American actress Lena Dunham recently shared a workout selfie in her sports bra on Instagram and discussed about the importance of exercise for helping with anxiety.
The Golden Globe Award winning actress donned a green printed spandex pants and a yellow sports bra and captioned the pic as, "To those struggling with anxiety, OCD, depression: I know it's mad annoying when people tell you to exercise, and it took me about 16 medicated years to listen. I'm glad I did", Us Magazine reported.
The 28-year-old actress said that she promised herself she would not let exercise be the first thing to go by the wayside when she will get busy with 'Girls' Season 5.
Dunham added that it had helped with her anxiety in ways she never dreamed possible.
Dunham, who looked noticeably slimmer in the new shot, has been working out with celebrity trainer Tracy Anderson, who has worked with top stars like Jennifer Lopez and Gwyneth Paltrow.
