"My relationship with social media is really poor," explained Beer. "I feel like I’m constantly anxious and feeling like I want to delete all my social media."

"It’s something I actually struggle with weekly, where I will have a thought: I don’t want to participate in any of that stuff anymore. Then I’ll go on TikTok, and I’ll see someone post a video crying about how much they love me and how excited they are for my tour. Okay, obviously this is what I would love to only ever see, positive, nice things like that," she continued.

"The reality is that’s not the truth, and I will always see a video that’s a hate video or some nasty tweet or whatever it is."

"Most girls my age are on TikTok and able to scroll and [have] it not be an issue," she said. "I have to sit and be worried that I’m going to see a f---ing mean video about myself. Obviously, it’s not the biggest issue in the world, but it still is something that’s hard, and it’s upsetting."
