She recently had her say while speaking to the press, and fans have been reacting.
According to her, she actually dealt with the painful memories that early stardom left her with by seeking therapy to drive her back to a good place.
Miley added that she found it really tough to prove to people that she was her own person, and not the character she was playing.
Her words, “When I look back at the criticism I received as a child, it has only been these last few years that I have understood just how wrong that was.
I am a great believer in therapy to help heal painful memories and I am in a good place – but the reality is, it should never have happened!
I am not an attention-seeking person but I had a point to prove that I was my own person and not a character I had been playing. I wouldn’t erase any part of my story or my transition – I always think it an interesting life makes for interesting storytelling.
I was honest with my fans about struggling with depression, and I know that has encouraged some of them to get help with the issues that they may be facing. That gave me a real purpose, a reason to get up in the morning. When you are open and honest, that becomes a part of who you are – and organically that is going to be reflected in your songwriting.”
“Don’t Google yourself – I am being totally serious, don’t Google yourself! People are so ready to talk about the dangers of drink and drugs for your people in the industry – but there isn’t enough warning about the internet. It can be a truly toxic place!”
