Jessie J, real name Jessica Cornish, took to Instagram on Saturday to share the news with fans
Singer Jessie J has announced her diagnosis with obsessive compulsive disorder and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder .
In an Instagram post, she said: "Hello. I was diagnosed with ADHD and OCD about 3 months ago. In telling people a lot of the reaction I got was 'Yeah I mean we knew that' and of course I knew to some extent but having a baby has let's say... exposed it a lot more which was comforting in a way, as it made it feel less heavy and scary. But also in moments has made me feel like I can't talk about it. F*** that. Here I am talking about it.
Jessie, whose full name is Jessica Cornish, added: "It's weird when you know you have been a little different and felt things differently your whole life, and finally one day when you least expect it, someone really explains why and you can't avoid it." "It's made me re think about my whole life," she said. "The way I've been, the way I deal with things. The relationships I have had. How I work and how I love. It's empowered me and honestly sometimes has overwhelmed me all at the same time.
