"I did A Star Is Born' on lithium, the pop mega-star revealed, offhandedly, Rolling Stone said."
"There was one day that my sister said to me, I don't see my sister anymore,' Gaga told Rolling Stone. And I canceled the tour. There was one day I went to the hospital for psychiatric care. I needed to take a break. I couldn't do anything I completely crashed. It was really scary."
"There was a time where I didn't think I could get better, she continued. I feel really lucky to be alive. I know that might sound dramatic, but we know how this can go."
Lady Gaga achieved major public success in 2017, headlining the Super Bowl LI Halftime Show to 117.5 million U.S. viewers, performing at Coachella, launching the Joanne World Tour, and releasing the Netflix documentary Gaga: Five Two. During that period she began production on A Star Is Born while privately experiencing severe mental-health decline. She reported taking lithium and later described a psychotic break that led to hospitalization and cancellation of tour dates. She did not disclose a formal diagnosis, though lithium is typically prescribed for bipolar disorder. A Star Is Born premiered to critical acclaim and earned her an Academy Award nomination.
