Ariana Grande talks openly about mental health in a British TV special airing this week.
In an interview taped in September for the BBC, the pop star said she almost feels guilty about having anxiety “because it’s just in your head and it’s just so crazy how powerful it is.”
Grande explained: “You have ups and downs and sometimes you’ll go weeks at a time where you will be crushing it and there will be no anxiety… and then something will happen that can trigger it and then you have a couple of down days.”

The singer, who split from fiancé Pete Davidson only weeks after the sudden death of her ex-boyfriend Mac Miller, urged people living with anxiety to seek support.
"The most important thing is to remember that everybody has this,” said Grande. “Talk to your loved ones, reach out to people, especially your friends online.
“Reach out to each other.”
