Billie Eilish recently opened up about her struggles with depression and anxiety, admitting she almost committed suicide in 2018.

“I’m happier and I want to tell people that it does get better,” Eilish, who’s up for six Grammys this year, said. “It genuinely does and I fully did not think it would and I want that to be known. I want it to be clear that it’s like, if you be patient with yourself and work on what’s going to make you feel better in your life, you’ll be okay.”
