Justin Bieber has again opened up his heart to his fans, posting a very personal message on Instagram regarding the turmoil he’s been enduring in his life. On Sunday, March 16, the 31-year-old singer opened up in an emotional all-caps post, sharing his sense of feeling “drowning” in his emotions. Bieber recognized his inner struggles and the need to deal with hate within oneself.
Recognizing Hate and Suffering
In the blog, Bieber reminisced about his childhood, stating that he was always taught not to hate. Unfortunately, this created a block for him to express his feelings of hate, and thus, he was afraid to express what he felt. “I think we can only move past hate by first recognizing it’s there,” he explained, understanding that personal hurts usually cause resentment and anger.
Bieber’s unfiltered candor regarding his battles with hate, hurt, and self-esteem gives insight into the scrutiny that accompanies stardom. The singer has been candid about his mental illness and emotional struggle for years, and this latest update is yet another instance of him attempting to understand his emotions and navigate forward.
Struggles with Self-Worth
This is not the first time Bieber has been open with his fans. Earlier this week, he shared an emotional Instagram Story on March 13, where he opened up about his struggle with impostor syndrome. “People told me my whole life, ‘Wow, Justin, you deserve that,’ and I personally have always felt unworthy,” he confessed. His openness about feeling “unequipped and unqualified” further highlights the gravity of his inner turmoil.
Health Speculation
There have also been recurring concerns regarding Bieber’s health, especially following a change in his behavior and appearance. In response to gossip, one of the singers and his wife Hailey Baldwin Bieber labelled the rumors as “false” and “harmful” after shutting down the claims. And through it all, Bieber still finds comfort in his faith and family.
