In 2016, Naomi Judd opened up about mental illness during an appearance on Good Morning America, saying she has been diagnosed with severe depression and anxiety.
The singer mentioned at the time that she would not leave the house for three weeks, not get out of her pyjamas and also not practice hygiene.
At the age of 3, Judd was sexually molested at the hands of a family member, which impacted her mental health for decades without treatment. But once Judd came to terms with what happened, she started therapy.
On April 30, 2022, at the age of 76, it was announced that Judd had passed on. Ashley Judd announced her death, saying she died of mental illness.
