Lizzo admits some days she 'just can't take it' after 'bawling in bed'
Lizzo was "bawling in bed" this week and admitted some days she "just can't take it".
The 37-year-old singer has reflected on her mental health in a candid message to her fans where she urged them to keep going despite their struggles.
She wrote on Instagram on Wednesday (21.05.25): "My crashouts about the world are valid. And so are yours.
"Today I was bawling in bed… I cancelled my workout… I was driving around sobbing because some days I just can't take it. This s*** ain't easy for anybody.
"I have grace for everyone who feels like they're going insane… for everyone who feels like nothing is good enough… for everyone who feels like they failed… I FEEL YOU...
'But I'm still here, and so are you.'
The 'Truth Hurts' hitmaker recently celebrated her birthday on April 27, and used the special day as an opportunity to open up about her mental health.
She wrote at the time: "I'm a tough cookie. I tried my whole life not to cry and be seen as anything less than strong.
"I had a lot of anxiety leading up to my birthday and I could feel it clogging my emotions…"
Despite "freaking out" during the evening, she found herself looking around at her loved ones and "cried like a baby" with tears of joy.
"Last night at dinner, while freaking out about not spending time with everyone equally and worrying if people were having a good time, I looked and saw my mommy brother sister sitting in front of me, eating and smiling..
"I looked to my right and my best friend Lexo was making a joke about eating avocados and I lost it. I cried like a baby! I couldn't control the tears pouring through the wall I'd been hiding behind.
"I was SO HAPPY because regardless of yesterday and regardless of what was gonna happen next, in that very moment I had everything I needed. In that moment everything was ok."

Lizzo shows off weight loss in two-piece bikini
Singer Lizzo has stripped down to a two-piece bikini to show off her dramatic weight loss in a new video. The singer modelled a number of different underwear and shapewear outfits for a video promoting her brand, Yitty. An outspoken body positivity advocate, Lizzo recently shared publicly that she'd hit her 'goal weight,' after embarking on a health kick at the start of 2024. 'Today when I stepped on my scale, I reached my weight release goal. I haven't seen this number since 2014,' she shared on social media. She continued, 'Let this be a reminder you can do anything you put your mind to. Time for new goals!' An accompanying graphic showed that she had lowered her body mass index (BMI) by 10.5 and had lost 16% of her body fat since starting her weight loss journey in January of last year. In a recent TikTok live, Lizzo went into detail about her eating habits and how she stays in 'calorie deficit' while still enjoying sweet treats. 'I do something sweet. It's gotta be with some sort of like carb. I'll have like almond butter and toast. So, everybody's body is different. Find out what works for you,' she told her followers. And despite the rumours – and many a sudden celeb slim-down coinciding with the drug's rise in popularity – Lizzo has insisted that Ozempic had nothing to do with her weight loss journey. 'When you finally get Ozempic allegations after 5 months of weight training and calorie deficit,' she wrote on social media last year. She said at the time that rumours she'd been using the drug were 'like a reward' after spending so much time working out and improving her diet. Lizzo might be in the best shape of her life, but her career fortunes have taken a hit in recent months, with her new music failing to make an impact. Despite arriving with glossy, big budget music videos, recent singles Love in Real Life and Still Bad have failed to chart anywhere – a brutal result for an artist who enjoyed a string of multi-platinum smashes after her breakthrough single Truth Hurts belatedly took off in 2019, two years after its original release.
