Justin Bieber is facing concern from those closest to him after a series of raw Instagram text messages with a friend went public and revealed deeper emotional struggles.

Source Says Justin Bieber’s Friends Are Staging An Intervention

A source has spoken out about Justin Bieber’s anger issues and how they have affected his relationship with his close friends.
Speaking to the Daily Mail, the insider revealed that it had become a norm for the pop icon to be very emotional with people he liked, especially friends.
“That’s how it works with Justin, if he likes you. Things become overwhelming and very intense, very quickly,” they said.
The insider shared that Bieber’s emotions made everyone around him cautious of their actions, fearing they might be cut off easily.
“Justin has no trouble cutting people off with very little or no notice. You never really know what you’re going to say to set him off. Someone will p-ss him off and he’s done. Once they’re blocked, they’re clocked for good. He doesn’t go back to them,” they added.
According to the source, being the recipient of anger wasn’t “a pleasant experience,” so his friends were staging an intervention for the 31-year-old.

The revelation comes after Bieber ruthlessly cut off a very close friend via text, sparking concern.
Taking to Instagram on Sunday, June 15, the “Baby” hitmaker vented his frustration as he shared a confrontational text message exchange with an unidentified friend.
“I will never suppress my emotions for someone,” Bieber wrote, according to the screenshot.
“Conflict is a part of relationship. If you don’t like my anger you don’t like me. My anger is a response to pain I have been through. Asking a traumatized person not to be traumatized is simply mean,” he continued.
The friend then responded, “I’m not used to someone lashing out at me. It’s not that I don’t see and feel your anger.”
Bieber fired back, writing, “Ouch. This friendship is officially over. I will never accept a man calling my anger lashing out. I enjoyed our short-lived relationship.”

He shared the text conversation on his Instagram Stories, alongside a write-up over the image that read, “Quit asking me if I'm okay. Quit asking me how I’m doing. I don’t do that to you because I know how life is for all of us. It’s hard. Let’s encourage our people not project our insecurities onto one another.”
Bieber also noted that the show of concern didn’t come off as “care” but “oppressive.”

Bieber noted that the harder he tried to “grow,” the more focused he became on himself. “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?” the Canadian concluded.”
