How Selena Gomez Became the Mental Health Champion We All Needed

Published

Gomez has also let it be known that the road to feeling better can be long and full of twists and turns.

“Last year, I was suffering mentally and emotionally and I wasn’t able to stay all kept up and together,” Gomez said while accepting the McLean Award, given to those who have furthered the public’s understanding of psychiatric illness and mental health, at the Massachusetts hospital’s annual gala in September 2019. “I wasn’t able to keep a smile or to keep things looking normal. It felt like all of my pain and my anxiety washed over me all at once and it was one of the scariest moments of my life.”

“I sought support and the doctors were able to give me a clear diagnosis,” she continued. “The moment I received that information, I actually felt equal parts of terrified and relieved. Terrified, obviously, because that veil was lifted, but relieved that I had the knowledge of why I had suffered for so many years with depression and anxiety.”

Noting how grateful she was for the support system at McLean, Gomez added, “Although this does not mean that it has all gone away, I can say that after a year of a lot of intense work, that I am happier, I am healthier and I’m in control of my emotions and thoughts more than I’ve ever been.”

Pete Wentz Reflects on Struggle With Fame After Ashlee Simpson Divorce

During that hiatus, Pete was able to focus solely on raising his and Ashlee’s son Bronx, now 14.

“Here’s what it really was: At 31, we’d had all these great years as a band, and then we took time off, and I basically became Mr. Mom,” he said on The Howard Stern Show in 2015. “I had the beard, the flannel shirt. I didn’t know what my identity was. That factored in. When your identity is what you do, it’s hard when you stop doing it.”

But amid his divorce from the “Pieces of Me” singer and the band’s hiatus, Pete confessed he fell into a cycle of depression.

“I think it was a combination of all these factors at once, including being too young,” he told host Howard Stern. “And we were doing this all in the public eye, which as you know, it doesn’t help, because you have people scrutinizing everything you do.”

How Dakota Johnson Influenced Chris Martin’s Coldplay Concerts

Published

The “Yellow” singer went on to confess that although the packs are expensive “they are amazing and the things that people do to consider other people are just wonderful.”

And along with her heartwarming contribution to Coldplay concerts, it’s safe to say Dakota, 33, is Chris’ no. 1 fan. Back in November, the Madame Web actress was seen dancing at his show in Buenos Aires, Argentina, and she’s previously revealed that she tours with the band when she’s not working.

And her frequent attendance at his shows is not lost on Chris, who paid tribute to the Persuasion star during a 2021 Coldplay show in London. While introducing the song “My Universe,” Chris told the crowd, “this is about my universe, and she’s here,” as he pointed to Dakota in the stands before serenading her with the song.
