“Every day I feel at least 10 of these attributes without fail … since I was probably 14, but more aggressively when I turned 18,” the model wrote. Bella checked off symptoms like headaches, brain fog, insomnia, sensitivity to light and noise, anxiety, confusion, nausea, disordered eating, joint pain, and weight gain and loss.

In case you didn't know, Bella’s brother Anwar Hadid--who is currently dating British singer Dua Lipa--also has this disease. The news of Bella and Anwar having Lyme disease was first revealed in 2015 by their mother Yolanda Hadid.
