In an interview with People magazine,  Mariah Carey reveals for the first time her battle with bipolar disorder.

Although she was first diagnosed in 2001, “I didn’t want to believe it,” the superstar singer-songwriter tells PEOPLE editor in chief Jess Cagle.

Carey says she finally sought treatment recently after “the hardest couple of years I’ve been through”

“Until recently I lived in denial and isolation and in constant fear someone would expose me,” she says. “It was too heavy a burden to carry and I simply couldn’t do that anymore. I sought and received treatment, I put positive people around me and I got back to doing what I love

Im just glad she has opened up about it because again we must all remember we are all HUMAN, and we all go through things in life, and I’m sure someone who maybe dealing with Bi-Polar disorder will seek the help they need, just like she did!
