Hannah Brown, like Colton Underwood, has been very open with how her mental health is doing after being on the show. She has always talked about depression and anxiety in her life. After The Bachelorette, she shared on social media how much she struggled.

It didn’t help she chose a man who turned out to be dishonest in the end. She said, “I’m struggling. Life is so different.” She said since the August before, she was a pageant queen, a contestant on The Bachelor, and the Bachelorette. She was in love with more than one person, got engaged, and broke it off.

It’s no different on DWTS. In an entry for Bustle, Hannah revealed she still feels the depression and anxiety she deals with all the time.
