'I felt awful about what I'd said, and when a few DMs from a fellow Asian actress told me I'd become a blight on the Asian American community, I started feeling like I didn't even deserve to live anymore,' actress Constance Wu said in part of a statement.

In her Thursday post, Wu noted she was hesitant to return to social media"because I almost lost my life from it."

"Looking back, it's surreal that a few DMs convinced me to end my own life, but that's what happened. Luckily, a friend found me and rushed me to the ER."
