However, her rise to fame hasn’t been the easiest road to navigate.
Rapp has been open about the struggles with her sexuality and coming out despite fear of being judged.
“The first year doing ‘College Girls’ was terrible.
“It sucked so bad, because at the time, I was in a heteronormative relationship.
I don’t think I can be doing this.'
I was like, ‘Maybe I’m just trying too hard.’
And then I would come home and I would psych myself out, literally.”
“It’s a lifelong thing,” she said.
“There are battles with addiction and whatever everywhere.
They worry like hell, but they’re chilling, I guess.”
But for me, that whole year of my life was inherent resilience.”
Rapp admitted that she still doesn’t know exactly how to feel about the whole situation.
Rapp spoke with The Guardian about how the diagnosis helped her immensely.
I used to beat myself up asking like: ‘Why can’t I do this?’
and, as a kid, hearing people say: ‘Suck it up and stop.'"
I know I have to be responsible, but I also have to be myself."
