Justin Bieber recently opened up about his mental health struggles in his latest YouTube Originals documentary Justin Bieber: Next Chapter.
“There were times where I was really, really suicidal. Like, man is this pain ever going to go away? It was so consistent, the pain was so consistent.
“I was just suffering, right? So, I’m just like, man, I would rather not feel this than feel this,” Bieber said in the documentary, which released on Friday.
“I had no idea that this life would take me by storm. I had no idea that I would just get sucked up by all of this stuff,” he added.
Bieber also urged his fans to seek help if they ever feel “lonely”.
“I just would encourage people, like, ‘Hey, if you’re feeling lonely, talk about it. Say it out loud.’ There’s a freedom in that. I could have avoided a lot of pain.”
After sharing the documentary, Bieber also gave his fans tiny update about his mental health.
“The last 8 months have been a time for growth. Happy and healthy,” he captioned.
