Justin Bieber's Downfall with Drugs and Health Issues: Selena Gomez's Role and Why He Chose Hailey Baldwin (As-A-Person part 2)
Gotham/GC Images
For some of you, seeing the title of this post may shock you. For veteran readers, you’re like “Oh a long awaited update.” Those who don’t read my blog frequently or would just rather stay in a comfy bubble of delusion, often have this idea that I favor Justin Bieber. Automatically, I can tell how long you’ve been reading or if you don’t read at all.
My 2013 and 2014 posts are known for dragging the hell out of Justin. Why? Because he did STUPID THINGS. Alongside that, I spoke a lot about his drug usage as well as his mental health struggles.
I didn’t plan for this to be a “Justin As A Person” post part 2, but it is. I just couldn’t stop writing and it turned into a whole life scan. Make sure to read the first part to this post.
Also, a reader brought to my attention that our 2017 post on Justin ^ described the theme of the 2019 Jailey wedding. Wow, the only powerful and accurate team. Our minds.
I’m going to reminisce on Justin's first experience with drugs and how he got into them while giving you an UPDATE on his past drug usage, something I haven’t really spoken about. This is all going to make sense soon.
Disclaimer: Everything is according to a source and their takeaway from this information unless stated otherwise.
Disclaimer #2: This post will mention Selena Gomez because as you’ll see from the timeline, she was his partner not only relationship-wise but drug-wise. This isn’t meant to blame anyone for any of his problems like some of you in the comments wrote when you used your 5 brain cells. This is meant to show you how people impact you especially if they have the same struggles as you. If you interpret this information as “well she’s saying Selena is at fault for Justin’s issues” then that’s on you. And tbh, to some extent, she is. People can either worsen us or better us. It’s up to us to see how we’ll let them.
2010-2012
I can’t speak for Justin’s life away from fame because no one can really vouch for that. When entering superstardom, celebrities often get introduced to drugs at elite parties, after parties, award shows, studios, basically anywhere they go.
Going into fame, Justin was very humble and that was one of the main reasons that people were emotionally attached to him. He had a very deep connection with his fans, his management, his friends, and his family; and he shared that with his fans which made the Beliebers, establish that deep connection. This all plays a part in Justin’s life in the following years.
Justin was living THE LIFE. He was hot, he wasn’t depressed, he had millions of dollars, he had a good relationship with everyone, and he was adored by millions.
Selena Gomez starts to play a huge part in Justin’s life here because she was in a big chunk of his life. However, enjoy this cute picture of PR-Jelena while they were friends and innocent aka before Crackhead Jelena.
During the Jelena relationship, Justin and Selena did casual drugs together. It was often “baby drugs” in the celebrity world. They smoked pot together, drank, and maybe did a couple of lines of innocent cocaine at a random party. Selena was more invested in the drug world here due to her time on Spring Breakers in which we revealed back in the Ice Age, that Ashley Benson allegedly got her into cocaine. Anyways, she’s not the focus of this post. Just understand that they did drugs together because ooooof, once we fast forward a couple of years later, the information is going to get crazy.

After the Jelena breakup, Justin was the definition of depressed and suicidal. I can confidently say that if it wasn’t for their nasty breakup, he would have been fine. Jelena didn’t break up in any normal way.
Justin proposed and Selena said no… that brought up trust issues and the question of “do you even really love me?” Mix that in with Selena’s insecurity, jealousy, and psycho ass, and it was a recipe for DISASTER.
When Justin and Selena were together, Selena had Justin on a leash for no real reason except for the fact that she could. What did that mean? Selena’s friends were Justin’s friends and Justin didn’t have his own squad nor could he run with his old same group of friends.

So when the breakup happened, Justin didn’t really have his true friends to fall back on because he chose his PR girlfriend over them. Sure they hung out and it wasn’t that big of a deal, but their relationship wasn’t the same. He basically spit on their existence for a couple of years, so it’s what he deserves.
The end of 2012 is when the downfall starts. Justin starts doing an excessive amount of weed. Contrary to popular belief, weed is a gateway drug. Doing that will slowly ease you into doing more and it’s a disgusting cycle from then on.
