Selena Gomez has opened up about how a mental health diagnosis changed her life in a new interview with Good Morning America .

The singer, who shared in April 2020 that she was diagnosed with bipolar disorder , told GMA on Monday that it was really freeing to have the information.

It made me really happy because I started to have a relationship with myself, and I think thats the best part, Gomez said, adding that shes the happiest Ive ever been.

The Only Murders in the Building star first publicly disclosed her diagnosis during an appearance on Miley Cyrus Instagram Live talk show, Bright Minded, at the beginning of the pandemic.

After years of going through a lot of different things, I realized that I was bipolar and so when I go to know more information, it actually helps me, the actor told Cyrus at the time. It doesnt scare me once I know it. I think people get scared of that, right?
