Yesterday was World Mental Health Day and that’s exactly what Selena Gomez is focusing on right now.
According to multiple reports, the star is receiving treatment. But the “what for” ranges from anxiety, to an “emotional breakdown,” to an “undisclosed medical condition,” to specifically “dialectical behavior therapy (DBT).”
The important thing is not what she’s seeking help for — but the fact that she’s getting the treatment she needs. This comes as Gomez just recently told her loyal following she’s taking a “step back” from social media.
Update: taking a social media break. Again. As much as I am grateful for the voice that social media gives each of us, I am equally grateful to be able to step back and live my life present to the moment I have been given. Kindness and encouragement only for a bit! Just remember- negative comments can hurt anybody’s feelings. Obvi.
A source close to Gomez revealed to CNN, “Selena is receiving treatment and has the full support of her friends and family. She was recently hospitalized after complications from her kidney transplant, and she’s committed to focusing on her health.”
Remember: it’s ok to not be ok.
