During an interview with The Scotty Kay Show Langley admitted that she has been struggling with her mental health. She admitted that the timing was interesting as she “should” be feeling great. She shared that she has had her worst week in a long time,ย “Which is crazy, because so many good things are happening. So many things I’ve prayed for and dreamed about,” she continued to say, “It’s just the disease of my family, really.”

The singer shared that she has decided to share her struggles because maybe other people are experiencing the same thing.

“I think it’s important to talk about it and to share that just because I might seem like I’m on the top of the mountain right now, it doesn’t look like that all the time.”

She said the only things that help are God and gratitude.

“I think it’s just about being grateful. At the end of the day, just spinning it back on being grateful for what God’s given me and this place that I get to be in.”
