Katy Perry says she wrote many of her biggest hits 'in the worst place' of her life

Katy Perry’s songs have served as the soundtrack for happy moments for her fans, so it may come as a surprise that many of her hits, such as Firework and Roar, were born from what she calls "dark times." She joined q's Tom Power to reflect on her career and her new single, Daisies. cbc.ca/1.5628294

Katy you are not alone you have real fans like me that are never leaving your side. Just know that no matter what change you make for the better of yourself or anything you are amazing and we love you. I'm so sorry you feel this way Katy, I'm glad you made it out and found the light through difficult times. One thing people don't understand is being a pop star or artist is not easy there are many variables to balance and you really lose control of who you are as a person. I'm very excited to hear how you got your smile back and all the positive changes you made, keep inspiring people and healing them through difficult times with your music.

my superhuman, her music got me through the toughest times. I’ll forever be grateful for the things she’s taught me throughout the years and the things she’s made me aware of. She (and no other human being) deserves to ever go through any type of mental illness
