Millie Bobby Brown has spoken about the impact the end of Stranger Things had on her as she revealed she fell into a 'slight depression'.
The actress, 22, also revealed how she apologised to her co-stars after the series ended and attempted to 'mend' any tension that had existed.
Millie filmed five series of the Netflix epic alongside David Harbour, Finn Wolfhard, Gaten Matarazzo, Noah Schnapp, Caleb McLaughlin and Winona Ryder.
Speaking on Josh Horowitz's podcast, Happy Sad Confused, Millie sad that wrapping the show took its toll on her as she explained: 'It was very hard for me'.
She said: 'I would not have expected that coming off of the show. I'm a very happy-go-lucky person.'
Millie said she worried that she wouldn't be friends with her co-stars after they stopped filming and told them 'I'm sorry if I ever upset you'.

The British star explained: 'I was like, "We're still friends, right? Like, you're not gonna stop talking to me anymore".
'I was like, "I'm sorry if I ever upset you," and was just trying to mend anything. "It's been 10 years, and I really want to be friends. You're my sibling".
'And then I was on the beach, it was beautiful, and I just sat there crying,' she continued. 'It was a very hard time for me.'
Millie played Eleven on the show from 2015 to 2025 for five seasons and it clearly had a lasting effect on her.
She said: 'And no one will ever understand it. I started the show when I was 10, and this character was me, and these people were in my life more than my own family.'
'I saw these people more than going home and eating dinner with my family. Saying goodbye to that after 10 years was a very, very emotional thing, and I'm going to miss Eleven more than anything.'
The Daily Mail published a report alleging that Millie filed a 'harassment and bullying' complaint against her Stranger Things co-star David prior to filming the show's final season.
David admittion to tension in an interview with Variety earlier this month, but said that they 'adore each other and always have',
He compared the drama to families who 'occasionally get in arguments, disagreements' but always 'come back together.'
He said that other people got 'involved' in the situation but, once he and Milly 'cleared everybody out of the way and talked to each other,' they were 'fine.'
