Hailey Bieber opened up about her week-long "intensive" therapy sessions after confessing to having "really dark" thoughts about "not wanting to be here anymore".
The model, 25, revealed all in a podcast interview on Spotify where she discussed feeling 'not worth it' and a battle with herself inside her mind.
Replying to Call Her Daddy host Alex Cooper about her 'worst times', she said: "When things get really dark, and you start having thoughts of it not being worth it anymore or not wanting to be here anymore, which I have had before in the past."
She added: "Coming out of that, a support system is the most important thing for sure."
"There's also like this kind of weird, twisted thing where I'm like 'I don't get to feel like that because I have an amazing life' and I'm so blessed and I'm so fortunate," she explained.
Hailey, who married chart-topper Justin Bieber in 2018, spoke openly about a voice in her head telling her to 'get over herself'.
"The dialogue in my head says 'get the f**k over it' like 'you don't get to feel that way because there are people in this world that are really struggling, and you're not'," she explained.
Hailey added: "That's sometimes how I feel like I talk to myself, I'm just like 'get over it, you're fine', that kind of thing and I've had to really try to be more gentle with myself.
"I hate crying in front of people, I don't do it, it feels so awkward and cringe to me to cry in front of people and it's always been such an uncomfortable thing for me.
"I'm 100 per cent sure that I will be forever working on that."
She confessed to going back into therapy at the end of last year, into the beginning of this year in an "intensive" programme with doctors.
Hailey explained: "In December going into the new year, I went to this place that was a like therapy intensive, I was there for seven days, no phone, literally therapy like hours and hours a day.
"[My therapist and I] spoke about tiptoeing around or not sticking up for myself.
"I've never enjoyed confrontation and I think a lot of it comes from my mum, who is a really sweet person, but she, for as long as I can remember, never liked confrontation.
"She, I feel like, didn’t stick up for herself and to this day doesn’t say what she wants, she is just a very gentle, kind of reserved and pulled back woman and there's so much of her that I super respect, but I think it's a pattern that I watched growing up.
"She was just very non-confrontational and there was a lot we didn’t talk about and there were subjects we danced around.
"As I've got older and had open conversations with my mum and she's expressed things that have happened to her in her life and things that she's gone through that I never knew about, it made me understand why she might be like that."
