Bella received a barrage of feedback from fans, but the tweet seemingly disappeared after she was hit with several nasty comments from trolls.

One wrote: "U can't jst [sic] come to a conclusion that u suffer frm [sic] depression...

"It's not just a random feeling like being sad or unhappy."

It comes just months after she opened up about her previous problems with online bullying as she received death threats from Internet trolls who thought she had cheated on a former lover.

She told People.com: "It’s hard. I was in a happier place [a while ago] than I had been recently...

"And now I’m back to a happier place...

"People take social media as such a big thing... And they think they know your life and they get their friends to trash you.

"[I] was getting death threats for a hot minute because they thought I had cheated on my ex, which is a total lie.”
