In an interview with British Vogue, singer Adriana Grande opened up about her struggles with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).
She told British Vogue she struggles with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) following the attack. "I know those families and my fans, and everyone there experienced a tremendous amount of it as well," she said. "My anxiety has anxiety... I've always had anxiety.
She'd always had anxiety, she said, and she never talked about it, but when she got home from her tour, it was the most severe it had ever been. Symptoms of PTSD include flashbacks, intrusive memories of the traumatic event, panic attacks and nightmares as they relive the trauma, according to WebMD.
Problems regulating emotions, including chronic sadness, anger, or suicidal thoughts. Negative self-perception, including feelings of guilt, shame, or powerlessness. Dissociation from reality, including loss of memory, flashbacks, or periods of feeling disconnected from one's mind or body.
Women are more likely to develop PTSD than men. Certain aspects of the traumatic event and some biological factors (such as genes) may make some people more likely to develop PTSD.
Women are more likely to develop PTSD than men. About 8 of every 100 women (or 8%) and 4 of every 100 men (or 4%) will have PTSD at some point in their life. This is in part due to the types of traumatic events that women are more likely to experience—such as sexual assault—compared to men.
Background: Women have a two to three times higher risk of developing post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) compared to men.
Women with PTSD may be more likely than men with PTSD to: Be easily startled. Have more trouble feeling emotions or feel numb. Avoid things that remind them of the trauma.
Can complex PTSD be misdiagnosed as autism? Yes, the two conditions have many overlapping symptoms and may occasionally confuse each other. A clinician could misinterpret why the child isn't communicating well and connecting with others.
During the vocal first aid kit reveal, Grande advocates that bromelain helps with swollen vocal cords caused by singing, yelling or even just talking.
Ariana Grande has kept her experiences with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and anxiety after the 2017 Manchester bombing pretty private.
Ariana joked that there was “nothing more unfair than an Italian woman developing an allergy to tomatoes in her mid-twenties.” A tomato allergy is a type 1 hypersensitivity to tomatoes. Type 1 allergies are commonly known as contact allergies.
“I know those families and my fans, and everyone there experienced a tremendous amount of it as well,” Grande said of suffering the symptoms of PTSD. “I feel like I shouldn't even be talking about my own experience – like I shouldn't even say anything.”
“I feel everything very intensely and have committed to doing this tour during a time in my life when I'm still processing my humanness … so sometimes I cry a lot! I thank you for accepting my humanness,” she explained.
Grande was diagnosed with PTSD in 2017, just months after a man walked into the Manchester Arena and detonated a bomb at her concert, killing 22 people and injuring many others.
While she continued her “Dangerous Woman Tour” after the bombing, Grande dealt with post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and anxiety. In an interview with British Vogue, Grande stated that she did not think that she would ever be able to talk about the bombing without crying.
The pop star has been following a vegan diet for years, but the source said Grande has "taken it to extremes." "She subsists on the bare minimum - like smoothies, kale, seeds, nuts, broccoli and tofu," the source added.

The songstress has been vegan since 2013. As she explained in an interview published in December 2014 in The Mirror, she made the switch because of her love for animals.
Though health was a big motivator for Ariana, so was her consideration for animals. "I love animals more than I love most people, not kidding," she told The Mirror. "But I am a firm believer in eating a full plant-based, whole-food diet that can expand your life length and make you an all-round happier person.
Eilish discussed everything from being diagnosed with Tourette syndrome when she was a kid to her history of self-harm and her anxiety about touring. "I just couldn't take the fact that I had to leave again," Eilish said of preparing for a recent tour. "It felt like an endless limbo. Like there was no end in sight.
Ariana Grande cried during Monday's episode of NBC's "The Voice" as she eliminated a contestant. She was forced to choose between team members Bella Denapoli and Katie Rae during the battle rounds. "Oh God, I hate this so much," she said, adding, "I literally talked to my therapist about this."
She typically starts her day with a smoothie or oatmeal, and she often snacks on fruits, vegetables, and nuts throughout the day. For lunch and dinner, she enjoys a variety of vegan dishes, such as sushi, stir-fries, and salads. She also drinks plenty of water and green juice to stay hydrated.
Not only did the pop star struggle to follow the rules when it came to contacting her team, but she also didn't seem prepared for the mental toll that the show would take on her as an artist. Ariana held out hope due to her remaining father/son duo, but they were wiped out in the semi-finals, and all was lost.
