In This Article:

We often forget that celebrities are human just like us. So, when they do open up about their mental health problems such as as anxiety and depression, they show us that it's okay to be vulnerable.


Madison Beer

The young singer recently opened up about her struggles where she suffered from depression. In a shocking reveal, Madison Beer shared that she used to self-harm. The self-harm started for the singer when her ex-boyfriend leaked her nude pictures and betrayed her trust. She was in a horrible state mentally due to that incident. But she is now not letting her ex-boyfriend get away with it this time. Madison is taking charge of her own life and choosing to be on a path of healing and self-love. That is certainly amazing to see.

Selena Gomez

The singer Selena Gomez made headlines this year for several reasons. One of which was her new album 'Rare' that both critics and fans loved. Another one was her telling the world that she is diagnosed with Bipolar disorder. In an interview with Miley Cyrus' show 'Brightminded', she told the fans the details about her mental condition. Though, now that she understood what she had, she was not scared of it anymore and tries to practice and preach self-love and acceptance.

Cara Delevingne

The model and actress Cara Delevigne is a proud member of the LGBTQ community. She's often opened up about major aspects of her life and career. She's also shared with her followers how she also suffers from depression. It started when she was a kid and she'd often compare herself to others and that led to a cycle of her thinking she was less than. But fortunately, as she grew older, she learned of ways to overcome her challenges.

Katy Perry

The new and proud mother Katy Perry has also been vocal about her mental health problems. She would often battle depression. The singer has also shared that three years ago, she would often fantasize about suicidal thoughts as well. However, Katy Perry worked her to rewire her brain and remove the negative thinking that led to her depressive episodes. Now, she's healthy, happy, and in a much better place.

Camila Cabello

The Senorita singer earned a lot of popularity for her amazing music. Her hit album 'Romance' and hit song 'Senorita' brought her much fame. But Camila Cabello has shared that she struggles with anxiety and OCD (obsessive compulsive disorder). The singer has shared that she did not let the mental conditions take control of her and instead she fought back and took charge of her own life. She tells her fans to never be afraid of what they want to become and that they can should never give up fighting.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
