Grammy Award-winning Christian artist Lauren Daigle recently discussed going through a dark time regarding her mental health as she rose to stardom and faced stress during the pandemic. The 31-year-old singer opened up in an interview with People Magazine <\/em>about how music helped her through mental health troubles and influenced her latest album, \u201cMy Whole World Fell Apart.\u201d<\/p>\n

In 2015, Daigle rose to fame when her song \u201cHow Can It Be\u201d reached number one on the Billboard Top Christian Albums chart. She also had three additional number-one songs on the Billboard Christian Airplay chart, \u201cO’Lord,” “First,” and “Trust in You.”<\/p>\n

Daigle’s 2018 album “Look Up Child” debuted at number three on the Billboard 200 chart, reaching the masses and becoming the highest-charting Christian album produced by a woman in over 20 years. However, after rising to fame, Daigle remembered having a battle with her mental health that came from a combination of “disappointment with grief and loss and the state of the world.”<\/p>\n

She said, “I felt like I didn’t know myself anymore. I started developing panic attacks. I found myself at rock bottom. Daigle said part of her healing journey included making music as an outlet to channel her pain, writing the song “Thank God I Do” during her mental health battles. She continued, “I’d just be writing songs or coming up with different melodies and lyrics, and I remember thinking, ‘This is different than what people have known of me in the past, but not different from myself.'”<\/p>\n
