    Sam Smith is learning to accept himself

    The 27-year-old singer took to Instagram on Tuesday (20.08.19) to share a lengthy message in which he described the “challenging” year he has had, and said he is now trying to tell himself that he is “enough”


    In the lengthy post, he wrote: “Just wanted to share a little thought with you all. Sitting here on my first holiday in a long long time. Looking back on a year and a half of therapy and what has been probably the most challenging time of my short 27 years here. I’ve watched and read so much over the last 6 months to try and make sense of all the mess in my head. Tried to find ways to organise all of my problems so that they are bound and organised into folders and boxes, so that they will never haunt me or effect me again. But I’m slowly starting to realise that the words above are the only words that really matter.... and they are the words of the incredible @brenebrown .... ‘You are enough’

    “That mess in your mind is not a mess. It is who you are. By constantly trying to change and seek perfection and a life of no pain only causes more pain I am realising. (sic)"

    The ‘Too Good at Goodbyes’ hitmaker then encouraged his fans to tell themselves they are “enough” too, as he vowed to be a “comforting” voice for his followers who are “dealing with some really heavy s**t”.

    He added: “Still on course and learning but feeling the closest I’ve ever felt to a real space of Joy, gratitude and peace.

    “Sorry to blab on. But I know we are all dealing with some really heavy s**t at times. And I find listening to words from strangers comforting. So hopefully sometimes I can be that stranger to you guys.

    “Now every morning and every night before you go to bed. Say these words to yourself in the mirror. I’m gonna do it to. We are in this together. Hope you’re all having a gorgeous summer x (sic)”
