The singer, who originally rose to success as a country music artist at the age of 13, shared a snippet from her Spaceship music video with a moving message.
Sharing the video on her Instagram page, LeAnn noted how she had been in two minds whether or not to reshare the clip alongside a lengthy caption about suicide prevention.
“I’ve been debating whether to reshare this post today, but I think one of the most powerful things we can do is reveal our vulnerabilities and allow others to witness our shadow,” she penned in the caption.
“This, in turn, can create a much deeper level of connection and help us to feel less alone in this world,” LeAnn, who has always been open about mental health, added.
“And by sharing this song, these lyrics, the visuals so beautifully captured by @eddiecibrian, it allowed SO many of you to share your stories and struggles through comments, private messages, and in person… ” she continued.
LeAnn then said that even to this day, she will discover new messages “of defeat, survival and triumph on this song”, adding, “and if resharing this video today helps just one person feel less alone, then it is 10000% worth it”.
She concluded, “If you are reading this today, on world suicide prevention day, I LOVE YOU!!!
“You are SO worthy of love and we need you here. let’s keep those spaceships where they are for now.”
Signing off, she urged, “Help is available 24/7 @988lifeline #worldsuicidepreventionday.”
In the video, which was shot for her song Spaceship and its accompanying music video, LeAnn can be seen walking through a mountainous area.
The song for the video has some moving lyrics in it, such as “How much pain can we bear being human?”

MENTAL HEALTH STRUGGLES
LeAnn has always been open and honest about her mental health struggles, with her opening up about it in 2022.
Speaking to Insider at the time, LeAnn recalled “showing up onstage with a 104-degree fever” as a teen and “vomiting backstage” before going on.
“I fainted backstage at 14. I’ve had to walk off a couple of times on stage and just be like, ‘I can’t finish the show,'” she admitted.
She also added: “Being in the public eye from the time I was very young and having to override my humanness I think was a huge part of my experience with anxiety and depression and what was triggering it.”

The poor girl shot to fame so fast, and you know that has to be hard for a 13 year old (at the time) to process. It seems like she has struggled since then. I feel like she is a sweet person and I wish her the best. I know she will be a beacon of light and an inspiration to so many.
