Joe Jonas is opening up about a difficult chapter in his career and how it changed his approach to mental health. During a recent conversation, he shared that the response to his 2011 solo album Fastlife left him struggling with self-doubt and anxiety.
As he explained, the album did not perform the way he had hoped, making him question his identity outside of the Jonas Brothers. He said the pressure eventually showed up physically, with panic attacks and unexplained pain that led him to seek medical help. After doctors ruled out a physical cause, one physician suggested therapy as the next step.
Jonas admitted he was hesitant at first, but he decided to give it a try. Over time, he found that talking with a therapist helped him better understand his emotions and manage the challenges that came with life in the spotlight.
He added that therapy has continued to be an important part of his life, offering support through personal and professional changes. By speaking openly about his experience, Jonas joins other artists who have encouraged honest conversations about mental health and the value of asking for help when it is needed.
