Britney Spears' fans are concerned for their idol after the singer took to Instagram this week to share a lengthy post about the aftermath of her conservatorship.
Last year, the 40-year-old 'Toxic' singer asked Judge Brenda Penny to terminate the controversial arrangement, which was set up by her father Jamie in 2008 at the height of her mental health struggles.
In November, Penny finally put an end to said arrangement, after more than a decade.
But several months on, Spears is still spilling the tea on what allegedly went on when her father controlled her financial, personal, and professional affairs.
In a since-deleted post - originally uploaded on Monday, August 22 - the 'Womanizer' hitmaker admitted that despite having had a taste of freedom for the best part of a year now, she still cries herself to sleep most nights.
She captioned the post: “It’s crazy… social media… everybody’s life seems so perfect and when I post things I think most of the time I’ve been utterly and completely embarrassed of my past… and who can forget those documentaries.
"So yes, I do try and post me looking my best or what it may seem to be the good life… well, the truth is, my spirits are better but I will forever be traumatized by my past experience for life."
She added: "There is no way to fix me, my emotions and my sensitivity… therapy, all of it !!! I think I will need some sort of miracle for my emotions.
“I cry myself to sleep most night… I’m insecure as hell… I don’t know how to have good posture unless I’m on camera and I need to go to a school just to be taught how to freaking walk.
"I know you say 'but you are a performer'... well that's it !!! It's an act on stage... in real life I have no clue... and I'm working on that !!!"
Needless to say, fans were devastated by the revelation, with one deeming it "so unfair".
Another chimed in to share how "heartbroken" Spears' post had made her. The user went on to write: "They killed her spirit, she’s by far the strongest human being on earth, i pray for her happiness. May they all rot in jail."
