Lizzo opened up about her mental health on Tiktok this weekend saying, “You know that part of sadness where you feel like a burden on everyone and annoying and nobody cares about you? Can we get rid of that part? It’s like, yo, I’m already sad. Could it add insult to injury that I have no one to talk to about it?”
She continued, “I don’t want to feel this way anymore. I want to feel like I do have someone to talk to, people do care about me. I have love. I’m not alone. That’s what I want to feel, but I don’t feel like that.”

Several hours later, updated her fans, sharing that she was “feeling better.”
“I had a really rough night and a very emotional morning just thinking about my relationships and life. You know how it is. It gets dark,” she explained. “I’m definitely glad I reached out in any way I could and TikTok was one of those ways. To feel received and seen and heard really, really helped me. I’m not crying anymore.”

She also assured other fans who are struggling to “just know you’re not alone.”
She also shared how she coped with her sadness, “Took a bath, talked to my therapist, talked to my medium, breathed, focused on gratitude, tricked my dopamine levels by getting excited about something that’s happening in the future, ate a cinnamon roll, hot chocolate, and now I’m in bed,” she shared. “I do feel better.”
