Content warning: This story discusses eating disorders. Brittany Snow made a life-changing career decision. After breaking into the entertainment industry as a teenager in the early aughts, the Pitch Perfect alum knew that taking a break from work to focus on her mental health—which included struggles with an eating disorder and self harm—saved her in the long-run. “My life depended on it,” Brittany told Self magazine in an article published Nov. 6. “I mean, there was no way that I would still be here—and I’m trying not to be hyperbolic.” After a year of working through outpatient treatment for her anorexia and self-harm, the 39-year-old returned to work with her role in 2012’s Pitch Perfect, which she credits for bringing happiness back into her life. “I was so grateful, staying after hours,” the Hunting Wives star said. “Everybody was complaining about the long shoots and I was like,’ This is amazing.’ I just felt so grateful to be a part of that movie because I didn’t think I was ever going to work again.” She added, “So that movie was really special to me.”
