During a visit to Red Table Talk, Constance Wu said that after backlash from her controversial tweets in 2019, she felt like she "deserved to suffer.

However, she noted that despite doing her job for the love of performance, it's easy to get caught up in "the noise." She noted that writing, specifically her new compilation of personal essays, has been the art form that has provided her the most healing. In July of 2022, Wu returned back to social media after a three-year hiatus as her new Prime Video series, "The Terminal List," was released. “I needed a wound to prove it, to prove that I hurt as bad as everyone said I deserved to hurt,” Wu wrote.

[publicly unhappy with the decision](https://tvline.com/2019/05/10/constance-wu-twitter-fresh-off-the-boat-renewed-controversy/); when a fan tweeted that the pickup was “great news,” Wu replied, “No it’s not.” At the time, Wu also tweeted, “F—king hell” and “So upset right now that I’m literally crying. “I feel like I was never able to really be myself on set, because I’d see my abuser being buddy-buddy with everybody else, knowing what he had done to me,” she shared.
