"Lovelace" actress Amanda Seyfried has revealed that she suffered from crippling anxiety and panic attacks, but gradually learnt to overcome her fears.
The 27-year-old star said she focused on the positive aspects of her life in order to relax her anxious mind, reported Contactmusic.
"I like challenges. I've suffered from anxiety and panic attacks for many years and you learn to fight your fears by facing up to them," Seyfried said.
"I still fight against anxiety. I know how to deal with and over time it's not going to be an issue for me. I just try to relax and have fun and not let myself get wrapped up in unimportant things," she added.
