Justin Bieber’s drug problem was so severe that bodyguards had to check his pulse while he slept

In an interview with GQ magazine, the 27-year-old singer spoke freely and revealed the extent of his drug problem and the development of his relationship with wife Hailey Baldwin and Christianity.

“I have a woman I love, and for whom I feel comforted. I feel safe. I feel that my relationship with God is wonderful. And I have this outpouring of love that I want to be able to share with people, you know?” Bieber told journalist Zach Baron.

The Canadian superstar has developed a reputation for bad behavior and a serious drug habit in recent years, to the point that security guards would come into his room at night and check his pulse to make sure he was still alive, Bieber told GQ said.

“It was as if I had achieved all this success and it was still like: I’m still sad, and I’m still in pain. And I’m still having these unresolved issues. And I thought all the success was going to make everything right. “And to me, the drug was an anesthetic just to keep coming through,” he said.

Hailey Bieber on Justin's marriage 'insanely young'
Bieber’s first single, “One Time”, became platinum in 2009 when he was just 15 years old. He became a world star for the next few years, before his behavior became increasingly erratic, with a string of brushes according to the law.
In November 2018, Bieber announces that he is married to Hailey Baldwin.
Then, in March 2019, he said he was taking time away from music to concentrate on his mental health.
He discusses this struggle, as well as his revelation in June 2020 that he suffered from Lyme disease, in the GQ interview.

“To be honest, I’m very healthy, and I’ve had a lot of things. I did have mono, and I have Lyme disease,” Bieber said.

“But I also navigated a lot of emotional realms, which had a lot to do with it. And we like to blame a lot of things on other things. Sometimes … it’s often just your own stuff.”

Bieber said his marriage became a major positive force after a difficult start.

“The first year of the marriage was very difficult,” he said, “because there was a lot to go back to the trauma stuff.”

But now, he said, “we just create these moments for ourselves as a couple, as a family, that builds us on these memories. And it’s nice that we have them to look forward to.”

Baldwin had earlier said the couple were ‘insanely young’ when they tied the knot. She was 21 and Bieber was then 24.

His faith is another reason why Bieber seems to be in a better place these days.

God “is grace,” he said. “Every time we get confused, He picks us up every time. That’s how I see it. And so it’s, ‘I made a mistake. I will not stay in it. I’m not ashamed. But it actually makes me want to do better. “

Bieber released his sixth album “Justice” in March.
