Selena Gomez recently came together with her BFFs Nicola and Brooklyn Peltz Beckham for a conversation about mental health—and the toll the public eye can have on it.

"I think we definitely both get anxiety," Nicola shared with Wondermind, the mental health organization co-founded by Selena, in a conversation published May 31. "I definitely get anxiety and I think that's something I really struggle with."

Online criticism especially impacts her.

"If they comment on my appearance and stuff, that doesn't bother me," the 28-year-old said. "But what really bothers me is when they say something that's so untruthful and it's just a blatant lie, and I want to respond and just say like, 'That's just not true.'"

While Nicola said she tries not to pay too much attention to these comments, she acknowledged it isn't always easy.

"That hurts my feelings, truthfully," she continued. "But I try to ignore it. It's just hard sometimes to ignore it, especially when you see it all the time. It's just always in your face. It's just a part of what we live every day."
