Selena Gomez looks GLOWING after leaving treatment facility
Selena Gomez looks healthy and refreshed in the first photos of the star since entering a treatment facility for anxiety and depression in October.
The Wolves singer went on a fun field trip to the snow in Big Bear, California, yesterday.
The star was all smiles on her day out with friends, including her former Wizards of Waverly Place co-star Bailee Madison.
Selena wore a black outfit for her outdoor activities, striking a pose with her friends and looking healthier than ever after snow-tubing.
Gomez entered a treatment facility for anxiety and depression last October following her struggle and ongoing issues with Lupus, a disease which caused her to require a kidney transplant in 2017.
After undergoing a trip to hospital in September, the star appeared under a huge amount of strain.
A source told E! News that Selena "started to feel super overwhelmed" but just a week after entering the treatment centre she was "already feeling better than she did last week."
Since leaving her treatment programme in New York, Selena hasn't made many public outings or appearances.
She utilised dialectical behaviour therapy (DBT), a form of cognitive-behavioural psychology, while receiving treatment.
The 26-year-old told Vogue in 2017 that "DBT has completely changed my life," adding,
"I wish more people would talk about therapy. We girls, we're taught to be almost too resilient, to be strong and sexy and cool and laid-back, the girl who's down. We also need to feel allowed to fall apart."
The former Disney star seems to rely a lot on her friendships for support during times of tough mental and physical health.
During a photoshoot for a campaign, she had her friends join her on set;
"I don't know what I would be without my friends. They've saved my life, they've been there for me through the thick and thin of it all," she said in a video for SGxPUMA.
We're so glad for Selena that she has such loyal friends, and wish her all the best with her health in future.
She's truly inspiring, it can't be easy to discuss mental health under the public eye.
