Halsey is opening up about her health struggles she speaks about in her new song "The End."
The "Without Me" singer took to Instagram on Wednesday to share that she has been diagnosed with both systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and a "rare" T-cell lymphoproliferative disorder beginning in 2022.
"Both of which are currently being managed or in remission; and both of which I will likely have for the duration of my life," she added.
SLE is the most prevalent variant of lupus, a chronic autoimmune disease that can produce inflammation and discomfort in any part of the body, according to the Lupus Foundation of America.
According to the National Institute of Health, lymphoproliferative disorders refers to "a group of diseases characterized by uncontrolled production of lymphocytes that cause monoclonal lymphocytosis, lymphadenopathy and bone marrow infiltration" which often occurs in immunocompromised individuals. They can include leukemia and lymphoma.
"After a difficult start, I steadily got everything under control with the aid of outstanding physicians. After 2 years, I'm feeling better and I'm more appreciative than ever to have music to turn to," Halsey further explained. "I can't wait to get back where I belong: With you all ???? Singing and screaming my heart out."
The singer said in the post she was revealing her diagnoses following the "unbelievable amount of love" she received for her new song "The End," which she released the day prior.
Halsey shared an emotive Instagram post on Tuesday, writing in the caption: "long story short, i'm Lucky to be alive. brief story lengthy, i wrote an album. it commences with The End. Out now."
The post signaled the debut of their new composition "The End."
Halsey's post also labeled accounts for the Lupus Research Alliance and the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society, two organizations to which they are making donations, according to a press release.
In the first video included in the post, Halsey said she feels like "an old lady" and that she's giving herself "two more years to be sick."
"By 30, I'm having a rebirth and I'm not gonna be sick and I'm gonna look super hot and have lots of energy and I'm just gonna get to re-do my 20s in my 30s," she added.
The next video featured Halsey donning a disguise and seated in what appears to be a medical facility, saying, "Today is Day 1 of treatment."
In the final video, the singer shared a montage of their experience throughout their treatment.
"The End" takes listeners on a journey through Halsey's health struggles, as she sings: "Every couple of years now, a doctor says I'm sick / Pulls out a brand new bag of tricks / And then they lay it on me / At first it was my brain, then a skeleton in pain / And I don't like to complain, but I'm saying sorry."
"When I met you I said I would never die / But the joke was always mine, 'cause I'm racing against time," Halsey sings at the conclusion of the song. "And I know it's not the end of the world / But could you pick me up at 8 / 'cause my treatment starts today."
The singer, who has a 2-year-old son named Ender, has been vocal about her numerous health struggles through the years, including her experience with endometriosis.
