“It was a story about how I stole him from a friend, and we were sleeping with each other, but so many of them were all lies. It almost put me into depression,” she said.

The musician further noted that it was her first time experiencing how

depression felt like.

“That was the first time in my life I got to understand what people who say they are depressed feel. I remember entering my room, and I didn’t come out for two days.
