forever. Hat Off To Chyler. God Bless You 😊😊😊😍😍😍😍🤟🤟🤟🤟
God Bless You ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I like her on Supergirl. She comes off as genuine and likable here. Seems smart. She's awfully pretty too. Her eyes are amazing. Not a lot of people could hold a candle to Melissa Benoist, but Chyler can pull it off.
My baby, she deserves the world
She's so strong to share her story.
Amazing woman. Great interview.
She’s so strong 💙 it’s so amazing of her to educate others and share her story
I can relate to this so much in the way that you to take care of everyone- my mum has bipolar and it’s constantly effecting everyone around me (espically because she is in denial) and since I deal with things in a much more isolated way everything kinda falls on me, I’m my mum’s emotional support, my younger brothers keeper and I’m constantly suffering from my dads hero complex.
I love seeing her when she talks...
Alex ❤️
Chyler is an amazingly beautiful Lady and human being.
Awesome. Both Melissa Benoist and Chyler Leigh are real life strong female heroes. Having the courage to voice their experience. It is not easy to admit to one's past, one's addiction, one's hardships, one's mental health background. Indeed, mental health is strongly correlated to addiction, as evident in her life. From drug/sustance to behaviour addiction in religious faith. It is not about the "downs." But how you cope and use your voice. We, as females and males, should stand firm and be strong.
Chyler!💙
Fell in love with her back when she did The video for Mansons version of Tainted love
I wish there's more episodes being made a month I love this series I've watched every episode like 3 times
And now I'm watching flash while waiting for more supergirl episodes. :)
I love her even more now! 😊
pain is the primary source of wisdom in life. wisdom is not fun. but luck is better then wisdom when it comes to learning but wisdom comes to all who survive trauma, not that trauma ever ends but surviving through it regardless as long as you can hold on.
She is so strong
Respect
Respect!
She's my hero. On and offscreen
Love her hair like this. She... Looks... Bomb.
So cool
Chyler has definitely been through the wars , from Cocaine drug addition from 2001 to 2002, being clean since then, to being diagnosed with bipolar disorder in 2009 and then having to battle herself through COVID in 2020 and to recover from this...Chyler earns my deep respect for someone who has struggled, battled her way through and recovered, she has also managed to keep her family together having been married in 2002 and having three children in 2003, 2006 and 2009, she is may have played Alex Danvers in "Supergirl" but Chyler is her own superhero in her own right and definitely earns this!!
Gratitude for informa. Gratitude for tour courage! Gratitude!
She is still a superhero to me!! Real talk
Chyler,I think it was your self esteem that was going bad.when you took off with the ride I knew riiight there you wanted to get better,but when no one wants to listen,it gets ugly.you stay strong girl,it's your world now...
Chyler is the perfect actress to play Jill Valentine in a Resident Evil movie / tv show.
Love her on Supergirl, ya wouldn't think, never judge unless u no I suppose 🤘👽
She's awesome
I think me bipolar. I can use your guidance. Thanks a lot. Great celebrity and Person. 🐳
Love Chrysler Leigh ❤❤
I loved chyler on greys she awesome
Wow so beautiful
I get where shes coming from,there are a few people in my family that deal w mental health issues.
If you can tolerate bipolar from individuals around then you also know how much effort to understand the situation. Don't think that if someone has that diagnosis that they can have an excuse to harm people because of it. It's best to recognize that mental portion as part of their character long term and handle the situation that way.
The one thing I would tell someone who has a family member who comes to them with mental illness or emotions they are feeling is to not invalidate their feelings.....For me, I would always open up to a specific family member, and she would always make me feel like I shouldn't be feeling the way I was feeling...She would say, don't be sad about this, just be positive, just be grateful that you have other things like family and friends.....It's important to Validate other people's feelings and say it's ok that you are feeling this way, you are allowed to feel wathever you are feeling.....Otherwise, it makes you feel guilty for having those feelings, you will suppress them, but they'll always come back later if you don't aknowledge them! You are allowed to feel what you are feeling!
Nice 👍
I like her hair
Chyler
I hope you get the help that you need......
my lexi 😭💕
I lovely tour job um Supergirl.You are THE rare jewel people.
I have bipolar disorder sense I was 16 now I am almost 35
💕💕💕
God help her get ahead 🙏😘👍❗
I miss our little Grey ☹️☹️☹️
❤️
A hero just like her screen sister, am I right ?
Chyler Leigh meet you far
I wonder if that is part of the reason why she left Grey's Anatomy back in 2012. Ellen Pompeo, who plays Meredith Grey, never talks about her sister, Lexi Grey, who is Chyler, whose character died in a plane crash, on the show since. Nor she Lexi to her new found sister or her own children... since 2012. I always thought it was strange..
Ur not alone 😞
Love you yes same chyer legih find new son not more alone
that lexie look in the beginning😭😭
I don't think that's cheesey I totally agree there are heroes all around the world
I hope she has looked into the term COPMI (or ACOPMI).. Children of Parents with a Mental Illness / Adult Children of Parents with a Mental Illness.
Ella es hermosa persona, aceptar que tiene una enfermedad asi ,y que aun asi formó su flia ,tuvo hijos a sido y es un gran desafío, en Argentina tenemos una persona en el poder y sus 2 lados son malos, muy feo realmente,, y no sé si la bipolaridad es curable o solo como mi diabetes controlable
Porque nosotros queremos el gran regreso de la hermos magiee de una manera o otra ellas nos hicieron volver a creer en el amor magiee y alex por siempre
ua-cam.com/video/dI52XpGYuIA/v-deo.html
and i the only one that didn’t realize that she was in greys anatomy as greys half sister like wtf am i that clueless
Melissa also revealed that she experienced painful situations
The unnecessary adding of a background beat track, distracting and insulting, demeans the seriousness and honesty of the matter being discussed.
I miss Kylie Grey's Anatomy she is a good character
❤🧡💛
