Kerry Washington spoke out about dealing with eating disorders and her current relationship with food, ahead of the release of her memoir.

"I'd eat anything and everything, sometimes until I passed out," she continued."But then, because I had this personality that was driven toward perfectionism, I would tell people I was at the library, but instead go to the gym and exercise for hours and hours and hours. Keeping my behavior a secret was painful and isolating. There was a lot of guilt and a lot of shame.

""I mean, I wouldn't say that I'd never act out with food," she told Roberts in her recent interview."It's just very different now. It's not to the extreme. There's no suicidal ideation. That is not where I am anymore."If you or someone you know needs help, please contact the National Suicide Prevention hotline at 988, or reach out to the Crisis Text Line by texting ‘Home’ to 741741, anytime.
