Christian singer and songwriter Lauren Daigle, 31, recently revealed that her rise to fame brought with it a dark period of mental health struggles.

In 2018, Daigle’s album Look Up Child, which featured her hit single "You Say," debuted on the Billboard 200 chart at No. 3. It was the highest-charting Christian album released by a woman in more than 20 years. Since then, Daigle has also won two Grammy Awards.

“When I was 16 I had this vision of that tour, and I could see the crowds, the lights — everything. Then it all dismantled,” Daigle told People, explaining how the 2020 coronavirus pandemic greatly affected her mental health.

“You combine the disappointment with grief and loss and the state of the world,” Daigle continued. “I felt like I didn’t know myself anymore. I started developing panic attacks.”

Daigle said the identity crisis left her in a dark place: “I found myself at a rock bottom.”

As part of her journey toward mental health recovery, Daigle said she used music to channel her pain, writing new songs, such as "Thank God I Do."

"I'd just be writing songs or coming up with different melodies and lyrics, and I remember thinking, 'This is different than what people have known of me in the past, but not different from myself,'" Daigle explained.

Last week, Daigle released her self-titled album through mainstream label Atlantic Records, in partnership with Centricity Music.

"For all the fans that have been with me in my journey from the very, very, very beginning, this is no different than a "You Say" moment for me. These are other little pieces of me that you're now going to get to learn of as well."

Daigle described her latest album as a mix of “soul and spirit.”

"There's this Bible verse that says, 'The word of God is alive and active, sharper than any two-edged sword. It can cut through bone and marrow, soul and spirit.' And I'm like, 'The soul and spirit, they're so intertwined,'" Daigle said.

"Once this started to happen,” she continued, “I was like, 'That would be a song that I would write from the soul for the soul, and this is a song that I'd write from the spirit for the spirit; these songs of heartache and longing and difficulty and joy and newness and all that, they're coming from this soul lane, but there's these other God songs that are also me as well."

She called it a “rebirth process.

"My whole world fell apart, and I had to learn how to find myself again."
