On the Hulu reality TV series' newest episode, the 27-year-old supermodel got real about how her battle with anxiety has severely affected her.

"I think I was about like, eight, from what I remember," Kendall recalled during her confession about when she first dealt with anxious thoughts.

"I thought there was like, something physically wrong with me. Like, I made my mom take me to a heart doctor and a lung doctor and a brain doctor and all these people because I thought something was wrong with me."