Justin starts not going a day without smoking weed. He started showing up to meet & greets for the Believe tour STONED and posing with fans as if they killed his family. He starts developing a rude and disgusting mindset which eventually leads to him losing his humble factor. He starts surrounding himself with the worst people on Earth who all served as enablers to him. He ended 2012 going to events stoned and wearing sunglasses to try to hide that, but he just got branded as a douche.

This is when we start entering the God-forsaken, Bizzle phase. Ugh, I’m getting shivers from when I used to write posts yelling at Justin back in the day.
Justin is mainly acting out at this point because Selena won’t take him back. If he could, he would cry and beg on the floor and that is what often happened. Selena thrived off of this pain. It made her feel invincible. It’s like “Yeah hoes, the Justin Bieber that you’re all dreaming about is begging for ME.” Selena fed off his pain and he fed off drugs because of his pain.
2013
This was arguably his worst year. I don’t think I had anything nice to say about Justin in 2013.
Justin: “breathes”
Us: “YOU’RE USELESS”
2013 shaped Justin. This is the year he stopped every strand of healthy relationships with anyone. He wasn’t speaking to his mother, Pattie, and she was too busy playing mom of the celebrity without filling the role. You may think I am being harsh, but the second Justin turned 18, they gave up on him. Pattie and Justin’s relationship finally started recovering a couple of years later, but they fell apart for two main reasons.
Pattie sided with Selena and believed her word over Justin’s. To him, he was like “My own mother doesn’t choose her son, no one would choose me —snorts a line.”
Justin’s parents signed what I called The Parent Contract with LA Reid at the beginning of his career. I don’t feel the need to go over that f-cked up scenario, so you can read down below.
Selena was Justin’s safe haven and he believed that “she got me” and understood him. In the midst of him feeling some sort of way about the Parent Contract, he went to her for reassurance. The gag is, she had something to win from The Parent Contract so Justin really has a flawed judgment. God, he angers me.
So when Justin didn’t have his mother or Selena, that worsened everything like crazy.
FilmMagic
He started doing harder drugs than weed. He experienced with party drugs like LSD, mushrooms, mixing cough syrup, and coke… you know all the fun stuff.
I’m not sure if he did the crazy sh-t in 2013 (heroin and meth), but we’ll get to that later. This is the part where his security team is checking his pulse throughout the night to make sure he’s breathing.
We all thought he was going to die.
At this point, Justin and Scooter aren’t talking to each other and no one can save Justin, but Selena. You think I’m exaggerating, but this spineless fool was self-inflicting pain on him, thinking someone would care.
His mindset?
“My mom hates me”
“My fans hate me”
“My management is done with me”
“My friends don’t care”
“The love of my life hates me”
“I’m better off dying”
I genuinely thought I’d wake up and write a “Rest in Peace, Justin Bieber” post in 2013. Again, this is all emphasized in my 2013 posts and CONFIRMED by Scooter and Justin in the following years.
Listen, if I write that a celebrity has a risk of dying, just know that the information I know is extreme. You think I’m joking when I write in 2019 that Selena is on her deathbed. No, I’m literally serious.
In 2013, Justin solidifies his role as a douchebag. He invests in some series drug dependency and starts his sex addiction. He’s surrounded by the worse people on Earth and there’s just never good news to report.
Only Ryan Good and Lil Za aren’t trash ^
He’s seen in brothels. He’s seen egging his neighbor’s house. He’s seen with a bunch of girls he’s sleeping with.
The sad part is, he was acting out in hopes that someone cares enough to come to save him from himself. Every time he would meet up with Selena, he would get worst.
In 2013, Selena starts getting addicted to cocaine and alcohol. So lemme paint a scenario.
Selena is high on coke and alcohol. Justin is high over god knows what drug of the hour he prefers. Selena gets even more of a high over Justin’s depression and obsession with her. Mix that both together = A DISASTER. I would call them a drugged-up version of suicidal Romeo & Juliet, but I save that name for them in a different year.
Jelena in 2013
Justin’s pain creates the album, Journals. We all knew that if Justin toured, he’d either OD or kill himself. Scooter is like over my dead body are you touring.
2013 ends on a shitty note for him and Selena.
