Selena Gomez says bipolar diagnosis helped her understand herself

Selena Gomez says her bipolar diagnosis has helped her "understand" her emotions.

The 'Lose You to Love Me' hitmaker opened up about being diagnosed with the mental health condition earlier this year, and has now said being able to put a label on her feelings has helped her process the way her brain works, and has made her feel more "comfortable".

To keep her mental health in check, Selena limits her time on social media, and recently handed control of her Instagram account for two weeks over to educational programming created by influential leaders in the Black Lives Matter movement.
