Vietnamese actress Việt Trinh mental health advocacy

Overview

In late July 2026, veteran actress Việt Trinh posted a personal note expressing a wish for a simple, peaceful daily routine after a long struggle with severe depression. She described how regular exercise, a balanced diet, early sleep, time in nature and medication helped her regain energy and a smile, and she reflected on retiring from the film industry in 2022 to enjoy a quieter life.

A week later, in early August 2026, Trinh released a video in which she spoke more openly about her experience with depression, acknowledging that she once dismissed the condition before it affected her personally. She urged families to seek professional help for loved ones showing signs of mental distress and called for empathy rather than blame, positioning her story as a broader effort to raise awareness and reduce stigma around mental health in Vietnam.
