Noah Cyrus says she feels “so lucky” to have had access to therapy during one of the most difficult periods in her life.

The 25-year-old singer, who has previously spoken about her battles with depression and anxiety, told Billboard that therapy played a major role in helping her navigate some of her darkest moments.

“When I look back on it, I think about how I didn’t know at the time that I would be at a place where I am standing here now in an interview like this, and I don’t talk about this ever, so I’m totally losing it right now,” Noah said through tears during an interview in partnership with BetterHelp. “Sorry, like I feel so lucky for being able to have the resources of therapy.”

The July artist, who is the younger sister of Miley Cyrus, sought therapy while coping with grief and addiction.

“Whenever I was 20, turning 21—just about 21—I was really deep in addiction to downers,” she shared. “I had recently lost my grandmother at the time, and it just felt like I had, you know, pushed myself so far away from my family and my mom, who I’m so close with, and I had really just gotten myself in such a dark place, and I felt so alone that help to me looked like first reaching out to my therapist and being really honest about the struggles that I was facing.”

She continued, “So I had a lot to tackle and a lot to uncover, and one that started with the addiction, but there were so many layers underneath the addiction.”

Later in the interview, Noah spoke about how her latest album, I Want My Loved Ones to Go with Me, represents a more optimistic stage in her life.

“Though it’s like a heavier album, it has felt a lot more hopeful in the room and a lot more lighter,” she said. “This album’s more about transitioning and moving forward and it being more of a really comforting release, rather than something painful that you’re walking away from.”
