As per reports, Selena Gomez has revealed the 'scariest' moment of her life after she entered a treatment centre for anxiety and depression about a year ago. She spoke about how fighting anxiety and depression was a challenging period of her life while she was honoured with the 2019 McLean award at the Hospital's annual dinner earlier this month.
Selena reveals it all
Reportedly, she said that she thinks that people are better when they tell the truth so this was her truth. She said that in the previous year she suffered mentally and emotionally. She added that she was not able to stay 'all kept up and together' and she felt like all of her pain and anxiety washed over her all at the same time which was one of the scariest moments of her life. She further revealed that she required support and doctors were able to give her a clear diagnosis and that was the moment when she got that information and actually felt equal parts of terrified and relieved. She also said that she was obviously terrified due to the cover being lifted but also relieved because she had knowledge of why she had suffered for so many years with depression and anxiety.
Selena: Looked for professional help
According to reports, Gomez said that she had explored the option of professional help and during her journey. She said that she got educated and has learned a lot. Even as she continues to focus on her health away from the spotlight and gave an update to her fans as to how she is holding up on that particular day.
"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," she shared while accepting her award. "So I'm very happy about that."
Selena also wants to help others and said that she knows that she has been given experiences and people and opportunities that have made her life exceptionally beautiful and sweet even though she struggles with her own thoughts and feelings at times but this does not make her faulty.
