Bieber previously confessed to suffering from depression in his joint Vogue cover story with wife Baldwin, as well asl to "having a legitimate problem with sex" and self-medicating with Xanax.

“I found myself doing things that I was so ashamed of, being super-promiscuous and stuff, and I think I used Xanax because I was so ashamed," he said. "My mom always said to treat women with respect. For me that was always in my head while I was doing it, so I could never enjoy it. Drugs put a screen between me and what I was doing. It got pretty dark. I think there were times when my security was coming in late at night to check my pulse and see if I was still breathing.”

In the same profile, Bieber described himself as "emotionally unstable."
