<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">2020 has been a hard year for all of us, even celebrities. With mental health issues constantly rising, many are speaking out about their struggles.

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">LightSkinKeisha tweeted, “</span><span style="font-weight: 400;">Depression is real.” She continued in a now-deleted tweet, “If I disappeared, I think people would be happier.” This really alarmed her fans, and they immediately flooded her comments with support.

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Comments continued to roll in, and LightSkinKeisha shared another tweet to calm everyone down. She tweeted, “Thank you, everybody, for ur concerns. I would NEVER hurt myself. Sometimes I just wanna go away and need space and time to clear my mind cause sometimes things become a lot to deal with. I’m a strong person, but I have weak moments just like any human being. I&#8217;ll be good.”</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The love and positivity didn’t stop there. Her fans continued spreading love and positivity. Another tweeted, “Depression is very real; sadly, some people don’t take it seriously. Hoping you get better.”</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">According to the </span><span style="font-weight: 400;"><a href="https://www.cdc.gov/mmwr/volumes/69/wr/mm6932a1.htm#:~:text=The%20coronavirus%20disease%202019%20(,same%20period%20in%202019.">CDC</a>,</span><span style="font-weight: 400;"> the COVID-19 pandemic has been associated with mental health challenges related to the morbidity and mortality caused by the disease and mitigation activities.
