Justin Bieber has issued a fresh statement on Instagram, sparking further concern from his beloved fans as he admits he knows he is “broken”. The 31-year-old singer shared a series of questionable posts on Instagram on Sunday, including screenshots of a heated text message argument he had with an unnamed friend, which resulted in Justin ‘blocking’ the unknown contact and telling them to ‘”leave him alone”.
Fans of the Love Yourself hitmaker have been sending messages of love and support, with many urging the star to ‘heal’ after he confessed he is “traumatised” and full of “anger in response”. Responding to his fans’ advice, Justin took to his Instagram stories to write: “People keep telling me to heal. Don’t you think if I could have fixed myself, I would have already?
“I know I’m broken. I know I have anger issues. I tried to do the work my whole life, to be like the people who told me I needed to be fixed like them. And it just keeps making me more tired and more angry. The harder I grow to try, the more focussed on myself I am.
“Jesus is the only person who keeps me wanting to make my life about others. Because honestly I’m exhausted with thinking about myself lately aren’t you?”
Justin has since shared the post, which could be depicted as a cry for help, to his Instagram grid, with his 294M followers rushing to his side once more to offer messages of goodwill.

Fans, who have been sending “prayers” for the Lonely singer, left kind words on his post.
One replied: “Stay strong dude. The past hasn’t been kind to you,” alongside a broken heart emoji.
A second penned: “You can do it Justin. You will feel better, I know. Don’t let other people make you feel like this. You are loved.”
A third commented: “Justin know that you are not alone, we are with you, I love you.”
Someone else wrote: “We are so sorry you’re hurting… you deserve healing. Jesus has you, always and your fans love you so much.”
The singer sparked concern yesterday after uploading a total of 18 Instagram grid posts in just a matter of hours, repeatedly using an emoji depicting a middle finger sign across his multiple updates.
He shared fiery text messages with an unnamed recipient, revealing three slides of his conversation over iMessage.
The texts read: “I will never suppress my emotions for someone. Conflict is a part of a relationship. If you don’t like my anger you don’t like.
“My anger is a response to pain I have been thru. Asking a traumatised person not to be traumatised is simply mean.”
The anonymous contact replied: “I’m not used to someone lashing out at me. It’s not that I don’t see and feel your anger.”
Justin wrote back: “Ouch. This friendship is officially over. I will never accept a man calling my anger lashing out.
