    Selena Gomez doesn't sleep in her bedroom because it's a trigger for a "really dark time" in her life

    The 32-year-old actress-and-singer has bipolar disorder and opened up about how it impacts her daily life during a panel for World Mental Health Day


    Speaking at the Keynote Conversation on Wondermind's Mental Fitness Summit alongside her mom Mandy Teefe recently, she shared: "I don't have a lot of people in my life, [but] I know who my inner circle is.

    "I have to talk things out. And I have a therapist too, but it's also nice to have people around you who will just listen to you. There is a freedom in letting go of whatever it is that's keeping you stuck and that lump in your throat."

    The 'Only Murders in the Building' star battles anxiety often and admitted it feels like "doomsday" whenever it takes over but shared how she is able to calm down by having a "positive conversation" with herself.

    She continued: "I am a very anxious person. It's kind of like doomsday, and I think having a positive conversation with yourself, even if that sounds weird, it's really impactful.

    "Like before I step out of the car, and there's going to be lots of noises and stuff-if that's the case, I'm not saying that's every day-but I have to breathe, and I have to say, 'All of this is a gift, and I may not be in the mood for this, [but] every time I see someone and end up making them smile, [it] always just makes my day no matter how I'm feeling."

    Selena then revealed that she never sleeps in her own bedroom because she spent so much time there when she was going through a low point in her life.

    She added: "I'm a little bit different than my mom, because I spent too much time in my bedroom that I actually don't even sleep in my bedroom anymore, because I associate it with such a really dark time."
