Selena Gomez’s anxiety and depression issues are taking such a toll on her that she’s being forced to take time off from the public spotlight. In fact, Selena Gomez herself has admitted that her panic attacks might be a side effect from her lupus, which of course could easily lead to a Selena Gomez breakdown in front of our very own eyes.
Selena Gomez has made it no secret that she’s had one of the most difficult years of her life. Not only has her lupus diagnosis effected her mental and physical health, but she’s also shown signs of a near public meltdown. Selena Gomez confessed her insecurities to her fans and cried on stage at an emotional concert in Indonesia earlier this summer.
What’s more, her Justin Bieber feud turned nasty when she left horrible comments on an Instagram account of her ex-boyfriend and his new girlfriend Sofia Richie. After suggesting that Justin Bieber remember that his fans are the reason why he still has a career, the ‘Cold Water’ singer responded by shutting down his social media account.
Selena Gomez’s out-of-character outburst at Justin Bieber has led many to believe that she still might be jealous and quite emotional seeing her one and true love in her life move on with someone else.
According to People Magazine, Selena Gomez is no longer hiding her pain as she said in a statement, “As many of you know, around a year ago I revealed that I have lupus. I’ve discovered that anxiety, panic attacks and depression can be side effects of lupus, which can present their own challenges. I want to be proactive and focus on maintaining my health and happiness and have decided that the best way forward is to take some time off.”
This means that unfortunately for Selena Gomez’s fans, she will be postponing the rest of her Revival World tour, which kicked off in Las Vegas back in May. So far, Selena Gomez’s ex Justin Bieber himself has made no comments about her health, nor has he offered any kind words of encouragement.
Of course, CDL knows that Selena Gomez’s break from the spotlight is the best thing she can do for herself and her mental health. While there’s no doubt that Justin Bieber is still in the back of Selena Gomez’s mind, a Jelena romance or reunion is definitely out of question at the moment, especially when the singer is dealing with so many side effects from lupus.
Tell us CDL readers, do you think Selena Gomez’s break from her Revival World Tour will help her recover from her panic attacks and anxiety issues? Should Selena Gomez have canceled her tour much earlier this year? Let us know what you think in our comments section below.