2014
Selena’s drug addiction gets so bad she gets checked into rehab in January. If you’re delusional, you think she’s in a drug-oriented rehab facility for lupus.
We told yall first btw.
Justin is still suicidal and depressed.
Selena starts telling Justin that he’s the reason she’s into drugs. But if you ask me, this whole drama would be over if Selena accepted him back (because she ain’t want him to leave anyways), but she chose to play the manipulation game which only made her depressed and Justin depressed. Literally, neither of them won as we see in 2019.
If she didn’t want him back, which she didn’t, she should have let him down correctly. Not calling him up every hour and leaving him. Every time Selena would leave, Justin’s state would get worse. And when they were together, they were snorting lines instead of talking like a normal couple.
Justin spends 2014 even worst to the point where everyone thought he was going to die. You can go back and read my posts where I’m preaching and trying to get everyone’s attention to the fact that Justin is SUICIDAL and DOING SO MANY DRUGS, but what did I get instead?
“Lol you’re just jealous of Jelena! Bizzle is hot.”
Yeah, check out what Scooter had to say about Bizzle in 2014; in an interview conducted in September 2018.
Sometime in LATE 2014, Justin starts to find God. He starts to accept that Selena is a psychopath who’s playing him and he starts working on getting better. Justin wasn’t really “addicted” to drugs and this has to do with why he didn’t ever go to rehab. My sources say that he was more dependent on it than anything. He was able to wean off by finding his “purpose” and Jesus. He did drugs because he was self-medicating due to his depression and anxiety which is why when he started looking for a greater meaning in life, he was able to slowly limit his usage.
Would I say he was ever sober? Nah.
Here’s Scooter confirming our 2014 info in September 2017.
LMAO the number of paragraphs I wrote SCREAMING at Scooter. Poor us honestly. Trying to open everyone’s eyes a couple of years earlier!
In 2014, he starts getting super close with Hailey Baldwin and Kendall Jenner. They became like a trio and Justin dropped friends who were selling him out or drugging him, like Lil Twist and Chantel Jeffries.
The trio in December 2014
This is when Justin and Hailey start getting really close because he starts letting her in on everything and she chooses to make him better.
Selena? Getting worse by the hour.
2015
Justin finds his “purpose” which is why his whole 2015 comeback was about that. He made songs like “Life Is Worth Living” and “Purpose.” His love songs were more about Hailey than Selena.
At this point, he’s still struggling with mental health, but he’s weaned off the drugs slowly.
He’s finally doing better and it’s all good. He’s only tied down to Selena by the 2015 Jelena contract because this psycho keeps threatening to leak things on him.
You know when you finally get better and you’re reaching happiness, but the same people you hung out with that had bad habits like you, are still in that same circle?
That’s Justin and Selena in 2015.
She was still a drugged-up MESS, but Justin was healing and getting close to Hailey. She couldn’t have that so she was meddling his life through a contract, but she drinks her big medical karma later.
Overall, things are looking up for Justin.
2016
Justin’s trauma in the industry starts to catch up to him. He starts wanting to be treated like a human and leave his celebrity lifestyle behind. His fame brought him back to his fame in 2013. This is why he canceled the remaining few dates of the Purpose Tour and didn’t do meet & greets.
He stopped taking photos with fans and started preaching about “having a conversation.” I mean he wasn’t wrong.
The stress and anxiety of the tour had him in and out of old habits, but it wasn’t anything like 2013.
Hailey helped Justin overcome his issues with Selena and his mental health. She truly bettered him as opposed to y'all’s bitter beliefs. Since he was going to tour, Justin didn’t want to start a relationship with Hailey and then leave her for the tour. So what did he do? He sacrificed what they had together for the sake of the tour.
On tour, he quickly found himself going back to his old ways. Not necessarily the crazy 2014 drugs, but being on tour brought him stress and anxiety so he would be on prescribed medication to deal with that. He once again was like “I f-cked with Hailey, she deserves better” and then would medicate his pain. He was so lonely at this point. Here is when he also realized that he has some seriously deeply rooted issues that he needs to still heal, emotionally.
What does Justin turn to? Random models and sex as a distraction.
He later admits this in 2019.
This is the reason that Justin stayed celibate because he was just having sex just to have it. He started getting lost in an abyss of empty feelings in which he just felt numb.
