AceShowbiz - Dakota Johnson has insisted she won't make her depression "anyone else's problem" after admitting to struggling with her mental health since she was a teenager.

In a candid interview with Marie Claire, "The Peanut Butter Falcon" star opened up on battling depression, "since she was 15 or 14," and confessed she "has to do a lot of work to purge thoughts and emotions."

"My brain moves at a million miles per minute," Dakota explained. With the help of professionals, I was like, 'Oh, this (therapy) is a thing I can fall into.' "

"But I've learned to find it beautiful because I feel the world," she shared. "I guess I have a lot of complexities, but they don't pour out of me. I don't make it anyone else's problem."

The "Fifty Shades Freed" star went on to reflect that working through her issues has made her more confident, and she's reached a point in her career where she's more prepared to put herself forward and have a say on decisions on projects she's working on.

"For a long time, I'd do a movie and have no say," she recalled. "I could go into something, and it'll be one thing, and then it comes out as a totally different thing. As an artist, you're like, 'What the f**k?' "

"I definitely want to have my craft, my artistry, and my ideas respected and tossed around. I want to be part of the process," she added, before laughing, "I also have really specific taste."
