“I had like a mental breakdown and I had panic attacks live on television with Gayle King,” Meghan shared. “I was reading the nominees for the Grammy’s the year after I won and I was shaking and I was like, please don’t collapse on TV right now. We’re live. And as soon as they were like, cut, I fell and started scream crying and couldn’t breathe.”

Meghan continued: “And later, they took me away. I was supposed to do more work and they were like, ‘We’re done. This is it.’ It was because I had, I can’t say who but I had a lot of people tell me like, if you cancel on this 30 minute set, we’ll never play Meghan Trainor ever again. So I had everything. I had my Grammy, I had what people dream of for years.”

Meghan then revealed that she even went to the hospital because of a panic attack.

“I had everything I ever wanted, and they were threatening to take it away. So, my mind was like, no I’ll keep going, I’ll keep going. And my body was like, bye. And my body had to tell me, instead of me being able to take a break,” Meghan added. “Like the saddest thing is like, your whole team is in the hospital with you like, everything’s gonna be okay. And you’re like, like can’t talk. You cannot speak. So I was alone with my thoughts for way too long and I blew up. I freaked out and I freaked out for a long time.”
