Sinéad O’Connor is getting help. The 53-year-old “Nothing Compares 2 U” singer revealed on Twitter that she will be seeking treatment for trauma and addiction. “I had a very traumatic six years and this year was the end of it but now recovery starts.

This year I lost someone beloved and has affected me so badly that I became briefly addicted to a drug other than weed,” she explained. “I grew up with a lot of trauma and abuse.

I then went straight into the music business. And never learned really how to make a normal life. Never took proper time to heal.

Wasn’t ready to either,” she added. Back in 2017, she appeared on Dr. Phil to talk about the sexual, emotional and physical abuse she faced as a child from her mother.
