Lady Gaga Talks About Her Mental Health Issues

Lady Gaga revealed she is still taking medication after feeling traumatised by her career’s sudden takeoff.

After releasing her last pop album in 2013, she admitted suffering a period of depression.

Now 3 years later, she’s releasing “Perfect Illusion” and told The Mirror that she needed a moment to stabilise.

She said, “When my career took off, I don’t remember anything at all. It’s like I’m traumatised. I needed time to recalibrate my soul. I take medication. I’m not saying I feel good because of the medication. I wouldn’t encourage young people to take anti-depressants or mood stabilisers. I openly admit to having battled depression and anxiety and I think a lot of people do. I think it’s better when we all say: ‘Cheers!’ And ‘fess up to it.”
