Justin Bieber shared another cryptic message on his Instagram Stories.

In the lengthy post, the Peaches singer, 31, wrote about feeling like he was drowning and unsafe.

The post – which was set to SZA’s I Hate U – ignited new fears for the Canadian pop star and his mental health. 

He wrote: ‘I was always told when I was a kid not to hate. But it make me feel like I wasn’t allowed to have it and so I didn’t tell anyone I’ve had it.

‘Which made me feel like I was drowning, unsafe to acknowledge it. I think we can only let hate go by first acknowledging its there,’ he continued. 

‘How couldn’t we feel hate from all of the hurt we’ve experienced,’ he concluded.

In recent weeks, Justin has left observers increasingly worried over his hollow-eyed appearance and his social media posts, including one of him smoking what looked like it could be a joint and another one of him pulling from a bong.

His latest concerning post comes just a few days after he said he felt ‘like a fraud’ and ‘unqualified most days.’

On Thursday, he hinted that he has imposter syndrome over his rapid rise to fame, writing: ‘People told me my whole life “wow Justin you deserve that.”

‘And I personally have always felt unworthy, like I was a fraud, like when people told me I deserve something.

‘It made me feel sneaky like, damn if they only knew my thoughts. How judgmental I am, how selfish I really am… They wouldn’t be saying this.

‘I say all this to say, if you feel sneaky, welcome to the club. I definitely feel unequipped and unqualified most days.’

Bieber sH๏τ to fame when he was just 15 after he was discovered on YouTube, signing to Usher’s record label.

His debut single Baby was released in 2010 and he has since become one of the best-selling music artists of all time, with an estimated 150 million records sold worldwide.

However, speculation over Bieber’s health has been mounting in recent months, after the singer stepped out looking hollow-eyed and in bizarre outfits, leading his representative to issue a statement denying he was on hard drugs.

Despite the worry, both the singer and wife Hailey, 28 – who share baby boy Jack Blues, seven months – have continued to brush aside the concerns over their relationship by stepping out together on recent outings and also appearing on each other’s social media pages.

Earlier this month on March 1, the singer celebrated his 31st birthday and uploaded an ᴀssortment of pictures to Instagram, including one as both he and Hailey held their son Jack.

Another image showed the model as she sweetly wrapped her arms around her husband as they seemingly sang karaoke.

A few days later, he sparked concern among fans once again when he shared pH๏τos of himself smoking from what appeared to be a bong.

In pH๏τos shared to Instagram, the star could be seen sitting on an e-bike as the track тιтled Hits From The Bong by Cypress Hill played in the background. 

Late last month, Justin’s rep addressed worries over his disheveled appearance in a statement to TMZ.

‘The recurring narrative that Justin is using hard drugs is absolutely not true,’ the rep said, adding that the performer is currently ‘in one of the best places in his life.’

The star is also ‘actively parenting his newborn son’ Jack with wife Hailey and putting focus into making new music . 

According to the rep, Justin has had a ‘very transformative’ year and ‘ended several close friendships and business relationships that no longer served him.’

Speculation about his appearance and marriage is ‘exhausting and pitiful and shows that despite the obvious truth, people are committed to keeping negative, salacious, harmful narratives alive.’

A source recently told DailyMail.com that while Hailey tends to ‘work all the time ,’ the singer instead prefers to ‘chill with friends’ and is more ’emotional and leads with his heart.’

The insider further explained that, ‘He is always working on music and toying with new ideas, he always has a guitar in his hand, he is super creative, but he does not work as much as she does.

‘Justin already has so much success behind him, he is comfortable, he doesn’t need to prove anything. She is the leader and he doesn’t mind following her.’

Another source informed Us Weekly late last month that, ‘Hailey is trying to be as supportive as possible. It can be hard for Hailey, but she’s always there for him and is understanding.’

The insider added that the singer does not focus on the recent speculation and fan concerns and instead puts his focus on parenting son Jack.

‘He is a really great dad to Jack and is very protective over him.’

One source also told Us Weekly that the music artist is ‘happier than he’s been in a long time.’

The insider stated that ‘there’s no breakdown’ and added that the singer simply ‘just really doesn’t care what people think.’
