Fantasia Barrino Drops By “Good Morning America”

She’s been dealing with the aftermath of her suicide attempt earlier this month, and this morning (August 24) Fantasia Barrino made an appearance on “Good Morning America.”

The “American Idol” champ talked about her struggles and the pressures that drove her to try and end her life.

"I think I was just overloaded with everything, with carrying six years of so much. I always take a licking and keep on ticking...it just became heavy for me to the point that I just wanted to be away from the noise."

"There's so much that people don't understand. They just see the glitz and the glamour, and they feel like life is so perfect, but we're human and we go through things.”

"I think everybody feels like I tried to harm myself over a man, but you know I've been in a lot of bad relationships. I think that had somewhat to do with it because it was so heavy, it was brand new information, I was already going through so much. But I think it was just six years of everything, of me holding all that stuff on the inside and not letting it out...I got very, very tired."
