Conquering Sleep Disorders: Caroline Néron’s Journey
Néron’s challenges began after her business collapsed in 2019. During this difficult period, she relied on Ativan to find rest. She described her battles with insomnia, stating, “I couldn’t sleep unless I took an Ativan. I was constantly fighting against a dark abyss.” This honesty highlights the severe impact sleep disorders have had on her life.
The Struggle with Medication
The actress, recently seen in “La collecte,” wanted to illustrate her struggles through a poignant photo in her book, “Néron inc.: La force de l’épreuve.” The image depicts a weary Néron beside various pill bottles. She explained her decision to share this moment, revealing the contradiction between her public persona as a strong woman and her private vulnerabilities.
“People often perceive me as very strong due to my voice and my career. But I wanted to show that I too have faced heavy challenges and turned to pills for comfort,” she explained. The path to recovery was not easy. Néron admitted that ceasing her medication was a significant hurdle for her.
A Turning Point
A pivotal moment in her recovery came after a heartfelt conversation with her sister-in-law, who is a psychiatrist. She emphasized, “I didn’t want to move on to antidepressants. But I realized that sometimes, you cannot overcome things alone. It’s essential to seek help.”
- Engaging with a psychologist
