Billie Eilish is understood for addressing her demons in her music – her debut album When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go? addresses her struggles with sleep paralysis and night terrors. Now, the musician has opened up about her experiences with body dysmorphia in an interview for Rolling Stone.
“I’ve never felt comfortable in really tiny clothes,” she says, recalling her time performing with a dance company. “I used to be at all times nervous about my appearance. That was the height of my body dysmorphia. I couldn’t look within the mirror in any respect.” The musician uses fashion as a approach to protect herself from the world, never being seen in public not wearing oversized clothing.
Elsewhere, Eilish speaks about her struggles with depression, self-harm, and anxiety. Not self-harming, she sometimes spots girls with scars at her concert events and has advice for them. “I don’t have scars anymore since it was so way back. But I’ve said to some of them, ‘Just be nice to yourself.’ Because I do know. I used to be there.”
