While she chose to ignore them, they still hurt her a lot and triggered her insecurity. She said, "Peoples' comments and judgements can still hurt deeply with their incessant nagging 'you will never be good enough.'"

While Simpson still battles the insecurity, she shared that she's proud of how far she has come and how much she has learned from the past.

Simpson noted how proud she was of her progress. The star, who has been sober since 2017, revealed what the past five years taught her. She said per Prevention, "The most important thing I have learned through the last 5yrs without alcohol being a guard for escapism, is that I CAN and ALWAYS WILL get through it."

She then revealed that she could do anything she wanted with a little positivity and dedication. As a motto, the singer believes that she is "capable of pretty much anything she cares enough about to put her mind to."

The "Pretty Princess" star also praised herself for having all the qualities she needed to succeed and highlighted a few. "I am present. I am deeply inspired," she noted, "I am determined. I am honest. I care about other people."

After boasting about her abilities, the "Irresistible" singer left a message for her critics. She noted that she felt bad for how much they carried with them since they could easily "blurt out" hurtful things to strangers on social media.

"I feel compassion for the opinionated hate that some people can so effortlessly just blurt out with such intensity on social media or in the media in general," she wrote. Implying that they projected their own feelings of insecurity, she continued, "We all have our days of wanting to be, look, do, and feel better. Nobody is alone with that feelin' that I can promise you."

The star, who is on a journey to self-healing, also revealed that she figured out the best way to feel better about herself. She also advised fans to block out the negative energy as she did.

The "Take My Breath Away" singer recalled waking up "anxious and insecure" while dealing with mental health issues. Since then, one thing that kept her "stable and strong" was singing. She explained, "I know what works for me and that is to let go and simply sing while lookin directly inside the mirror, straight in my eyes."

Simpson revealed that it helped her to understand herself and "connect with her heartbeat." She concluded by advising fans to focus on their dreams and "move through them." She also encouraged them to remain positive even if people criticized their process. "Stay true to YOU," she said, explaining that this got her very far in the industry.
