We already adore Gina Rodriguez from her show, Jane the Virgin, but she just made us love her even more by being open about her struggle with anxiety.
The actress shared a 10-second video of herself “bare and exposed” in Los Angeles. While Gina is used to being in front of the camera, in the video she's makeup free and what she calls “puro Gina.”
Gina's caption reveals her relatable AF thoughts about anxiety. Anyone who has anxiety knows exactly what she's talking about. “Watching this clip I could see how anxious I was but I empathize with myself. I wanted to protect her and tell her it's ok to be anxious, there is nothing different or strange about having anxiety and I will prevail," she writes. "I like watching this video. It makes me uncomfortable but there is a freedom I feel maybe even an acceptance.”

Thank you, Gina, for keeping it real, as always.