At this point, Hailey is depressed over Justin doing her dirty like an idiot. She still tries to see the best in him, unfortunately. However, she starts seeing other guys and living her life.
Selena then cancels her tour because she’s so f-cked up and gets checked into rehab after meddling in Justin’s life with Sofia Richie.
Justin ends 2016 looking pretty good and is on vacation in 2016. He’s trying to do the whole self-care regimen.
AKM-GSI
2017
This year is kind of a quiet year for Justin and by quiet, I mean Justin really focuses on God, Hillsong (ew), and himself.
Selena is in a PR contract with The Weeknd, whom she’s also sleeping with. For a big part of 2017, Selena is occupied with Abel and leaving Justin alone since she has a new buddy to do drugs with.
Things are really looking up for Justin while Selena is deteriorating by the SECOND.
Selena gets so bad, she’s on prescription drugs to wean off the hard drugs, but at this point, she’s just mixing everything together. She gets so insanely bad she needs a kidney transplant because of uh.. right, “lupus.”
Selena’s contract with Abel ends and she runs back to Justin to bring him down in her ongoing spiral.
Jelena on October 29, 2017
What do Justin and Selena do best when together? Drugs. Any sort of progress Justin made is flushed down the toilet since Selena made no progress since 2013.
Together, they can open up an illegal drug market.
Somehow, they are on video BUYING CRYSTAL METH in an MS-13 hood in LA.
METH.
CRYSTAL.
CRYSTAL METH.
Watch the video for yourself:
Selena runs back to Justin on October 29, 2017, and literally 2 days later they are filmed BUYING METH and running away from the drug dealers?
We-
I can’t believe I spent 2014 yelling at them for doing hard drugs only for them to be on video buying METH. I need a break. I am so embarrassed by them.
Selena has no business bringing him down in the downward spiral with her.
As long as Justin and Selena stay together, they are doing all kinds of drugs. Cocaine? Weed? Oh please, that’s the beginner level. My source alleged that it’s more like METH and HEROIN.
Heroin is slowly easing its way into young Hollywood, but meth? It’s like Justin and Selena want me to explode.
2018
They continue being together until February 2018. Both are drugged-up messes. It’s like suicidal and drugged-up Romeo & Juliet.
February 21, 2018 // Backgrid
People love to say that the photos above are “goals” as if they didn’t end things less than 2 weeks later. Locals see a cute couple getting back together after times of hardship. Intellectuals see two psycho addicts worsening each other in their toxic cycle.
So both go their separate God-forsaken ways.
Justin, who was in contact with Hailey when he and Selena were together, as Selena was seeing other men while with Justin (they weren’t exclusive), got back together with Hailey.
Poor Hailey… cleaning the mess that she ain’t start.
SplashNews.com
According to many sources, Justin was on hard ass drugs.
This also explains why he was seen crying with Hailey. It’s not because he misses his drugged-up half. It’s because he was struggling with drugs and his mental health and then he felt like he was just causing Hailey stress and pain. It’s like the “she doesn’t deserve this, I’m useless” type of mentality.

Going back to the video of Drug-Jelena buying meth, Justin caused a lot of controversy in late 2018 when he was seen “tweaking.”
What is tweaking? Here’s a simple explanation that I found from a quick read on this website.
I know.. you’re all like… mETH?
Instead of “beyonce” it’s METH??????
The video that got everyone freaked out is the one down below.
It’s literally called “Justin Bieber Tweaking On Meth Again.”
Lord.
When I first saw the video, I was like… anyway. I honestly didn’t pay attention to it. I was like “weirdo” and I continued on with my day.
The fan who met him and actually hugged him in the video insists that he was fine and he was joking around with them. She says that he was imitating the baby or whatever.
However, y’all harassed me for not posting an update about Justin’s past drug usage so I looked into it. The reason I didn’t care enough to write a post is because my blog serves to expose what’s hidden. Justin doesn't try to hide his problems nor blame it on others so there’s not much exposing to do.
Also, we were all distracted by Jailey’s engagement and being legally married in 2018. And then you know, we took one of our many infamous breaks due to our friend randomly passing away.
Anyway, back to the video.
