“I WAS GOING THROUGH THE UNHAPPIEST TIMES OF MY LIFE”

Stating that during her heaviest period she developed an addiction to eating, the actress said she faced serious difficulties in her daily life. Cooper expressed what she went through with these words: “I support body positivity wholeheartedly. However, during the period when I was at my heaviest, I was going through the unhappiest times of my life and had a serious food addiction. I was not healthy. I couldn't breathe while climbing stairs. I was very unhappy.”
SHE EXPLAINED THE EFFECT OF THE MEDICATIONS SHE USED ON HER WEIGHT GAIN
The famous actress also explained that one of the reasons for the weight gain she experienced in the past was the medication she used. Cooper, stating that she used medications containing quetiapine for anxiety and depression, said she felt constantly hungry during the treatment process. The actress described that period with these words: “I gained a lot of weight. I couldn't climb stairs without being drenched in sweat. When the weather was hot, my legs rubbed together. I was using quetiapine for anxiety and depression. These medications made me constantly hungry. After I decided to stop using them, my weight started to come off quickly.”
