It was not an easy phase for her and has a deep impact on her creative process, which was of more concern as she was working on her album ‘The Great Impersonator’.

The ‘Badlands’ fame continued how, after knowing about her health issues, she was mentally disturbed and it affected her thought process
“I’m always writing about conflict and tragedy and transgressions, and I felt that I didn’t have anything to write about. The universe was like, ‘Yeah? What about this?’,” she shared, adding that doctors warned her that her career as an artist could create a problem for her during the recovery phase. ‘If you want this to go away, quit your job,” she shared on what the doctors advised her.
During the making of her album ‘The Great Impersonator’, Halsey was going through a philosophical thought process.
As she shared, “If I spawned in any other decade, or any other parallel universe, does it always go this way? Do I always end up Halsey? If I end up Halsey, do I always end up sick? I was playing out these alternate realities.”
She also shared details about her health status on her Instagram handle during the promotion of her single, ‘The End’. “I realize everyone is catching up with news I’ve held in for a very long time, and I wasn’t sure how much I wanted to share,” wrote the singer.
“In 2022, I was first diagnosed with Lupus SLE and then a rare T-cell lymphoproliferative disorder. Both of which are currently being managed or in remission; and both of which I will likely have for the duration of my life,” she added, reported People.
