During the Behind The Music TV special, presented on the VH1 American television network, Aguilera admitted that she has found creative inspiration in the darkest moments of her depression.
She shares: "I do battle with depression. It’s something that is always right below the surface. And it’s almost seductive to go to a place of sadness and darkness… I’m truly thankful for the darkest times in my life."
