Zach Bryan<\/strong><\/a> is opening up about reshaping his relationship with alcohol after recent mental health struggles.<\/p>\n

The country singer, 29, shared an emotional letter with fans via Instagram<\/a> on Tuesday, November 18, noting that he recently went on a motorcycle trip across the country and realized, \u201cI really need some f***ing help.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI was stuck in a perpetual discontent that led me to always reaching for alcohol, not for the taste, but because there was a consistent black hole in me always needing its void filled,\u201d Bryan wrote, adding that being thrust into the spotlight had \u201csome subconscious efforts on me as a person.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI had been lied about and doxxed on the internet, I was helping a close friend through a severe mental break, one of my other best friends was put into a coma by a motorcycle accident, and I was touring the country playing five, sometimes six nights a week,\u201d he continued. \u201cI was having earth-shattering panic attacks. The anxiety I felt was paralyzing and I thought since I was successful, had the money I always longed for, and had great friends, that I could tough anything out.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\tZach Bryan has faced a few public controversies since blowing up with the release of his album American Heartbreak. Bryan gained a following after he began releasing his own music online in 2017. He released two albums before 2022\u2019s American Heartbreak, his first record with a major label, skyrocketed him to the top of the [\u2026]\t\t<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

The \u201cSomething in the Orange\u201d singer<\/a> said he recently reached out to a therapist to help him with his \u201ctoxic relationship with booze and how I cope with major life changes.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI haven\u2019t touched alcohol for nearly two months now \u2014 something I had to do for my own personal clarity. I needed to see the world objectively,\u201d he wrote. \u201cMy family supported every step I took. Conversations about the future, kids one day, my health and [girlfriend] Sammy<\/strong>\u2018s happiness made me prioritize not only myself, but my entire family.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI feel great, I feel content, I feel whole. There is nothing I need to get me by anymore,\u201d Bryan continued. \u201cIf you or any of your friends are too tough, too scared or too stubborn to reach out, know that the most stubborn dumbass on the planet did and didn\u2019t regret it.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI don\u2019t believe in absolutes. One day maybe, I\u2019ll learn to [control] my habits, but for now, I just want to say it is okay to be weak at times and need help. God speed everyone! I pray this helps somebody,\u201d he concluded.<\/p>\n

Bryan further captioned the post, \u201cIn no way is this a greater-than-thou sentiment and I\u2019m aware I am one of the luckiest men alive. I pray people don\u2019t take this as me taking my blessings for granted.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI wanted to share this because I feel like a lot of people go through mental struggles at times and feel alone in them, which leads plenty to suffer in silence. Here\u2019s me on mental health. I hope it helps someone struggling to find words when they\u2019re down on their luck,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n
