By Ron Lim

Maxene Magalona continues to open up about her past on her Instagram account.

On one of her latest posts, Maxene shared a photo that included her and a number of her celebrity friends, such as Solenn Heussaff, Bianca King, and Michelle Madrigal.

In the caption to the photo, Maxene shared that the photo brought back a lot of memories, “good ones, some bad ones and definitely lots of embarrassing ones.”

She then went on to open up about how her partying days as a young person was her way of coping with the mental health problems she was suffering at the time -- Complex Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, which she now deals with through meditation.

Despite her partying ways being fueled by her mental health problems, Maxene shared that she has no regrets, explaining that she “shared some of the best times and craziest memories with some of the best people.”

Instead, Maxene says posting the picture was her way of honoring and forgiving her old self, as well as affirming that she would always be proud of who she was.

Bianca's celebrity friends were quick to reassure and commend her in the comments, with Bianca King in particular writing that she loved Maxene and all her phases and that everything that they went through “was supposed to happen.”

Maxene isn't the only celebrity that has been open about her mental health issues. Check them out in the gallery below.
