If you only share your best pictures, or your Facetuned self, the thought of people seeing you as you truly are can be scary.

It's very scary to allow the world to see you.

All my life, I've felt people are looking at me. So, when I became known, it was like, 'I'm not imagining this any more. People genuinely are staring at me. Oh, Christ, now they're coming over!'

It's a little dangerous for me to get outside myself and think about how I want people to see me.

The first time I went out under the spotlight, I was proper freaked out.

As a kid, I was scared of losing my mind. In Terrell, Texas, where I grew up, there was a guy that would walk down the street talking to himself. And I used to watch him and feel uneasy. And there was a sanitarium where people would say, 'That's where all the crazy people go.' It really sort of frightened me.

There was a point in time where the thought of people even talking about me made me anxious. Physically.

I wanted people to see me, to change their minds about me.

It's hard being visible, so I've made myself invisible.
