Justin Bieber, who got to popularity with his work at the tender age of 13, a few times back, took it to his social media to admit how fame got into him, and he suffered from depression and also was a heavy drug addict. He also revealed how he became the most ‘hated’ person in the world, which is because of bad decisions back in his 20s. The Baby singer also admitted that he was turning abusive towards his relationship.
“I think that there were times where I was really, really suicidal, like really like ‘Man, is this pain ever gonna go away?’ It was so consistent, the pain was so consistent. I was just suffering, so I (was) just like, ‘Man, I would rather not feel this than feel this,'” he could be quoted from the documentary titled, “Justin Bieber: Next Chapter,” he further said, “I just had no idea what was to come. 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,” as quoted by today.com.
In the post shared on his social media, he wrote, “It’s hard to get out of bed in the morning with the right attitude when you are overwhelmed with your life your past, job, responsibilities, emotions, your family finances, your relationships. When it feels like there’s trouble after trouble after trouble. You start foreseeing the day through lenses of ’’dread” and anticipate another bad day. A cycle of feeling disappointment after disappointment. Sometimes it can even gel to the point where you don’t even want to live anymore. Where you feel like it’s never going to change.”
He added further, ” I can fully sympathize with you. I could not change my mindset. I am fortunate to have people I’m living with that continue to encourage me to keep going. You see I have a lot of money, clothes cars, accolades, achievements, awards and I was still unfulfilled. Have u noticed the statistics of child stars and the outcome of their life? There is an insane pressure and responsibility put on a child whose brain, emotions, frontal lobes (decision making) aren’t developed yet. No rationality, defiant, rebellious, things all of us have to go through. But when you add the pressure of stardom it does something to you that is quite unexplainable. You see I didn’t grow up in a stable home, my parents were 18 separated with no money still young and rebellious as well. As my talent progressed and I became ultra-successful it happened within a strand of Two years. My whole world was flipped on its head. I went from a 13-year-old boy from a small town to being praised left and right by the world with millions saying how much they loved me and how great I was. I don’t know about you but humility comes with age. You hear these things enough as a young boy and you actually start believing it, Rationality comes with age and so does your decision-making process ( one of the reasons you can’t drink until you’re 21).. everyone did everything for me so I never even learned the fundamentals of responsibility.
He continued, further, “I started doing pretty heavy drugs at 19 and abused all of my relationships. I Became resentful, disrespectful to women, and angry. I became distant from everyone who loved me, and I was hiding behind, a shell of a person that I had become. I felt like I could never turn it around. It’s taken me years to bounce back from all of these terrible decisions, fix broken relationships, and change relationship habits. Luckily god blessed me with extraordinary people who love me for me. Now I am navigating the best season of my life ”MARRIAGE” !! Which is an amazing crazy new responsibility. You learn patience, trust, commitment, kindness, humility and all of the things it looks like to be a good man. All this to say even when The odds are against you keep fighting. Jesus loves you… BE KIND TODAY> BE BOLD TODAY AND LOVE PEOPLE TODAY NOT BY YOUR STANDARDS BUT BY GODS PERFECT UNFAILING LOVE”
