Selena Gomez launches a new initiative reflecting mental health

The pop star announced the launch of her beauty brand's new initiative called #MentalHealth101 for Rare Impact. As she explained in her Instagram post, the campaign is "close to her heart" because she knows how scary and lonely it can feel to face anxiety and depression by at a young age. "If I had learned about my mental health earlier on – been taught about my condition in school the way I was taught about other subjects – my journey could have looked very different," the star continued. The Spring Breakers actress then addressed her millions of followers, writing, "For anyone who is hurting right now, I hope you know that you are not alone. Getting support and educating myself on mental health has changed my life, and it can change yours too." Through her Mental Health 101 campaign, Selena Gomez hopes to provide "stepping stones" for those who wish to better understand their mental health. According to the star, she is considering retiring or taking a break from music after receiving stellar reviews for her song Lose You to Love Me.
