Justin Bieber's Open Cry for Emotional Support: "I'm Broken"
Justin Bieber describes himself as "damaged" or "heart-broken."
In a series of honest and revelatory posts on Instagram, Justin Bieber has finally broken the silence surrounding persistent rumors about his mental health, painting a picture of emotional chaos.
Justin Bieber's well-being has been a topic of discussion among fans and the media for quite some time now. After several distressing encounters with the paparazzi and cryptic videos on social media, fans have been voicing their concerns. Moreover, whispers of marital strife between Bieber and his wife, Hailey Bieber, have only added to the mystery. Now, Bieber has decided to speak up, unveiling a shattered and raw facade in his heartfelt plea.
In a barrage of posts within a few hours, the 31-year-old singer shares candidly, "I know I'm broken. I know I have anger issues." Bieber openly confides that he's been advised to seek help countless times, but the constant suggestions leave him infuriated.
In another post, he shares a told-too-often story, expressing his frustration towards someone who, though they claim concern, only suffocates him with their questions. "Stop asking me if I'm okay... Your concern doesn't come off as caring. It's just suffocating, weirdo," he writes, before declaring their friendship over and calling out this person as a "pussy."
Photos and videos filling Bieber's feed show intimate moments with Hailey and their infant son, Jack Blues, born in August 2024. Father's Day celebration with gifts such as designer bags and watches were also captured, with Bieber wishing himself a "Happy Father's Day." Other posts depict him with a joint in hand, filming smoke-filled water pipes, and selfies with blurry close-ups of his face.
Exhausted by Self, Driven by Faith
Back in March, Bieber revealed his self-doubt in an Instagram story. "People have been telling me my whole life: 'Wow, Justin, you deserve this' and I've always felt unworthy, like an imposter," he wrote. Bieber admitted that despite his tireless efforts to be like others, his quest for personal growth feels ever more exhausting. "Honestly, I'm tired of thinking about myself lately. Don't you feel that way too?" he asks his followers, seeking empathy and understanding.
Lately, Jesus has been the one force motivating Bieber to "align his life with others"[1]. Hailey has not yet publicly commented on her husband's latest posts.
