He's really going through it right now.

Justin Bieber just revealed that he has been "struggling a lot" recently. A few weeks ago, there were rumours the "Sorry" singer had depression and that he was receiving treatment to get back on track.

Justin shared a photo with his manager Scooter Braun and Kanye West on Instagram and alongside it he shared an emotional update on how he was feeling.

"Just wanted to keep you guys updated a little bit hopefully what I'm going through will resonate with you guys," he wrote. "Been struggling a lot. Just feeling super disconnected and weird..

"I always bounce back so I'm not worried just wanted to reach out and ask for your guys to pray for me. God is faithful and ur prayers really work thanks .. the most human season I've ever been in facing my stuff head on.."

Justin has previously opened up about how fame has had an impact on his mental health and brought its challenges, so much so he turned to using drugs.

"I found myself doing things that I was so ashamed of, being super-promiscuous and stuff, and I think I used Xanax because I was so ashamed...I got really depressed on tour," he said in a joint interview with his wife Hailey Baldwin for Vogue.

"I haven't talked about this, and I'm still processing so much stuff that I haven't talked about. I was lonely. I needed some time."
