"The truth is, I wake up every morning. Some days I'm optimistic. Sometimes I wake up pessimistic," Bieber admitted. "I can't control how I'm gonna feel."
Bieber revealed that in the past, he sometimes found himself unknowingly blaming God for waking up in a low mood instead of reaching out in prayer for a shift in mindset.
"I can't control how I'm gonna feel," he wrote. "I would find myself even subconsciously blaming god for the bad feeling I woke up with rather than communicate with him and ask him to help me have a change of perspective."
He added: "I've been really asking god to help me see the best in people even after being used in the way I have."

Concerns Over Justin Bieber's Well-Being Grow As Former Collaborators Express Worries
Meanwhile, concerns about Bieber's mental well-being continue to mount, with former collaborators speaking out in a recent piece by The Hollywood Reporter.
Longtime musical partner Poo Bear, the hitmaker behind songs like "Despacito," "What Do You Mean?" and "Where Are Ü Now," expressed his hope for Bieber to be okay, stating "Whatever he's going through, I pray for him and hope he's OK."
One former team member didn't hold back, describing a troubling decline: "Seeing him disintegrate like this… It's watching the embodiment of someone not living their purpose. He's lost. There's no one protecting him because there's no one there willing to say no to him. You say no, you get blown out."
Despite growing public concern, someone from the singer's inner circle downplayed the speculation, telling the publication, "Artists are artists — they don't look at the world the way you and I do. He's healthier than all of us — physically and mentally."
