Lizzo shared a vulnerable moment on TikTok about her mental health.

Thousands of comments filled with love and support for the singer poured in.

Wiping away tears in her eyes, Lizzo said:

"You know that part of sadness where you feel like a burden on everyone and annoying and nobody cares about you? Can we get rid of that part?"
"It's like yo, I'm already sad. You gotta add insult to injury that I have no one to talk to about it."
"It's crazy. Like why do we feel this way? Why do we feel this way when we get sad?"
"I don't want to feel this way anymore."
"I want to feel like I do have someone to talk to, people do care about me, I am loved, I am not alone."
"I don't want to feel but I don't feel like that."


Lizzo ended the video saying it was "embarrassing" to show those emotions, but so many people responded with quite the opposite.
