Ferreira opens up about battling anxiety, depression, and Internet pressures
Four years ago, Ferreira opened up about her struggles with "crippling anxiety," "depression issues, eating issues, paranoias," and other "weird things" she attributed to the internet.
In an interview with Cosmopolitan, she candidly discussed mental health and the pressures and world events that have negatively affected her generation.
"As an elder Gen Z, we’ve gotten our fair share of bad times," she said.
"I mean, my first day of kindergarten was 9/11. We were the guinea pigs of the internet — you’re 11, and the darkness of the entire world is just packed into your computer and you’re scrolling through it. 'That had to do something to my brain," she went on.
Ferreira continued, "I mean, I got crippling anxiety. A lot of depression issues, eating issues, paranoias, and just weird things that I’m one thousand per cent certain are from the internet."
Her deep emotional sensitivity might have actually benefited her career. Barbie attributes her journey into acting to her nature as a deeply "emotional" and "empathetic" child.
She also commented on the increasing hostility in the country, which she believes has led to rising levels of "sadness" and "mental neuroses," especially among younger generations.
Barbie Ferreira faces speculation over possible Ozempic use
Known for her reluctance to discuss her size, Barbie Ferreira has remained silent on the matter.
While fans praised her captivating photos, some speculated that she might be using Ozempic, a diabetes medication known for its weight loss effects.
One viewer said, "Also she could be diabetic or pre-. Not to be unkind, but at her prior weight it is definitely a possibility. So the Ozempic could actually be keeping her healthy."
Another viewer said, "Whatever she did or took, it appears to have been a great idea."
One viewer noted, "Definitely Ozempic, she looks great though."
A follower observed, "Ozempic maybe but she does look good."
One comment read, "Whatever she is doing she looks much healthier."
Another comment read, "Ozempic train."
"Ohhhhhh zempic," said one person playfully.
