Ashley Tisdale, who won a big reputation with the ‘High School Musical’ movie series, made a highly personal statement through Instagram shortly after opening about her mental health journey.
The actress & singer posted a photo of herself, that she appears in a bikini while sunbathing in a beach and captioned the photo with highly inspiring words. Tisdale said that was probably the most personal post she has ever shared and spoke of her breast augmentation surgery, its complications and removal phase:
“Years ago I underwent breast enhancement surgery. Prior to the surgery, I constantly felt my body was less than, and thought this change would make me feel more whole and more secure about myself. And for a short period of time… it did. But little by little I began struggling with minor health issues that just were not adding up—food sensitivities as well as gut issues that I thought could be caused by my implants. So, last winter I decided to undergo implant removal.”
‘The Suite Life of Zack & Cody’ star described this process as “self-discovery” and “self-acceptance” and then highlighted the importance of self-love. Later, Tisdale told the story of the photo she shared:
“This picture above was taken two months after my explant surgery and I think you can tell just how happy I am to finally be fully me. Over the years I’ve met with many holistic and non-holistic doctors and learned the importance of living a non-toxic life. I’m super excited to share with you what I’ve learned thus far.”
The 35-year-old, ranked as one of the most influential women, concluded her message as follows:
“I can’t say I’m the proudest of the choices I made in the past but I don’t regret it because it got me here today. ❤️ Love you all!”
