ARIANA Grande has revealed her battle with post-traumatic stress disorder following the terrorist attack at her Manchester concert in May 2017, which left 22 people dead.
The singer, 24, admitted that while a year has passed since the horrific event, she still can't bring herself to talk about the attacks without bursting into tears.
Speaking about her pain to , she confessed: "It's hard to talk about because so many people have suffered such severe, tremendous loss. But, yeah, it's a real thing.
"I know those families and my fans, and everyone there experienced a tremendous amount of it as well.
"Time is the biggest thing. I feel like I shouldn't even be talking about my own experience - like I shouldn't even say anything. I don't think I'll ever know how to talk about it and not cry."
Ariana has been vocal about how the atrocity has psychologically impacted her and how she's found it difficult to open about it.
In a previous interview with The Fader, the No Tears Left To Cry singer said: "I guess I thought with time, and therapy, and writing, and pouring my heart out, and talking to my friends and family that it would be easier to talk about, but it's still so hard to find the words.
"When you're so close to something so tragic and terrifying and opposite of what music and concerts are supposed to be, it kind of leaves you without any ground beneath your feet."
Last month, on the anniversary of the attack, the singer paid tribute to the victims by getting a tattoo of a bee, the city's symbol, behind her ear.
She also held a candlelit vigil for those who lost their lives.
Last June, Ariana staged the One Love benefit concert - inviting her famous friends to perform for the shaken up city.
Stars such as Niall Horan, Katy Perry, Pharell Williams, Little Mix and Miley Cyrus took to the stage to pay their tributes.
In an act of generosity, Ariana invited everyone who attended her Manchester Arena concert to come for free.
