DeWanda Wise had an epic 2018. Her lead role in Spike Leeās Netflix reboot of āSheās Gotta Haveā it received rave reviews and was renewed for a second season. She also landed a role in āCaptain Marvelā co-starring opposite Larson, Samuel L. Jackson, Jude Law, and Ben Mendelsohn.
But it seems that as wonderful as her career is, it isnāt all peaches and cream. A few days ago, the star took to Instagram to reveal her battle with depression.
āYa girl got some pretty challenging news this week, & on this #InternationalWomensDay I find myself battling sadness & #depression. Still, Iām thankful for the highs and lows. Combined they make me both confident and compassionate. In them I find just how strong my weaknesses are. I keep hearing āLife is not happening to you, itās happening for youā & today Iām struggling to make the truth of that stick. Thank you to all the women whose resolve & tenacity keeps me going. @kdgiggles @lhgill @wayetu @appleofhisai & insta-less Misha. If youāre battling something today, letās make another day together. @jefftse123ā
We have no idea what the bad news is, but fans were appreciative of her pure honesty and offered her tons of support in response.
Weāre sending positive vibes Ms. Wiseās way. Feel better soon!
