Wow well the headlines are definitely intense but i just wanted to address my interview with US Magazine. I try to be a very honest person because being honest is an important virtue. And from the time i was 16-to recently I’ve battled a lot of demons including- bad self-esteem, drugs, bad body image (bulimia), and depression. In my story nothing happened to me when i was young for me to find so many struggles growing up- unfortunately i was just my own worst enemy and never loved myself. I was in desperate and delicate situations and needed professional help-which I got. For any of my friends and fans who are reading this or who have read the article and can relate to any of the problems I’ve battled- I want you to know you can win the fight! Please do not give up on life… Today i live by the saying “this too shall pass.” Every bad feeling and problem you go through will pass-i promise but when its something serious like depression or an eating disorder-you need to get professional help and talk to someone you trust-because they are deadly diseases. I did not get better overnight its taken years… you need to work at it to beat it! So talk to someone-i urge everyone to be honest with a friend or mentor if you are having a hard time no matter how old you are. I want to be proof that you can change your life around. I wish you all the courage to live happy and fulfilled lives. No one is perfect, but no one deserves to live in pain. I really hope i have helped in some small way anyone who can relate to my story -i love you guys and want to thank you for standing by me and not judging me for my past struggles.
