Selena Gomez Talks Mental Health Journey in New Interview.
Speaking with 'WSJ. Magazine,' Gomez says the right therapy and medication gave her a "breakthrough.".
I had low self-esteem, and that’s something I work on continuously. But I feel so empowered because I’ve gained so much knowledge about what was going on mentally. My highs were really high, and my lows would take me out for weeks at
a time, Selena Gomez, to 'WSJ. Magazine'.
The 27-year-old explains that she has gained
clarity after working with therapists
and going to treatment facilities.
I found out I do suffer from mental health issues. And, honestly, that was such a relief. I realized that there was a way to get help and to find people that you trust. I got on the right medication, and my life has been completely changed, Selena Gomez, to 'WSJ. Magazine'.
Gomez says her upcoming
album, 'Rare,' is a callback
to her younger days.
She adds that her good friend,
Taylor Swift, would agree. .
I remember Taylor [Swift] said when I played her some of the new songs, ‘I feel like I’m seeing who you were before this.' That makes me happy. I like feeling like that girl again, Selena Gomez, to 'WSJ. Magazine'
