“I realized I care too much about other people’s opinions when I broke down and had a panic attack”
Her life philosophy was described by Katerina Lechou, who was a guest on Tuesday afternoon on the “Studio 4” show of ERT. The actress opened her heart, confessing, among other things, the relationship with her image and self-improvement.
“I was very worried about other people’s opinions, I had low self-confidence. I realized that I care too much about other people’s opinions when I broke down and had a panic attack. At 35 I had a panic attack, I was lucky to have it because that’s how I started a journey of self improvement. Now I’m 57 years old but don’t think I’ve got it sorted, it’s just softening. I think this has to do with the way we grow up”, she describes Katerina Lechos.
“Most people experience the age of 50 a little traumatically, I don’t know why, but I think that to a large extent they have worn it on us. And mathematically speaking, you are essentially in the third part of the cycle of life. You must be familiar with the fact that there is a beginning, a middle and an end. After 50, everything is quality, because he has no time to waste,” the actress points out.
“I feel better about myself. Me when I get to 65, I don’t want to be running like crazy, chasing my tail. Even if I had strength, I would like to be more relaxed. Things are wisely made by nature”, Katerina Lechou then confesses.
“For a woman there is an anxiety not to grow old, while for a man having a belly or gray hair at 50 is sexy. Sexism is something that will not be eradicated just like that but now the water has entered the gutter. I have always been moderate. Today, however, I am more careful. All my life women looked at me strangely. And for height alone, I was something of an oddity. I trained and got used to it”, says Katerina Lechou at another point of the interview.
