Stars: they're just like us! From People.com:
There have been times, though, when [Alicia Keys'] tendency to hold back was emotionally draining – when she battled depression."I was feeling so sad all the time, and I couldn't shake it," she says. "I started burying my feelings, and it got to a point where I couldn't even tell my family or my friends, 'I'm twisted,' or 'I'm exhausted,' or 'I'm so angry.' ... I became a master of putting up the wall so that I was unreadable."
Keys recently told Uptown Magazine that she "had to learn to let go" to overcome her depression.
I love Alicia. I hope she's feeling better!
