Selena Gomez’s Alleged Drug Problem Escalates: Is She Fighting With Taylor Swift Now?

Selena Gomez’s life doesn’t seem to be going too well at the moment — or so it seems. There have been reports that Selena Gomez has fallen victim to a serious drug problem.

Radar Online has reported that Selena Gomez is living “off the grid” and that her friends and family have not been able to reach her.

“Those I’ve been talking to say they haven’t heard directly from Selena in a few days — she’s either already in rehab or has shut off her phone,” a source close to Selena told Radar exclusively.

The sources have gone on to say that Selena Gomez’s own mother is unreachable at the moment.

There is some really worrisome rumor that says that Selena may have started to use drugs such has “Lunesta, Ambien, Klonopin, and Xanax.” The sources have gone on to say that her friend Christina Grimmie’s death has also led her into depression.

“Selena wasn’t the same after that,” an insider told Radar. “She was definitely depressed — it was obvious.”

It’s true that the death of a close friend is the most worrying thing of all. However, do you think Selena Gomez is right in leaning on drugs to solve her problem?

The fact that Selena Gomez has lupus hasn’t helped, either. However, the sources have claimed that Selena Gomez may have used lupus as an excuse for too long.

However, the sources have gone on to say that Selena Gomez is also using Lupus as an excuse at the moment.

“She is using this as an excuse for everything lately and the truth is that she is just a mess right now,” explained a source. “She has been feeling completely alone lately.”

However, the Hollywood Gossip has gone on to quote Selena Gomez and say that lupus has effects different people in different ways.

“I’ve discovered that anxiety, panic attacks and depression can be side effects of lupus, which can present their own challenges.”

Selena Gomez also went on to give a statement that said that she is committed to maintaining her “health and happiness” and that she is looking to take some time off.

“I know I am not alone by sharing this,” she concluded, and “I hope others will be encouraged to address their own issues.”

Do you think Selena Gomez has taken a break due to her personal troubles or there is an underlying drug problem here?

It’s not unlikely to see health issues affect personal life as well and that’s what seems to have happened in Selena Gomez’s case. It’s true that despite her amazing career, Selena hasn’t been quite lucky in her love life and that’s one of the reasons Taylor Swift and she aren’t really the BFF they used to be. The J-14 magazine has said that Taylor Swift dished out some not so sensitive advice to Selena Gomez. Taylor told Selena to take a break from dating and concentrating on her work. However, Taylor is seldom seen taking a break from the relationships herself. Has this hypocrisy set Selena Gomez off and led to the tension between the two?

“Selena’s advice was to take a break from men and to spend some time enjoying being single,” the source continued.

Taylor told her to keep “focusing her energy in the studio, and dropping a new album before another boyfriend pops up.” Well, that seems like advice that Taylor Swift is definitely not taking. Do you think it was right on Taylor Swift’s part to give a suggestion she wouldn’t take herself?
