The former One Direction member made the revelation while speaking about his mental health in a video on his Instagram story on July 13.
“I know I mentioned in my last video that I’ve been diagnosed with a few medical conditions,” he began. I’m not going to go into too much detail, but one of them is that there’s basically a lot of manic things going on in my life, as you’ve seen. But on the other hand, I feel like I lose my sobriety at very bad moments, and that’s how I felt today. I have to isolate the two things to see them separately and now that I know what it is I can identify them. »
The musician praised his support group for mentoring, adding, “I’m sure they can see into me when I’m not really there.”
The Strip That Down singer recently announced he has been sober for almost six months after spending 100 days in a rehab center in the US. In the captions, Liam Payne revealed he shot the same video “at different times throughout the year” but was too scared to release it. However, on Thursday he decided to do so to help others who may also be struggling with mental health issues.
“I want to give everyone who is struggling the gift I received by sharing some of the things I learned from the specialists while I was away,” he wrote. The first thing I did every day was check in and it’s important not to suppress your feelings. Feelings are one of the greatest gifts we have and I’ve been blocking things out for so long. »
