Paris Jackson is putting rumors to rest about her current mental state, two weeks after she checked herself into a treatment facility to improve her “emotional health.” 

“Please don’t believe what you read,” she shared via Twitter. “Just because I was spotted grabbing coffee in LA after taking a nice long break from the chaotic media for some reason makes ‘journalists’ think they can run wild with my name. I said it before and I’ll say it again. I’m the happiest and healthiest I’ve been in a long time.”

The 20-year-old daughter of the late Michael Jackson took health matters into her own hands when she entered the facility in January.

A source close to the star told People magazine at the time: “After a busy year of work engagements that took her all over the globe, Paris decided that she needed to take some time off to reboot, realign and prioritize her physical and emotional health.” 

The insider added, “She checked herself into a treatment facility to aid in her wellness plan and is looking forward to coming out of this revitalized and ready to tackle the exciting new projects that await her.” 

A day later, Paris confirmed the news herself on Instagram, writing: “Yes I’ve taken a break from work and social media and my phone because it can be too much sometimes, and everyone deserves a break, but I am happy and healthy and feeling better than ever!”

The much-needed break was overdue. In 2013, Paris was hospitalized after attempting suicide. She later admitted during a 2017 interview with Rolling Stone that she attempted suicide a number of times.

We’re happy to she’s doing well!
