In 2017, Gabourey Sidibe released her memoir This is Just My Face: Try Not to Stare, in which she wrote about her mental health problems while in college. Following her weight loss in 2016, Gabby’s had depression and endured panic attacks. In college, sometimes she could stop eating for days.
Taking the step to get help is easier said and done. She tried speaking to her family about what was happening, but her mother didn’t treat it as a serious matter.
At the same time, Sidibe is clear about the fact that her mother isn’t a bad person, just that she didn’t understand her daughter needed help from a professional.
“I couldn’t tell her that I couldn’t stop crying and that I hated everything about myself. Whenever I did try to open up, my mom seemed unconcerned,” Sidibe wrote, according to People.
“When I was sad about something, she told me to ‘get a thicker skin.’ When I was upset, she told me to ‘stop nitpicking.’ My mom has always had faith that things would be okay, but saying ‘tomorrow will be a better day’ wasn’t enough for me.”

“Frankel has racked up frequent-flyer miles in pursuit of branding opportunities for his clients, traveling to Mumbai with Major Lazer for the opening ceremonies of the Indian Premier League cricket finals and to a mall in Moscow with Yung Lean for a Calvin Klein campaign,” the magazine wrote.
Sidibe and Frankel share their love with fans through their Instagram pages. On New Year’s Eve, Brandon posted a picture of the pair, calling his girlfriend “Queen”.
“You’re a ball of sunshine, so generous and giving of your time and love- and your excitement and passion for life and people/things you love truly lights up my heart. You’ve taught me so much about life, myself, and the world that is truly invaluable. You make me push myself to be a better me, even though you probably don’t even realize you are. I love you more and more every single day- which seems impossible, but continually amazes me,” Brandon wrote.
As mentioned, Sidibe underwent weight loss in 2016, followed by aparoscopic bariatric surgery in March 2017.
