Nicole Kidman is opening up about her career as an actress, specifically how certain roles can have a negative impact on her mental health.

Kidman explained that this is a frequent problem she encounters when taking on a new role.
"Even on The Undoing it kind of happened where I just was like suddenly, I was in this place, there was sort of a disquietness to my personality where I was uneasy, and there was duress on who I was," she explained.
She had a similar experience during Big Little Lies.
It even took a toll on her physical wellbeing.
The actress explained, "I actually got really sick, and I think this is a big thing that happens to actors. I went down for a week because your immune system doesn't know the difference between acting and truth when you're doing those."
Kidman believes that this happens because her roles often follow her off set.
She explained, "I have not learned a technique to tell my brain and my body, 'Oh this is just acting.'I haven't learned how to clean that out."
It even affects her sleep!
"I go home, and I don't sleep well and I'm not well if it's that disturbing to me," she explained.
