Loren Gray’s reign on social media has been monumental. The singer-songwriter/influencer rose to prominence in part by lip syncing radio hits and eventually started working on her own music. Now, she’s one of the most followed individuals on TikTok.
After launching her career with singles like “Queen” and “Anti-Everything,” she recently released her full-length debut, Guilty. Across songs like the title track, “Never Be Perfect,” and “Misery Loves Company,” the singer reveals that despite all her fame and success, there are still moments where she feels anything but happy.
When she joins Dr. Mike on this episode of Going There, she discusses how she acknowledges all the parts of her mental health journey. In particular, she unpacks the processes she utilizes to try and understand the various experiences of her life, especially when it comes to her struggle with depression.
“I feel like sometimes I sort of force myself into a state of false happiness, where I’m trying to convince myself that I’m happy when I’m really not,” she explains. “Sometimes I sort of fake it til I make it, I force myself into these very social, outgoing environments and convince myself that I’m happy and that everything is great.”
