The Selana Gomez's latest song, My Mind & Me, details the journey of exploring mental health, with the powerful lyrics, "My mind and me, We don't get along sometimes / and it gets hard to breathe but I wouldn't change my life." The song accompanies the actress upcoming documentary, Selena Gomez: My Mind & Me, coming to Apple TV+ on November 4.
"And all of the crashin' and burnin' and breakin', I know now," continues the lyrics. "If somеbody sees me like this, then thеy won't feel alone now. My mind and me." "It's hard to talk and feel heard when you always feel like a burden / don't wanna add to concern I know they already got," Selena sings. "But if I pull back the curtain, then maybe someone who's hurtin' / Will be a little more certain they're not the only one lost."
The upcoming documentary offers an in-depth look at Selena's mental health journey, something she has talked about over the years, with the trailer showcasing emotional moments in the Rare Beauty founder's life. "I just know who you are Selena," he said during the opening clip. "Nobody cares what you're doing. It's about who I am, being OK with where I am. I'm grateful to be alive."
It is also mentioned in the documentary trailer is Selena's diagnosis of lupus, which ultimately led to her kidney transplant and her battle with anxiety and depression. But at this point in the 30-year-old's life, Selena feels she is here to help others and is in a good frame of mind to do so. "I'm happier and in control of my emotions and thoughts," the actress says at the end of the clip. "More than I've ever been."
