Bieber’s Battle With Depression

Somehow, the internet is surprised that after all the grief they’ve given pop star Justin Bieber, he’s been diagnosed with depression. It’s almost as though being brutally insulted on every social media platform that exists and swarmed by the paparazzi every time one leaves the house has a devastating effect on one’s self esteem.

Bieber described feeling “terrifyingly alone” while he’s on tour, without anybody to really speak to.

He also claims that the world gave him unrealistic and unfair standards to meet that other normal teenagers would too struggle to meet. And it’s true; every little error the Canadian has made has been scrutinised to the point where he “struggles to get out of bed on a morning”.

Comparing himself to Amy Winehouse, Bieber pointed out the similarities in the brutality they both received from people.

Perhaps his depression is the reason he has been acting up in the last few years but one thing is for certain, this should act as a message to us all to think before we tweet, post a status or poke fun at anybody.
