The famous actress talks about depression after filming a horror film

Florence Pugh has revealed that she suffered from depression after filming the film "Midsommar."

The actress revealed that she was "sad for about six months" after filming wrapped, thanks to the film's emotional content.

In the 2019 horror film, Florence played Dan – a character who suffers from extreme family trauma and later witnesses a series of gruesome murders.

"The character is in such a terrible state in her life and is constantly on the verge of a panic attack," Florence said, in a podcast.

The actress revealed that she had never experienced anything like this before.

Having had a comfortable life before making the film, she explained that the experience of filming left her with consequences.

"At first, I just imagined the news that one of my siblings had died. And then, towards the middle of filming, I was like, oh no, I actually have to imagine coffins. And then, towards the end of filming, I was actually going to my whole family's funeral," she said.

The actress even says she feels regret for having emotionally abused and manipulated herself.
