Ruth Lorenzo confesses to having "said very ugly things" looking in the mirror: "Failed, ugly, fat..."

Ruth Lorenzo knew how to take advantage of the opportunity that being the representative of Spain in Eurovision 2014 gave her and has remained in the media landscape. Although after Dancing in the Rain she has not managed to have similar success in terms of numbers, it is not surprising that she feels this way with the fan base that she has earned over the last few years.

And this is not only due to her musical career, but also to her role as a presenter. The singer, who was already in charge of hosting Cover night, was one of those chosen to present the Benidorm Fest 2024 galas, garnering positive reviews. So much so, that there are many who ask for the return of the Murcian to the European festival. However, not everything has been positive in her life.

It is not the first time that Ruth Lorenzo opens up talking about her psychological problems. Still, she had never done it like this before. The singer has not hesitated to speak for Desafíos, a program where the "challenges that young people face today" have been addressed.

The Murcian woman went with a clear message: take care of the internal conversation. "How important it is to take care of yourself, to speak well to yourself. I have said super ugly things to myself looking in the mirror," she began to relate, as could be seen in a video published on social networks.

"Failed, ugly, fat, you're worthless, you're worthless..." are the things that Ruth Lorenzo told herself in one of the times when she was having the worst time psychologically. "The important thing is how we talk to each other, that is the root of all problems: your internal conversation," she added.

Among other things, he wanted to make it clear that you have to be "very aware" of how you talk about yourself. And, above all, "talk to yourself as you would talk to the person you love most in the world."

"I suffered from eating disorders from the age of 9 to 33," he also reported in Let's Learn Together 2030. Anorexia, anorexia nervosa, bulimia... are some of the things that caused him to seek to have "some type of control." ". Something that he has not hesitated to talk about on other occasions and that has served to make these types of problems a little more visible.

A story that has had 12,000 views in less than an hour and that has generated numerous messages of support. "What honesty", "What a hard and beautiful truth. Always growing" or "How great you are Ruth. What a life lesson you give us. Thank you very much", are some of the responses that this story has had.
