This isn't the first time Bieber has shared his inner struggles.
On March 13, he spoke about his feelings of self-doubt and unworthiness. He wrote, "People told me my whole life 'wow, Justin, you deserve that,' but I personally have always felt unworthy. Like I was a fraud. Like when people told me I deserved something, it made me feel sneaky, like, damn, if only they knew my thoughts."
"How judgmental I am, how selfish I really am, they wouldn't be saying this. I say all this to say, if you feel sneaky, welcome to the club. I definitely feel unequipped and unqualified most days," he continued.
