Singer Bebe Rexha has revealed she has bipolar disorder.
In a series of emotional tweets, she opened up about her diagnosis and said she’s “not ashamed anymore.”
“For the longest time, I didn’t understand why I felt so sick,” she wrote. “Why I felt lows that made me not want to leave my house or be around people and why I felt highs that wouldn’t let me sleep, wouldn’t let me stop working or creating music. Now I know why.”
