This post comes after Taylor opened up in a video earlier this month about her mental health struggles. The creator explained that she “dealt with really bad anxiety and depression” as well as “really bad suicidal thoughts.” She continued:

“I attempted to take my own life, inflicted self-harm on myself throughout high school. I thought I beat all my mental health issues but when I separated from my ex-husband, they came back again and really, really bad.”

Oof. Taylor said she contemplated taking her life again last year. However, she got a “wake-up call” to seek help when her son saw her self-harm scars. Watch (below):
