Selena recently opened up about putting herself and her health above everything else.

Speaking to Harper's Bazaar about her battle with anxiety and depression, she said: "There won't be a day where I'm like, 'here I am in a pretty dress - I won!' I think it's a battle I'm going to have to face for the rest of my life, and I'm ok with that because I know that I'm choosing myself over anything else. I'm starting myyear off with that thought. I want to make sure I'm healthy. If that's good, everything else will fall into place."

Selena's big fat FU to society's ideals is literally everything, keep doing you girl.
