Rachel Platten recalls 'very, very dark time' with her mental health

Rachel Platten says it's a 'miracle' she is able to perform in front of the nation on Thanksgiving Day after years of struggling with depression, anxiety and chronic pain

Rachel Platten was too scared to go out in public "a couple of years ago" due to chronic pain and anxiety.

The 'Fight Song' hitmaker - who has daughters Violet Skye, five, and three-year-old Sophie Jo with husband Kevin Lazan - went through a "very, very dark time" when she battled postpartum depression after the births of her daughters and has battled with anxiety and her mental health for years, so it's a "miracle" that she is now preparing to perform at Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade in New York on Thursday (28.11.24).
