Uncut Gems alum Julia Fox detailed her struggles with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder in a TikTok she filmed in her bathroom.
“It was very difficult,” the Italian-born, Manhattan-raised 32-year-old admitted last Friday.
“I have bouts of great productivity where I’m on top of the world and just feel like I’m invincible. And then I have moments like a deep, deep, deep, stagnant feeling like I just can’t move.

It is Julia’s first time revealing her diagnosis with the condition in which a persistent pattern of inattention and/or hyperactivity-impulsivity interferes with functioning or development.
“I’ve never really spoken about it, but ADHD is really tough,” Fox said.
The Tommy Hilfiger catwalker “just found out” that she also suffers from OCD, where persistent/unwanted thoughts/urges/images become intrusive and cause distress or anxiety.
“I used to count the number of letters in words in my head and I always wanted them to go to 10, and when I’m not smoking weed I’m literally counting,” Julia continued.

On her OCD, Julia said, ‘I used to count the number of letters in words in my head and I always wanted them to go to 10 and when I’m not smoking weed I’m literally counting’
Fox continued, “So the weed calms the OCD, but it doesn’t help the productivity problem with ADHD. Ugh, it’s just too much!’
