The Kardashian star and self-proclaimed “control freak” opens up about the years when she had “no idea” what was weighing on her and pleads for “a little compassion.”
Kendall Jenner is honest about how much her anxiety has affected her conscience.
The 27-year-old model speaks anxiously about her story and reveals she couldn’t put her finger on the feeling she would feel in her chest until much later in life in PEOPLE’s exclusive clip from the episode from Thursday from The Kardashians.
I think I was about eight years old, from what I remember,” she told the cameras. But I thought there was something physically wrong with me. For example, I made my mother take me to a cardiologist, a pulmonologist, a neurologist and all these people because I thought something was wrong with me.

Noting that people didn’t really talk about anxiety like they do now, Jenner said: I never knew that was what it was until later in life thinking, Oh, that’s what it was all this time. And I had no idea.
The scene cuts to Jenner having a heart-to-heart about her anxiety with Scott Disick, who adds that people can often be quick to judge based on her looks, career and financial situation.
Everyone has a problem, he says, while Jenner adds: Yes, I think that’s a common misconception. It’s like we’re all human and we all feel.
I’ve definitely struggled with a little guilt, even while experiencing anxiety or feeling bad, because I have many blessings and I’m a really lucky person. But we all have shit to some extent, she says in a confessional interview. So I think a little more compassion would be nice.

This isn’t the first time Jenner has opened up about her anxiety. During a May 2021 conversation with psychologist Dr. Ramani Durvasula for Vogue’s “Open Minded” series, Jenner recalled her early experiences with the disorder.
“I remember being very young, I would say 8, 9, 10 years old, having shortness of breath and going to my mother to tell her that,” she remembers.

The 818 founder noted that as she became more famous, her mental health took a toll.
“I think being overworked and being in the situation I’m in right now is kind of what made it spiral out of control,” she said. “I had times where I felt like I needed to be rushed to the hospital because I thought my heart was failing, I couldn’t breathe and I had I need someone to help me. Sometimes I think I’m dying.”
“I will never sit here and say I’m unlucky. I know I live a very privileged and amazing lifestyle. I’m a very lucky girl,” she said before noting: ” I’m still a human being at the end of the day.”
