Evangeline Lilly's Injury Spurs Mind-Body Discussion

Evangeline Lilly, known for her roles in 'Lost' and 'Ant-Man,' suffered significant facial injuries after fainting at the beach and falling onto a boulder. She posted graphic photos of her injuries on social media and explained that hospital staff prioritized investigating the cause of her blackout over treating her wounds. Lilly has experienced similar fainting episodes since childhood, with hypoglycemia and epilepsy ruled out as causes through medical testing. She now attributes these spells to emotional or spiritual exhaustion, describing them as her 'soul leaving the building' due to overwhelming stress. After announcing her retirement from Hollywood last year, Lilly received an outpouring of support from fans and remains in good spirits. Her openness has prompted broader conversations about undiagnosed medical conditions and the mind-body connection.
