24-year-old pop star Justin Bieber is seeking treatment for depression. Its said that Justin is feeling down and tired and has been struggling a bit. He is said to be emotional and struggles a lot with the idea of fame; being followed, having his every move stalked by fans, cameras insets him off and he often feels like everyone is out to get him.
Justin is said to have felt a lot of pressure to succeed from his parents, father Jeremy Bieber and mother Pattie Mallette. His parents wanted this for him probably even more than he did. He has a very complicated relationship with them. His father is said to have pushed him really hard and expected a lot out of him.
In an interview, Bieber opened up about how becoming so famous at such a young age affected his mental health; ”I started really feeling myself too much. ‘People love me, I’m the s—,’ that’s honestly what I thought. I got very arrogant and cocky. I was wearing sunglasses inside. He has admitted that Drugs and a legitimate problem with sex came with making millions at 20 years old; ”I found myself doing things that I was so ashamed of, being super-promiscuous and stuff, and I think I used Xanax because I was so ashamed.”
Justin admits that his huge stardom had made it difficult for him to trust people, even wife Hailey, who he has known for many years; ”I’ve struggled with the feeling that people are using me or aren’t really there for me, and that writers are looking to get something out of me and then use it against me.”
He says growing up in the public eye has also affected him; ”I didn’t really have a chance to find who I was apart from what I did. I just needed some time to evaluate myself: who I am, what I want out of my life, my relationships, who I want to be – stuff that when you’re so immersed in the music business you kind of lose sight of.”
