Florence Pugh Describes Mental Health Struggles After Filming Midsommar

Florence Pugh, an actress, talked about how a movie called Midsommar made her feel very sad for a long time.

She played a character who went through a lot of terrible things, and to act it well, Florence had to pretend to feel those bad feelings too.

When she finished acting, it was like she couldn't stop feeling sad.

She said it was like she was abusing her own emotions to do a good job.

She realized later that all that pretending made her depressed for about six months.

She learned that she shouldn't push herself that hard emotionally for a role anymore, especially after doing a fun movie like 'Little Women' right before.

She even cried on a plane because she felt so strange about what she had put herself through.
