On March 13, he shared an especially revealing message about his internal battles with self-worth.

“People told me my whole life, ‘Wow, Justin, you deserve that,’ and I personally have always felt unworthy,” he admitted.

“Like I was a fraud. Like when people told me I deserve something, it made me feel sneaky like, ‘Damn, if only they knew my thoughts,’” he continued.

“How judgmental I am, how selfish I really am, they wouldn’t be saying this. I say all this to say—if you feel sneaky, welcome to the club. I definitely feel unequipped and unqualified most days,” he added.
