Selena Gomez was once the most followed celebrity on Instagram, however, that is not the case anymore. Selena Gomez has been away from Internet for four and a half years and it has a positive effect on her mental health.

Gomez recently said in an interview, “It has changed my life completely, I am happier, I am more present, I connect more with people,”

She further added “I understand how powerful the internet is, and in so many ways it’s done the best things for the world. But for me, I get to my news that is actually important I get through people in my life.”

Selena currently has around 300 million Instagram followers. She has been very open about challenges in her life including, having bipolar disorder.

“There are places where people go when they need help, and it’s unfortunate that they cost ridiculous amounts of money,” Gomez said. “But [as with] Planned Parenthood, there’s a place for women to feel okay and to feel understood, and I want that for mental health.”
