However, despite her unique experience with anxious feelings, Lorenze admitted that she did understand where much of her anxiety was stemming from, saying: "I was sort of like, 'Yeah, well, no s--- I have anxiety. I've been living my life in the public eye since I was 20. I've grown up on the internet. I have so many responsibilities. I have people picking apart my life. I have people making up s--- about me, but I also have people so many more people who love and support me, but are also holding me to like a very high standard."As a result, the content creator said that she often found that she had "undermined my own anxiety because of the circumstance that I'm in" and that she hadn't "taken it as seriously."She even opened up about experiencing social anxiety recently, something she said she hadn't experienced before in her life, as one of the factors that contributed to her decision to begin taking medication.
"With that being said, I am actually really glad that I decided to go on medication now," she added."I feel like I really had to like work through those things and I really had to work through my own triggers," she said. "I feel like for that, I'm a better person. I can really do a pretty good job at self-regulating my emotions."Of her anxiety medication, the lifestyle brand founder said that she has been "really, really, really loving it.""I feel like it's actually made a huge change," she said, before going on to say that she felt "invincible."Lorenze also said that taking the medication in conjunction with getting off of her birth control, prioritizing getting good sleep and working out had been the combination that worked for her.

Lorenze has been open in the past about the toll that her highly public life as a content creator and lifestyle brand founder with two million followers across her Instagram and TikTok pages has taken on her. Speaking with PEOPLE in November 2024, Lorenze reflected on her content, which she called a "highlight reel," and how she felt it didn't necessarily depict her "actual life.""The world is not just aesthetics. We're complicated people with real lives and real problems — and I think the hyper aesthetics on Instagram due to influencers can be harmful," Lorenze said at the time. "I just want people to view it as a source of inspiration, but not a Bible."
"I think there is something non-human about just... constantly talking about yourself, constantly you, you, you all the time," Lorenze said.
