Debby Ryan Opens Up About Her Secret Health Struggle and Brave Comeback!
Former Disney Channel superstar Debby Ryan is finally opening up about a deeply personal and scary chapter of her life.
Fans know her best from hit shows like Jessie and Suite Life on Deck, but behind her bright smile, the actress was fighting a silent battle. During a recent interview on the Mythical Kitchen’s Last Meals series, Debby revealed that she went through a major health scare a few years ago that completely changed her life.
The 33-year-old actress shared that she suffered a severe head trauma that left her out of the spotlight for six long months. “I was out of commission,” she explained, adding that she had to undergo intense neurological rehab to get her life back on track.
Debby, who calls herself a “migraine warrior,” admitted that the recovery process was incredibly tough. She even tried some wild, sci-fi-style fringe science treatments to help her heal. While the treatments helped her get “back online,” she confessed that some things just never went back to normal.
The Insatiable star revealed that the world often feels too loud and bright for her now. In fact, she says she can actually see and think better with her eyes closed!
Despite the terrifying ordeal, Debby remains incredibly positive. She credits her amazing support system, including her husband, Twenty One Pilots drummer Josh Dun, for helping her through the darkest days. They reminded her of who she was and loved her through the massive changes.
It is so inspiring to see Debby Ryan back and stronger than ever!