I’m not used to writing about METH, so I didn’t even know what the hell tweaking is. However, look at how it’s described by the center for American Addictions.
Intense scratching? That’s literally the video.
Here’s a closer look at what the action of “tweaking” is.
I’m not saying Justin is smoking meth every single day. I’m saying that according to the video, it looks like he’s on something which is speculated to be meth. I wasn’t with him that day so I can’t be like “he’s on meth in that video.”
Was it hard for me to accept when my source told me Selena does heroin? Yes. Was it hard for me to accept that Justin is possibly doing meth? Yes. This is some next-level shit and I will never be happy to report news of that manner.
Cocaine is like a side dish in the extravagant celebrity world of drugs, so I’ve gotten used to talking about it. However, celebrities have also gotten used to it which is why they look for something with a bigger high. Most stars that do heroin don’t shoot it up, but they snort it.

2018 was a very messy year for Justin because it started off with a drugged-up Selena in his life, then she left him to initiate more mind games, but he was left with the habits that he accumulated with her—I mean come on, on video buying METH? I still can’t get over it.
Justin is now having a mental breakdown and he’s like omg I’m gonna die. Hailey is like the savior in this whole situation.
She’s someone who cares so much and has no problem putting him first. Is Justin a lot of damn baggage? Yes. Can Hailey have had a simpler time with someone else? Yes. But honestly, you can’t choose who to love. And it shows you a lot that Hailey chose him when he was at his literal worst.

I mean… Bizzle? Probably an angel compared to Methstin.
It’s insane that some people hate on Hailey and say she’s making Justin depressed. If anything, Justin is the one who’s a lot to deal with, but I mean marriage is for better and worse. This also plays a role in why he proposed. That plus another detail, but anyway.
Hailey chose him at his worst. Selena left him for the expired games. None of them are getting younger and the drugs ain’t stopping. So a big part of Jailey had to do with Hailey basically saving Justin.
Hate on her all you want, tell me I kiss ass, even though Hailey is the definition of useless when it comes to providing info, but that’s the truth.
2019 - present
This is the year when Justin tries to repair the damage.
“I have been looking, seeking, trial and error — as most of us do — and I am now very focused on repairing some of the deep rooted issues that I have.”
- Justin Bieber, March 26, 2019 on Instagram
There’s a reason Justin came clean about his “hard drug usage” in his little Instagram essay that everyone twisted around to fit a false narrative. I’ve said this when talking about Demi Lovato and when talking about Selena.
The first step to healing is coming clean. A drug addict’s most notable trait is the ability to deceive and protect their addiction.
I said this to Selena in 2014 when she checked into rehab. I said it again when she went in 2016. I said it again when it was getting super bad again in 2017 and she got a kidney transplant.
Living a lie will not heal you.
Selena will never heal as long as she keeps up this act. What did Demi do when she got super bad again? Release Sober and come clean about the fact that she hasn’t been sober… like ever. What did Justin do when he went down that wormhole in 2018? Come clean about his past on Instagram.
Here’s his lengthy Instagram post from September 2019:
https://www.instagram.com/p/B17JfkkHEKt/
It honestly breaks my heart that people overlook Justin coming clean and sharing his story, by focusing on the “abused all of my relationships” part and turning it into something it’s not.
So what has this year been like for Justin? Healing. Recovery. Failing. Learning. And repeat.
ACKSON LEEGETTY IMAGES
I never said he was fully sober and from what I know about all these celebrities, I’m starting to believe that sobriety is not an option for anyone. But just in case my fave readers are reading: the Biebers and Gomez, I believe that hard work and the harsh truth is a step towards recovery.
I wanted to get this post up before Justin’s docu-series and his new era because I know he will talk about it, but like always, my readers get the detailed inside scoop.
Also, I know I talk about drug addiction harshly, but it is a serious topic that should be talked about more often in the celebrity world because 9 out of 10 of your faves are doing drugs.
While writing this post, I’ve been listening to “Fresh Pair of Eyes” by Brooke Waggoner on repeat and honestly: I’m sad. I wish everyone out there with drug addiction or dependency can seek help and find peace as we enter this new decade.
I hope you guys enjoyed this post and see you tomorrow for our final post in 2019… it’s a big one.
