Recently, netizens have been focusing on the figure of Danella Ilene, one of the participants in the Indonesian Next Top Model event. Not because of the sensation or her achievements in the talent search event, but because of her story of experiencing depression. She revealed that she had experienced it before entering the modeling world in Indonesia.

Expressing depression publicly is still seen as a trivial matter, especially in Indonesia. It even becomes a subject of jokes. However, Ilene is different. She seems very strong in expressing her bitter experience, even on a big stage of a talent search event.

Depression does not discriminate against anyone, regardless of their background, including Ilene. It is rare to find someone who is strong and able to share their experience with the public. I really admire Ilene for being brave enough to share her story!
