June 17 (UPI) -- Justin Bieber says he feels "broken," "tired" and "angry."
The "One Time" singer, 31, took to Instagram to discuss his mental state Monday.
"People keep telling me to heal," he wrote. "Don't you think if I could have fixed myself I would have already? I know I'm broken. I know I have anger issues."
He said he's been working his entire life to be the way he was told he needed to be.
"And it just keeps making me more tired and more angry," he continued. "The harder I try to grow, the more focused on myself I am. Jesus is the only person who keeps me wanting to make my life about others. Because honestly I'm exhausted with thinking about myself lately. Aren't you?"
Bieber captioned his post with a middle finger emoji. Followers in the over 17,000 comments showed their support for the singer and urged him to leave Los Angeles.
The day before, Bieber posted screenshots from an apparent text exchange with a former friend.
"I will never suppress my emotions for someone," he wrote. "Conflict is a part of relationship. If you don't like my anger you don't like me. My anger is a response to the pain I have been through. Asking a traumatized person not to be traumatized is simply mean."
Other posts from that day include images of Jack, his son, and Hailey Bieber, his wife, from his first Father's Day.

Danny Boyle says he filmed '28 Years Later' with iPhones, drones, and a goat
Many Hollywood directors use expensive cameras to film their blockbusters. Danny Boyle 's approach to filming his zombie sequel "28 Years Later" was a bit more… experimental. "We did strap a camera to some animals a couple of times — yeah, a goat," Boyle told Business Insider. The director, whose 2002 horror classic "28 Days Later" was shot on digital cameras for a deliberately lo-fi look, was keen to take a similarly unconventional approach with his follow-up film two decades later. The movie, written by Alex Garland, follows 12-year-old Spike (Alfie Williams) as he leaves his secluded island home for the first time with his father, Jamie (Aaron Taylor-Johnson), and comes face-to-face with hordes of people infected with the Rage Virus. To capture their terrifying encounters with zombies, Boyle told BI he relied on iPhones, drones, and yes, those goats. While Boyle said the goat shot didn't make it into the final cut, the tactic prompted him to try strapping a camera to a new variant of the infected, called the "Slow-Low," which crawls on the ground eating bugs. "Having done it with the goats, you then think, 'Oh!'" Boyle said. That Slow-Low shot made it into the film — and into the trailer, too. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Eammon Jacobs (@eammonjacobs) For the film's pulse-pounding chase scenes, Boyle relied on iPhones and drones instead of heavy high-tech equipment. "Any smartphone now can record at 4K, indeed up to 60 frames per second, which is more than enough resolution you need for cinema exhibition," he said. Keeping the crew light on their feet also helped them more easily navigate the wild landscape of Northumberland, the UK region used as a filming location for "28 Years Later." Plus, there's an added bonus: shooting on iPhones makes things "way, way cheaper."
