Bowen Yang, a cast member of the popular TV show Saturday Night Live, has recently opened up about his mental health struggles. As the first openly gay Asian-American member of SNL’s cast, Yang is known for his humor and talent. In addition to his work on SNL, he also co-hosts a podcast called Las Culturistas. However, Yang announced on his Instagram stories over the weekend that he will be taking a short break from the podcast. He explained that he is dealing with bad bouts of depersonalization, which are affecting him greatly. Despite this setback, he remains optimistic and is focused on getting better. Yang’s fans and supporters are wishing him well during this time.
Depersonalization disorder, as explained by the Mayo Clinic, is a condition where individuals persistently feel like they are observing themselves from outside of their bodies or have a sense that things around them are not real. It can often feel like living in a dream and is more common in individuals who have experienced trauma. Yang’s openness about his mental health struggles is commendable, especially given his past experiences. He has shared that he went through gay conversion therapy as a teenager and faced significant misunderstandings and dangerous situations as a result of his sexuality. Despite these challenges, Yang continues to inspire others with his resilience and bravery. (Read more Saturday Night Live stories.)
