“I haven’t been on the internet in four and a half years,” Selena explained. “It has changed my life completely. I am happier, I am more present. I connect more with people. It makes me feel normal.”

She went on to say that she believes “understanding” her mental health is the “most important thing in the world” to her. The Only Murders in the Building actress added that she had decided to launch Wondermind in order to help others who were struggling with their mental health.

“I understand that feeling of having no one and — it’s pure — it’s just sadness — and I know what that feels like,” she said. “And I still have days where sometimes I feel like that. It’s just unfortunately part of it.”

“But that’s what we’re trying to do here,” she said of Wondermind. “We want there to be a community and a space for people to feel like they’re OK — that they’re not alone.”

She went on to discuss her experience with mental health as a young person in the entertainment industry.

“Growing up in the spotlight has definitely taught me so much,” she said. “I can’t believe that I am where I am mentally just because how I took the necessary steps in order to kind of remove myself from that. Because it’s just not normal.”

Selena continued, “If I’m known for anything, I hope it’s simply just for the way I care about people. Those days where I don’t want to get out of bed — if I had something like Wondermind, even if it took me a minute to get into it, it’s just there. And there’s something that’s really comforting about that.”
