“I have a woman that I adore who makes me feel comforted. I feel safe. I feel like my relationship with God is wonderful. And I have this outpouring of love that I want to be able to share with people, you know. ? ”Bieber told journalist Zach Baron.
“It was like I had all this success and it was still like, I’m still sad and I’m still in pain. And I still have these unresolved problems. And I thought all the success would make up for everything. And so for me the drugs were a narcotic just to get through, ”he said.
“To be honest, I’m a lot healthier, and a lot was happening. I had mono and I have Lyme disease,” said Bieber.
“But I also navigated a lot of emotional terrain, which had a lot to do with it. And we like to blame a lot of things on other things. Sometimes … It’s often just your own stuff.”
Bieber said his marriage has become a major positive force after a rocky start.
“The first year of marriage was really tough,” he said, “because there was a lot to go back to the trauma stuff.”
But now, he said, “we’re just creating these moments for us as a couple, as a family, building these memories. And it’s great that we have that to look forward to.”
His faith is another reason why Bieber seems to be in a better place these days.
God “is grace,” he said. “Every time we screw it up, He picks us up every time. That’s how I see it. And so it’s like, ‘I made a mistake. I won’t get stuck in it. I’m not in shame. But it actually makes me want to do better. ‘
Bieber released his sixth album “Justice” in March.
