Headline: UNCAPTIONED: Bunnie XO recalls 'darkest time' while using GLP-1

Caption: Bunnie XO recalls 'darkest time' while using GLP-1. The wife of country star Jelly Roll started the medication in December last year and found it had immediate negative effects on her emotional well-being. The 46-year-old told People Magazine, “Honestly, I just went through a bout of suicidal ideation from using a GLP-1, which, I really think people need to talk more about this,” "I just told them, I said, 'I haven't had suicidal ideation like this since 2020.' That's how bad it was.” Bunnie, whose real name is Alyssa DeFord, elaborated on her bout of depression. ”That was one of the darkest times of my life and it was scary," she said, adding the experience had come as a shock compared to her previously more solid mental health. ”I prided myself on the fact that I only had anxiety. I never had depression. So when you get slammed with suicidal ideation and visions and just, oh, it was horrific.” Bunnie, whose memoir Stripped Down: Unfiltered and Unapologetic is slated for release in February, also reflected on why she found depression much more worrying than anxiety. ”You want to have anxiety because you want to be scared to die. You don't want to have depression because you literally don't care if you want to die. So yeah, it was really dark.”.
