Selena Gomez: My Mind & Me

Welcome to Selena's mind; the uncertainty of her reality; the negativity of her existence as an artist; and the pain from health issues that also impacts her mental state of being. All bared in this observational documentary with private access to all areas of her life.

This is a soul baring journey through the darkness of fame, where your purpose in life diminishes and privacy is nonexistent. It is all smiles for the annoying paparazzi, adoring fans and silly questions from so-called journalists. Selena's state of mind was already in the darkness, but all of this just pushed it further down the rabbit hole toward the mad hatter's party.

An impactful and assuring piece on mental health, revealing that not all is immune to it, even the famous and creative fall victim, and fight the same battle within.

It was raw. It was emotional. It was honest. I applaud Selena for deciding to speak to the world in this way. I have always admired her for the many things she is and does. This movie took it to a whole new level. I've been battling with my own mental and physical health and knowing that it's gaining more visibility by people, it's becoming a bigger conversation, thankfully to Selena and people with her platform, it means a lot. Mental health pains is not a monster we should hide. What Selena is doing is important and so necessary. Every such conversation is a beat that keeps our hearts alive.

This was a tough watch at times, but I appreciated the raw and unfiltered nature. Selena has gone through a lot in her young life and it was fascinating to see an inside look at how she manages it all.

The diary entries written over the screen are a bit cheesy, but they provide another means of expression for Selena. There's also a lot of similar ground that's covered in most music documentaries, but the focus on mental health was a nice addition. Hopefully people will have a little more sympathy for famous people who struggle with the same things that normal do too. Obviously they have more means at their disposal, but the pain is the same.

I've been a fan of Selena ever since she was on Wizards, to see her grow, to see her glow, and to see her so vulnerable, so humble, so human is amazing, and really hard at the same time. I've never met her, but I kind of feel like I know her even better now, she is and will always be my idol, and biggest hero in this world. I'm so proud of her, and I love her unconditionally, not only is this the most unique documentary of a celebrity, it is also something that can really have a great impact on young people who's going through this. I cried during the entire movie, I'm so moved and relieved that you've shed some light of how big an enemy your mind can actually be! Nothing but love for her, and this amazing docu. If you ever see this Selena, know that what you do every day, and for everyone is lifechanging. You ARE good enough, and you desserve the entire world. Love you so much.

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.
