Selena Gomez My Mind and Me is a 2022 documentary based on singer/actress Selena Gomez's life both outside her celeb lifestyle and going in deep about her bipolar and anxiety. The documentary was filmed back in 2016 when Selena was releasing her album Revival and struggling with psychosis (which actually shocked me as I had no idea she suffered with this along with her battle with lupus). We also catch a glimpse of Selena when she was a little girl with her mom Mandy Teffey(who is the splitting image of Selena) and she had her during her high school days at the age of 16 along with her biological dad. If your a massive fan of Selena Gomez do give it a watch.

As a victim of Mental demon, This documentary tells more than explanation and imagination. Mental illness is so cruel, if you have physical problems with that...i can't even imagine that! She's so strong after all this. I always proud myself for being alive, in her case I feel more than that. She use her position rightfully to speak and support to millions for making all strong by saying YOU'RE NOT ALONE! The song itself broke anyone. Nov 3 eve 6pm(India) I heard for the 1st time in my bed...immediately my mind rewinding my past 2 years of dark times and never stop that song for 6 hours and cry endlessly throughout that time. It's my honest review people! I just say THANK YOU SO SO MUCH to do that❤

The most humble, nice and carrying celebrity I've seen. It makes you sad to see what she has to go through, medically speaking, but it also makes you wonder what's going on with the people she surrounds herself with. Saw the documentary and apart from her cousin and mother, none of them give you the impression they're really connecting with her. When she was being angry about the interview in London, they were all nodding, none was saying what he/she was really thinking like they were afraid to say something. It feels like they're afraid to lose their job so they just support her in doing things that at this point in her life don't make her happy. An hour and a half and you can only see happiness in her eyes when she's visiting her childhood places or Kenya. What do these 2 places have in common? Simple people, simple things, no glamour, nature. This is what she needs to get better, not boring interviews, not promos, not fashion shows, etc.

I will admit, I cried a few times watching this one. It was heavy and vulnerable in a way I wasn't even entirely prepared for. It was an extremely human documentary, not polished up with anything. Very little, almost no, sit down interviews and commentary about what we're watching unfold. Nobody is spoon feeding us their takes or opinions. We are just watching Selena go through all she went through, learning so much along the way. I've always liked Selena Gomez but I haven't been like her #1 fan. I'm happy to say I've never said one negative thing about her. And I'm glad, because she used this documentary to show why human beings need room to breathe and live their lives, celebrity or not. People have to get to make mistakes, struggle, get back up again, and be respected. Well done to the filmmakers of "My Mind & Me." The journal entry readings, the footage chosen, the way it was all left on the table, will all have an impact on me for a long time to come.
