Ellen Adarna, Aminadong Dumanas ng Depression sa Loob ng Tatlong Taon

Ellen Adarna admitted that she had depression and that she was emotionally and mentally weak. This was after she shared her mental training in Bali, Indonesia where she had two weeks without contact with the outside world. And it looks like all she did was total detox and anti-stress relaxing.

In a video, Ellen's feet were tied together and she squat jump for 5 kilometers. There was a balance exercise where Ellen stood in the small box with a needle on the floor so she couldn't fall. There is even standing tree meditation, as well as body wrapping used for those who want to slim down and detox.

On Instagram, the former actress opened up about her mental problems that have been plaguing her for more than three years. According to Ellen, it got so bad that she knew she needed professional help right away. Ellen flew to Bali, Indonesia to meet with her trainer.

"To everyone asking, I did mental training coz I was stuck in this black hole for almost years. My anti-depressants didn't do me any good, it made me immobile and numb. I was getting weaker mentally and emotionally – something had to be done. I can now finally say, after 3 years of struggling... I am no longer a prisoner in my own mind."

As of now, Ellen is still on Bali. Her toddler son is left at the care of her family in Cebu. It's not known when Ellen will be back home.

On the other hand, this led many people to wonder about Ellen's recent split with John Lloyd Cruz. According to some fans, Ellen's instability and John Lloyd's alcohol problems might have caused a strain in their relationship. The two have a child together, Elias Modesto.
