Ariana Grande shared an image of a brain scan on Instagram purportedly showing she suffers from post-traumatic stress disorder after a terrorist attack on her concert in Manchester, England, in 2017.
"Hilarious and terrifying," Grande captioned the post, showing side-by-side comparisons of a healthy brain and a brain with PTSD as well as a separate image of a scan of her brain.
Grande revealed in an interview with British Vogue last year that she has been dealing with PTSD since the bombing.
"Didn't mean to startle anyone with my brain thingy," the pop star wrote in a subsequent post. "It just blew me away. I found it informative and interesting and wanted to encourage y'all to make sure you check on your brains / listen to your bodies / take care of yourselves too."
Grande indicated that she would talk more about her experience "when I'm feeling ready or when I'm more healed up."
