It’s on the social network Facebook than Paris Jackson decided to confide. Indeed, her boyfriend, Gabriel Glenn, made a behind-the-scenes documentary of the young woman’s life entitled Unfiltered : Paris Jackson & Gabriel Glenn. Between music studio where they record an album together and very personal interviews, the film, during about twenty minutes, has the merit of being impactful. We can discover the fragile but powerful voice of the daughter of the pop star, the latter not hesitating to confide for the less rare about her life. It must be said that she was born in the spotlight, spent her childhood living hidden from the paparazzi and at only 11 years old, became an orphan … Supported by the Jackson clan, the young woman tried, as well as badly, to build herself up, and if on several occasions she has denied having tried to end her life, many rumors have circulated as to her mental health …
“I fell into self-harm”
Today, it seems that she has found a real escape from music … or a way out. In any case, Paris Jackson is no longer reluctant to talk about her troubles that she hopes are part of the past. Because after the death of her famous dad, the young woman found refuge in food. A source of joy that quickly became an ordeal … “Food became an addiction, and when a cousin called me fat, it was the drop of water that made the vase overflow. And I fell into self-harm.”
“I turned emotional pain into physical pain”
To justify these addictive gestures, Paris Jackson explains that she was simply trying not to lose control of her being. “There are many things that cause dopamine release. Self-harm and tattoos are examples. So I was able to divert emotional pain by transforming it into physical pain. It was a form of control that I needed a lot.“
