Sam Smith Addresses His Struggles: ‘I Am Enough’
Sam Smith recently went to Instagram to discuss the struggles he’s been dealing with for the past few years.
The singer posted a photo on Instagram that says “I AM ENOUGH,” with a lengthy caption. It reads:
“Just wanted to share a little thought with you all. Sitting here on my first holiday in a long long time. Looking back on a year and a half of therapy and what has been probably the most challenging time of my short 27 years here. I’ve watched and read so much over the last 6 months to try and make sense of all the mess in my head. Tried to find ways to organise all of my problems so that they are bound and organised into folders and boxes, so that they will never haunt or effect me again.”
“But I’m slowly starting to realise that the words above are the only words that matter…and they are the words of the incredible @brenebrown… ‘You are enough.’ That mess in your mind is not a mess. It is who you are. By constantly trying to change and seek perfection and a life of no pain only causes more pain I am realising.”
“Still on the course and learning but feeling the closest I’ve ever felt to real space of Joy, gratitude and peace.”
At the end of his post, Smith gives encouragement to his fans.
“I know we are all dealing some really heavy s*** at times. And I find listening to words from a stranger comforting. So hopefully sometimes I can be that stranger to you guys.”
“Now every morning and every night before you go to bed, say these words to yourself in the mirror. I’m gonna do it to. We are all in this together.”
Under the post, celebrities like Ryan Tedder, Lauren Jauregui, Tess Holliday, and Lisa Rinna all commented in support of Sam Smith.
