Does Cara Delevingne have a learning disability?
The school was a massive challenge for Cara because of her learning disabilities. “I have very bad learning disabilities,” she explained. “If you look at my writing, it’s not good at all.”
All of this was incredibly isolating and alienating to the point where Cara fell into a very dark place. “I didn’t want to live anymore. I thought that I was completely alone,” she told the moderator and audience. “I wanted the world to swallow me up, and nothing seemed better than death.”
Eventually, the situation escalated out of control, and she had to be taken out of school. She was put on medication, then left school at 17 to begin her modeling career. “[Modeling] wasn’t nice,” she continued.
“You’re constantly told that you’re not pretty enough, and not tall enough, and not skinny enough and people are better. When you’re young you think that means, ‘I’m not good enough as a person.’ That means, ‘I’m not living up to who I should be.’”
