A new documentary about Selena Gomez's mental health comes out tomorrow.
In the new interview, Gomez said her mental health took a turn for the worst during her early twenties: “It started to get really dark…I started to feel like I was not in control of what I was feeling, whether that was really great or really bad.” She said periods of highs and lows would last for months on end, and that, at times, she couldn’t sleep for days., then it would go into isolation. Then it just was me not being able to move from my bed. I didn’t want anyone to talk to me.
After she left the treatment facility, a psychiatrist took her off all but two of the medications she was taking. “He really guided me,” Gomez said. “But I had to detox, essentially, from the medications I was on.” Aside from getting used to a new medication routine, Gomez had to essentially reprogram her mind, she said. “I had to learn how to remember certain words,” she explained. “I would forget where I was when we were talking. It took a lot of hard work for me to accept that I was bipolar, but learn how to deal with it because it wasn’t going away.
