Farrah Abraham is one of those (pseudo) celebrities who people either love or hate. (We use the word “love” loosely seeing as most people merely tolerate Farrah).

10. Therapy
She’s had a lot of therapy, which has taught her not to have regrets and to stop harboring resentments. “The person who I used to be when I was growing up was very judgmental and very reactive, [but now] I’ve opened up my mind. I forgive myself. I love myself more…if not for therapy, honestly, you would be talking to a whole other woman right now,” she told Cosmopolitan.
