Blair, who publicly revealed a diagnosis with multiple sclerosis in 2018, says she lived for years in 'terror' of her medical issues being discovered
.) Blair talks about living in fear that her various health issues might become public knowledge in Hollywood, damaging her ability to get work. Meanwhile, she says, “I was worried since the beginning of time that a glaring fault would remove me from the workforce. And usually it was my incoordination or getting stuck, too weak or sick, in my trailer – or any time, really. The vomiting or body issues were terrifying, [and the] baldness or rashes.
My self-hatred was extreme. I could not manage well and I couldn’t even try to find work… It was a running joke. How far was the audition? How many naps would I fit in on the side of the road before and after? [When I quit acting] I spent my days in bed, crying, sometimes binge drinking, sometimes reading and sleeping, seeing doctors and healers… I gave up almost until the diagnosis. I was always terrified I would be deemed incapable. Or mentally unsound.
