Last month, Megan Fox shared some pretty personal issues during a Rolling Stone interview - personal to the the tune of a past filled with self-injury and issues with self-loathing, anger, and violence - some of which she seems to have a handle on, and some of which she seems to still be dealing with.
During my thoughts on the interview (thoughts which mostly dealt with OTHER people’s thoughts), I mused on how callus we, the public, can be when it comes to the mental health issues of celebrities - people many of us assume should just be happy because of their fame and fortune. Some of you had thoughts similar to mine and some of you had differing opinions, but for the most part everyone seemed to agree that the public clings to this information in the ways we do because Megan Fox is a celebrity and because she puts herself out there and that, celebrity or not - lovable celebrity or not - such issues should be taken very seriously.
Now it seems someone else has taken an interest in Megan Fox’s mental health.
After announcing the third installment will hit theaters July 1, 2011, Transformers director Michael Bay suggested Megan Fox “consult with a doctor before getting on board.”
P.S. Megan Fox, welcome back. I promise no alien robots will harm you in any way during the production of this motion picture. Please consult your Physician when working under my direction because some side effects can occur, such as mild dizziness, intense nausea, suicidal tendencies, depression, minor chest hair growth, random internal hemorrhaging and inability to sleep. As some directors may be hazardous to your health, please consult your Doctor to determine if this is right for you. (www.michaelbay.com)
Such snark, Mr. Bay.
Granted, Bay and Fox have been “exchanging words” for quite a while - and by “exchanging words,” naturally I’m referring to Fox publicly talking junk about the Transformer movies and Bay’s directing style, and Bay, well, retaliating. Given their history, it’s probably pretty safe to say Bay’s “P.S.” to Fox was in no way related to Fox’s confessions to Rolling Stone. If anything, Bay probably thought he was just being funny.
Still. Let’s play nice this go ’round kiddies. Whadya say?

While directors might not distress stars to the point of mental break, one actress had a mental break on the set of “Scarface” and disappeared. She has never been found.
Self destructive behaviors, fear, paranoia, panic attacks, depression, and thoughts of suicide are the symptoms of Subliminal Distraction exposure. Some may have a high sensitivity for it and react strongly to exposure.
Learning how to avoid this problem is simple and usually free. VisionAndPsychosis.Net is a seven year project about SD.
My site argues that Subliminal Distraction is one outcome of high intelligence and artistic abilities explaining the apparent connection with mental illness for these high skilled personalities.
” [...] one actress had a mental break on the set of “Scarface” and disappeared. She has never been found.”
WOW. I didn’t know that. That’s so sad - and very scary.
Thanks for sharing your site, LK. If you’d be interested in writing a post for Celebrity Psychings about Subliminal Distraction exposure and your project, let me know.
