Lizzo speaks about being unable to 'take it' after 'bawling in bed'

Grammy winner Lizzo candidly shares personal struggle, inspiring millions with vulnerable Instagram post about mental health challenges

"My crashouts about the world are valid. And so are yours - Lizzo"

Los Angeles, May 22

Singer-songwriter Lizzo is sharing the details of her mental health journey. Recently, the 'Truth Hurts' singer, 37, took a moment to share with her nearly 12 million Instagram followers that she doesn't always have everything together.

She also let her supporters know that it's perfectly fine to feel that way, reports 'People' magazine.

"My crashouts about the world are valid. And so are yours", her caption began. A photo of Lizzo sitting, smiling as she showed off a black and white "God's sexiest soldier" T-shirt accompanied the post.

As per 'People', she also wore a black baseball cap from her Yitty shapewear line. "Today I was bawling in bed... I cancelled my workout... I was driving around sobbing because some days I just can't take it. This s*** ain't easy for anybody", the 'Water Me' singer confessed.

She added, "I have grace for everyone who feels like they're going insane... for everyone who feels like nothing is good enough... for everyone who feels like they failed... I FEEL YOU". Lizzo concluded her post with a heartfelt reminder, "But I'm still here, and so are you". Her fans were appreciative of her words.

"If I ever bump into Lizzo, You're getting the biggest hug", one person commented. Another said, "Your honestly helps so many who are feeling the same way. Thank you (sic)".

Another acknowledged the Grammy winner for using her platform to spread awareness for mental health, noting that "people are even more mean when you're a celeb. They think you don't have feelings and can't be touched. It's wrong to wish so much bad onto a stranger you don't even know b/c of popularity or social status".

In a second post, Lizzo wrote "Have a good day" as the caption to a clip of her playing the flute in a backyard. The 'About Damn Time' singer has opened up about her mental health before.

In a March 29 video of herself in the same backyard, standing inside a soundbath, she wrote, "I crashed out bad today BUT this time I didn't bring it to the internet... you know what that's called? GROWTH". More recently, as Lizzo celebrated her birthday on April 27, she reflected on her strength.

It's so refreshing to see global celebrities like Lizzo talk openly about mental health struggles. In India, we still treat mental health as a taboo topic. More people need to understand it's okay to not be okay sometimes. 💛

While I appreciate Lizzo's honesty, I wonder if celebrities realize how privileged they are to have access to mental health resources. Ordinary people in countries like ours often can't afford therapy or take mental health days.

Her message hits home! Just yesterday I was crying in my office bathroom stall because of work pressure. We need more public figures normalizing these conversations. Also love that she's promoting self-acceptance through her Yitty brand 👏

The flute playing part made me smile! It's like our Indian concept of "music therapy" - when I'm stressed, I listen to classical ragas or play my harmonium. Different cultures, same healing methods.

I admire her vulnerability but worry about oversharing on social media. In India, we believe some emotions are meant to be private. Maybe that's why our mental health stigma persists - we don't talk enough about it publicly.

Her "God's sexiest soldier" tee is everything! 😂 We need this kind of self-love energy in India where body positivity is still a new concept. More power to Lizzo for keeping it real while spreading important messages.
