After revealing her life story with her followers in the highly anticipated documentary Selena Gomez: My Mind & Me, Selena Gomez is "happy and relieved."
According to a source close to the Only Murders in the Building actor-singer, she was "thrilled" after receiving "mind-blowing" feedback on her documentary.
“She poured her heart and soul into this and it took a heck of a lot of courage to go as deep into her journey as she did,” the insider said.
“As happy and centered as she is now, this is someone who freely admits she’s hit the wall numerous times in her life and had to rebuild and reset herself when all hope may have seemed lost."
“She’s grateful to have had these second chances, especially as it gives her the opportunity to help others and send that message loud and clear that anything is possible if you have the right mentality and tools at your disposal,” the source added.
The six-year long documentary by Alek Keshishian provides insight into Gomez's mental health issues, a kidney transplant caused by lupus, and a bipolar diagnosis.
“It felt scary to put so much of herself out there and Selena wouldn’t have been human if that didn’t feel daunting and scary before she approved the final version,” the insider continued.
“She got past the jitters by reminding herself why it was so important to follow through, to tell her truth, and hopefully inspire."
“The feedback she’s gotten so far has been mind-blowing, everyone’s thrilled and telling her she should be so proud of herself which she really is,” the outlet shared.
Without mentioning him by name, Gomez talked in her movie about her romance with Justin Bieber and their very public breakup.
