Bieber also revealed that he’d abused the anti-anxiety drug Xanax, The drug can cause feelings of euphoria, but it also can worsen depression if taken in the wrong doses.

“I found myself doing things that I was so ashamed of, being super-promiscuous and stuff, and I think I used Xanax because I was so ashamed,” said the singer. “My mom always said to treat women with respect. For me that was always in my head while I was doing it, so I could never enjoy it. Drugs put a screen between me and what I was doing. It got pretty dark. I think there were times when my security was coming in late at night to check my pulse and see if I was still breathing.”
