Mariah Carey Opens Up About Her Struggles With Bipolar Disorder

The iconic singer spent a lot of time suffering alone.

Mariah finally sought treatment recently when the stress of her professional life, E! reality show and romantic life became too much to bear.

“Until recently I lived in denial and isolation and in constant fear someone would expose me,” Mariah said. “It was too heavy a burden to carry and I simply couldn’t do that anymore. I sought and received treatment, I put positive people around me and I got back to doing what I love — writing songs and making music.”
