Nessa Barrett addresses her weight loss and drugs accusations:
“When I started losing weight recently, it was because of stress and anxiety. I’ve been dealing with an immense amount of hate for like six months now. I had an album coming out, and I was so stressed and anxious all the time that I started losing weight. Before I even noticed, everyone started commenting on it. Because of everyone’s comments, yes, it manifested into my eating disorder. Oh my god, thank you for telling me—like all the people around me and everyone who loves me have literally pushed me into recovery. I’m recovering. I’m getting better. I’ve been in recovery for two weeks now, but everyone is constantly still commenting about how sick I look.”
