Chrissy Teigen is ‘sick’ of being in the ‘cancel club’ after her online bullying scandal which saw her apologise for sending nasty private messages on social media.
The former model quit Twitter and walked away from her upcoming Netflix project Never Have I Ever in the wake of the furor.
She had also reached out to reality TV star Courtney Stodden over past comments she had said to her online.
Chrissy has now shared an honest and open message with her 34 million followers on Instagram, confessing she is struggling in the aftermath and ‘can’t do this silent s**t anymore’.
The TV star joked that she would love to be part of a ‘cancel club reunion’ to motivate her to leave the house.
She began: ‘Iiiii don’t really know what to say here…just feels so weird to pretend nothing happened in this online world but feel like utter s**t in real life. Going outside sucks and doesn’t feel right, being at home alone with my mind makes my depressed head race.
‘But I do know that however I’m handling this now isn’t the right answer. I feel lost and need to find my place again,I need to snap out of this, I desperately wanna communicate with you guys instead of pretending everything is okay. I’m not used to any other way!!
‘Cancel club is a fascinating thing and I have learned a whollllle lot. Only a few understand it and it’s impossible to know til you’re in it. And it’s hard to talk about it in that sense because obviously you sound whiney when you’ve clearly done something wrong. It just sucks. There is no winning. But there never is here anyhow.
‘All I know is I love you guys, I miss you guys, and I just needed an honest moment with you because I’m just…tired of being sick with myself all day.’
The mum-of-two went on: ‘I don’t even know if it’s good to say any of this because it’s gonna get brutally picked apart but I dunno. I can’t do this silent s**t anymore!
‘If you or someone you know has also been cancelled please let me know if there is a cancel club reunion because I could use some time off my couch! Thank u and goodbye I love u.’

She has been keeping a low profile in recent weeks, but previously posted a lengthy apology vowing to reach out privately to others she had hurt.
‘I won’t ask for your forgiveness, only your patience and tolerance. I ask that you allow me, as I promise to allow you, to own past mistakes and be given the opportunity to seek self improvement and change,’ Chrissy wrote.
