During the live video, she told Miley the following:
“I’m from Texas, it’s just not known to talk about mental health. You gotta seem cool. And then I see anger built up in children and teenagers or whatever young adults because they are wanting that so badly. I just feel like when I finally said what I was going to say, I wanted to know everything about it. And it took the fear away.”
