Keira Knightley has been part of the entertainment industry since the age of six and has had her share of highs and lows.
In a new episode of The Hollywood Reporter's "Chatter Awards" podcast, the 33-year-old British actress is confident about her rapid rise to stardom and the mental depression that followed.
The release of the independent film "Bend It Like Beckham" in 2002 led Knightley to the "Pirates of the Caribbean" franchise and to the Roman comedy "Love, Actually".
"This movie series was completely crazy," Knightley recalls, noting however that most critics focused on his appearance. "It's amazing to look at it from the outside – you say," Whoa, it's been hit, impact after impact! "But from the inside, all you hear is the criticism, actually, to know my job, I knew something was working sometimes, but I did not know how to capture it."

Having a hard time enjoying her newfound success and fame, she worked on her art and was surprised to receive an Oscar nomination for her role in "Pride & Prejudice". Meanwhile, Knightley was still fighting against his celebrity.
"It was always very confusing, because all these nominations are nominative, but in the press, when I go to an interview, people still say," Everybody thinks you'll sh * t, "or focus on your appearance or what's wrong with you, "she explains." And again, I was 19 years old [actually 20 when nominated] – you can only hear negative things. "
"I had a mental breakdown at age 22, so I took a sabbatical year and I was diagnosed with post-traumatic stress disorder because of all that," reveals Knightley. "I went deep into therapy and all that, and she [the therapist] "It's amazing, it's great. Normally I come here and I have people who think that people are talking about them and who think they are being followed, but that is not the case. You are the first person who does it! & # 39; "

She finally started to feel a lot better and stop listening to criticisms and negative comments. She was also much more confident in her role.
"I think the main thing for which I am very proud of myself," she said, "is to have learned my trade, I did it very publicly, but I learned my job and, technically, everything you need from me, I want to get better and I'm not saying there is no way to go – I want to continue to learn and surpass myself – but I'm in a good place where I'm pretty confident for what I'm doing, I can do.
