Hailey Bieber (n\u00e9e Baldwin) doesn’t want your bad energy in her new decade.<\/p>\n

To mark the beginning of 2020, the model took to Instagram to write a lengthy, honest post about the impact trolls can have on her mental health, saying that she can pretend the negativity doesn’t bother her but that it, of course, hurts to be “compared to other human beings every single day” and “to feel like you don\u2019t measure up to a certain standard.”<\/p>\n

Sharing a photo of the ocean, Bieber started her post by writing, \u201cI would say my most favorite part of existing is human connection. I absolutely love connecting with other people, I love finding common interests between me and others, hearing people\u2019s story, I love laughing with others, and I love crying with others. I feel so very very deeply.”<\/p>\n

\u201cMy heart explodes with happiness when my friends and family are happy and my heart feels crushed when they are hurting and sad,\u201d she continued. \u201cThe reason I say all of this is: because I love to connect, I do my best to expose my heart which means I love freely and I empathize deeply, and because of that I also hurt very easily when I feel like people don\u2019t see my heart and see me for who I am.\u201d<\/p>\n

Bieber then explained that \u201cthe reason I\u2019m even sharing this, is because Instagram, Twitter etc is SUCH a breeding ground for cruelty towards each other, and because people don\u2019t take the time to connect with each other on an honest level before they resort to hatred, it starts to damage what could be really beautiful human interaction and connection.\u201d<\/p>\n

I would say my most favorite part of existing is human connection. I absolutely love connecting with other people, I love finding common interests between me and others, hearing people\u2019s story, I love laughing with others, and I love crying with others. I feel so very very deeply. My heart explodes with happiness when my friends and family are happy and my heart feels crushed when they are hurting and sad. The reason I say all of this is: because I love to connect, I do my best to expose my heart which means I love freely and I empathize deeply, and because of that I also hurt very easily when I feel like people don\u2019t see my heart and see me for who I am and the reason I\u2019m even sharing this, is because Instagram, Twitter etc is SUCH a breeding ground for cruelty towards each other, and because people don\u2019t take the time to connect with each other on an honest level before they resort to hatred, it starts to damage what could be really beautiful human interaction and connection. I could sit here all day and say the hate doesn\u2019t bug me, that the words that are said don\u2019t affect me. But NEWS FLASH: it hurts to be torn apart on the internet!!! It hurts to be compared to other human beings every single day, it hurts for people to jump to conclusions and make assumptions. It hurts to be called names, and to feel like you don\u2019t measure up to a certain standard.. the list goes on and on. I share this only because it weighs often on my heart and because it\u2019s important to be honest about how these things affect us mentally and emotionally. Hopefully it speaks to someone struggling with the same. with that being said Happy New Year. Let\u2019s connect more in 2020 \ud83d\ude42<\/a><\/p>\n
