yes for sagittarius energy

That as well as the loss of privacy and the endless pursuit by vampires probably play a factor. Some are better equipped than others. Child actors can have it rough, especially when they're forced into the spotlight by parents who see their gold ticket.

So Lacanian
What is this?
Look up imaginary order, symbolic order and the real.

I think celebrities start getting depressed when they are out of the line light and their careers are done. If they have degrees and can move on to something else then they are ok. Or if they made a lot of money and invested it well, they are ok.
It’s the ones that have to get a regular job or have no skills and no money, that become depressed.
They are shamed about being recognized as a regular joe and people seeing them as regular and broke, like the rest of us.

Imaginary order is their characters and ability to transform their identity to others.
Symbolic order is the material, the script, the movie, the costume.
The Real is the loss of both and ego stripped bare. When real identity forms.

Some people think money will create happiness. But when they have it they realize nothing changed.
Drepression is a chemical imbalance in the brain.
Celebrities doing tons of drugs mess up the natural release of endorphins in their brains. So when the drugs don’t work anymore, and your brain isn’t producing it like it should. Things get thrown off balance. -This is just one example. Other are born with the imbalance.
I don’t think they would ever truly be happy unless they were on a prescription cocktail that worked for them.click to expand

I think balance is the key to everything, and there doesn’t seem to be a ton of balance with that way of life. When normalcy is eradicated from your life like that it seems pretty normal to me that many in that situation would become depressed. All of a sudden you’d be questioning everything and everyone and maybe coming to terms with the fact that money doesn’t magically fix things or make you happier. It could potentially rattle a person for sure. However, it could be combatted for sure. I think many have to really work at keeping things balanced like it’s a full time job.

It don’t think it’s a matter of getting depressed necessarily.
I think a lot of performers use that as a way of channeling the negative energy or depression they already have.
Then when you get famous enough to have everything possible at your fingertips and that energy still isn’t resolved by money and popularity and access there can be a deep sense of despair of having it all but it feeling meaningless and then what else can you do with yourself at that point?

no, fame is not related with depression, but there are shared factor between people who are famous that could lead to depression.
I have theorized many things for years about that phenomenon
but I'm not sure what you mean by "not real" or "someone else" is this related to Jung's persona somehow?.
if that's the case it could lead to many psychological problems, depression can be one of those, as generally everyone need this 'persona' (a kind of social mask) to conceal the true nature of our 'desires and dislikes', instead taking the collective ideals of what we should be, in the case of famous people this persona seems to takes a more vivid role, creating an excessive concern for what other people think, along the desire to fulfill these "ideals" they expect, teenager seems to go through a similar stage in their development, but Jung believed that becoming one with this
persona would end in a repressed individuality, 'unconscious to themselves and their inner realm'.
I believe this is the reason why many famous people wonder If other people likes them for who they "really" are.click to expand

Bret Hart - Hitman is the best book I’ve ever read on this. By far.

We often hear stories from celebrities who have/had it hard, I know they're still humans like all of us, but sometimes I have a hard time feeling sorry for them. I don't understand people who have everything and still find ways to complain. Yes life is hard, but when you earn 151150041515 dollars don't expect me to cry for you. Besides they chose this life, with fame comes all the good and bad.

Over the years I've become famous and well known for my creativity.
When people come up to me and say "omg your famous." Its a mind trip.
I enjoy/love the spotlight BUT I don't take it home with me.
Theres got to be a balance.
How I look "on stage" is quite different from normal day. I look homeless most of the time.
I prefer to conceal and hide when I'm not on stage. Able to enjoy people ...normally.... without them wanting me to be "ON".

Fame is a broad term. The human history is filled with people who yearned to be famous for the wrong reasons. Then again - fame is not really a positive aspiration (after all - its core nature/meaning is derived from vanity). To quite a large extent - it's a sickness. Some chase fame for fame itself (to be famous for whatever reason - even something really stupid like "the Jackass TV series" - tho, that's a different time... since TV fame was kinda replaced by YouTube fame - where every idiot with a camera can become famous for acting retarded, for example - channels like Onision, PewDiePie, MrBeast and all the others alike). Others try to fill a personal void/lacking. And then there are those who chase fame for some gain (mainly financial). Either way - they're all sick to begin with. And yes - depression is a common outcome for fame addicts. Kinda like the saying "what goes UP must come down" - everyone who climbed the ladder of fame - reached a point where they had to face the fall (from success). And that's usually when depression starts knocking at their door. The fall from grace is hard for everyone - but it can be more impactful on someone who used to be famous (that point when they can't even compete with their former selves - while other artist keep rising further - beyond their reach). Maybe that's why vanity earned its well deserved place - as one of the deadly sins.

Sure, there is such thing as accidental fame or some achievement that comes with their line of work (Nobel prize winners - for example). Tho, struggles like depression are usually tied to vanity (failed expectations or being stuck in the past - in a time when they were somehow greater/better). If they don't embrace the fame and wallow in it (if it's all about the work they do - if that's what makes them happy - not the fame that comes with that) - they should be fine. As far as i know - most Nobel prize winners are not depressed, same goes for many successful athletes who reached the end of their career (some even chose to quit while they were ahead), or even artists who gave up on fame to focus more on their family life and such (tho, this are usually more rare - cause many artists are consumed by vanity).
To put it in a different way... there's all kinds of people that were gifted in one way or the other (physical beauty or some artistic talent) - and they might become successful cause of that. Let's say they're really private (introverts to a T) - and thus they find some aspects of their fame quite uncomfortable. Still, that level of discomfort is far from depression. If anything - is a source of annoyance - but it's something they can live with. Just fine.click to expand

I read your words, more than once, I felt them, like I know what you really talk about it.
These things are real.
People see me as god, something not human, I have to talk in a different way, act in a different way, it’s not me, it’s something different.
Thank you

Yeah, for me it’s all about privacy
At the first I kept everything very private, but some of the followers are really obsessed
I feel like kind I’m not me anymore, like I’m watching myself doing all the work, it becomes a work-a second one
I started it for fun, and just to share my daily days, I never planned for this
In the first I was happy and proud of myself, but now, I don’t know
I feel like Something missing, like this is not me
And allll that people wha want to talk with me, like I’m god, when in real, I’m normal woman, who just wanna live in peace
My sister told me:” this something you can’t quite from, now this is you” but I’m really not comfortable with itclick to expand
