Grammy award-winning singer Lady Gaga recently opened up about her struggle with depression and her challenging journey to love herself again.
In an emotional interview with Lee Cowan on CBS Sunday Morning, Gaga, 34, shared her inner battle with becoming her alter ego and missing her former persona as Stefani Germanotta.
“My biggest enemy is Lady Gaga, that’s what I was thinking. My biggest enemy is her. You can’t go to the grocery store now. If you go to dinner with your family somebody comes to the table, you can’t have dinner with your family without it being about you, it’s always about you. All the time it’s about you.” The Chromatica singer recalled.
The star revealed her latest album, Chromatica, offers a candid look at a dark time in her life, which included mental illness and trauma recovery. “There’s not one song on that album that’s not true, not one,” she told Cowan.
For example, Gaga said that the lyric “pop a 911,” is a reference to the medication she had to take when she used to panic because she is Lady Gaga.

Since the release of Chromatica, Gaga told Cowen that she’s “found a way to love [herself] again.”
“I don’t hate Lady Gaga anymore. Now I look at this piano and I go, ‘Ugh, my god, my piano, my piano that I love so much. My piano, that lets me speak, my piano that lets me make poetry. My piano that’s mine.” She shared.
The Grammy winner has been candid about how, for years, she focused on her music. She concentrated on her music career rather than work through the emotional and physical trauma she suffered after a s****l assault early on in the industry. She has said that before getting to work on Chromatica, she was struggling with PTSD(Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder) and fibromyalgia.
“I spent a lot of time in a sort of catatonic state of just not wanting to do anything. And then I finally, slowly started to make music and tell my story through my record.” Lady Gaga said.
