15 Celebrities Who Struggled with Mental Illness

Selena Gomez, 27 years old, singer and actress

Selena Gomez is an American actress and singer. She was born in Grand Prairie, Texas and discovered a passion for music and acting from a very young age. 

Selena Gomez is also involved in philanthropic ventures, various charity work, social and environmental causes. She thinks that people tend to judge – in a negative way – the girls who decide to start a therapy session. 

“Dialectical behavior therapy has completely changed my life. I wish more people would talk about therapy. We girls, we’re taught to be almost too resilient, to be strong and sexy and cool and laid-back, the girl who’s down. We also need to feel allowed to fall apart,” said Selena.
