Shocking Clip on Social Media: Zhao Lusi “Cried for Help” Before Falling into Tragedy, But Everyone Ignored It
The psychological instability of Zhao Lusi had already started to show.
News about Zhao Lusi’s health has been constantly trending on Weibo, attracting hundreds of millions of views. The actress was revealed to be suffering from aphasia and had to undergo physical therapy to regain her ability to walk and stand after being hospitalized for emergency care. During the time when Zhao Lusi fell seriously ill, netizens from China dug up a video where the 1998-born beauty had previously shared her struggles with psychological instability, hoping to be treated more gently.
Specifically, in an interview with iFeng in 2023, Zhao Lusi mentioned that “her mental state had changed a lot” just a few years after becoming famous. The actress confided that she had once considered herself someone who was very good at maintaining mental balance and stress relief, even helping friends overcome crises. However, after facing one wave of difficulties after another, she felt completely exhausted. Zhao Lusi did not go into detail about the challenges she faced but confirmed that she had never encountered “such a huge storm and turmoil.”
In the interview with iFeng, Zhao Lusi had also stated that her mental state had changed and she had lost the ability to balance herself.
“Sometimes I think I might have a mental illness. There are times when I’m very happy, but just in a moment, I feel sad, as if the world is collapsing, and I begin to think about the dark moments that will happen to me. Gradually, I couldn’t understand myself anymore. I tried to push through by not giving up, by avoiding negative emotions. Therefore, I hope the world would treat me more gently and kindly,” Zhao Lusi shared.
The actress revealed that she often experiences mood swings, even having negative thoughts.
Currently, the interview clip with Zhao Lusi and iFeng is receiving widespread attention from Chinese netizens. According to online speculations, the actress had signaled for help, hoping for attention to her mental illness since last year, but the public had not noticed. Many people have expressed their deep sympathy upon seeing her fragile mental state but still trying to stay strong and cheerful.
According to Zhao Lusi, the actress had been feeling unwell since December 9. On December 18, while filming “Lover,” she fainted and was rushed to the hospital. Prior to this, on December 14, Zhao Lusi had already been admitted to the hospital in a condition where she couldn’t walk, her face pale, eyes glazed over, and with no energy left, requiring oxygen.
In addition, blogger Liu Daichui also stated that Zhao Lusi had been suffering from depression for a long time and was showing signs of losing control. “She is afraid of light and cold, always feels suffocated, as if she is about to die. She wants to block everything from the outside and refuses to communicate. When under immense pressure, her body collapses, and she can’t control her emotions. She might even harm herself,” Liu Daichui said. Recently, the actress’s condition has worsened as she faced oppression on the set of the project “Lover.”
