When I read that Courtney Stodden said she was pregnant, I didn’t cover it because I thought that’s just what people like Courtney Stodden say. Is that bad? Turns out she is pregnant, and is suffering from actual depression or prenatal depression or she Googled both and wanted to see if she could combine them. Let’s just say “depression”.

“I suffer from depression,” the expectant reality star tells Us Weekly. And her symptoms have worsened since her pregnancy began. “My depression affects my appetite, sleeping patterns and overall perspective on life,” Stodden tell Us. “At times, I have severe insomnia and other times I find myself sleeping too much. I have feelings of hopelessness but experience many moments of absolute euphoria.”

I feel like if I was pregnant and suffered from depression, I wouldn’t pose for a bathroom pic then fight off my hopelessness to add five hashtags. But I guess we all handle things differently. I wouldn’t do it because those pictures would probably be worth some money since I’d be a pregnant dude. I’m trying to get paid.
