Gomez opened up to PEOPLE at her second-annual Rare Impact Fund Benefit in Los Angeles.
For Selena Gomez, companionship is everything.
Speaking to PEOPLE on the red carpet of the Rare Impact Fund Benefit at nya Studios West in Los Angeles on Thursday, Oct. 24, the “Calm Down” singer shared which practices she has in place to protect her mental health.
“Try not to isolate,” Gomez, 32, tells PEOPLE exclusively.
“I think it’s important to have moments alone,” she continues. “But when you isolate, sometimes those feelings can just stay bottled up.”
Instead, it’s best to “find one person to trust and tell your heart to” — and make sure “you can actually trust them with that information.”
Gomez concludes, “It really does help to share.”T he second-annual benefit aimed to “raise awareness and funds in support of youth mental health globally,” according to the Rare Impact Fund’s website.
Donations from the event supported the organization in expanding mental health resource access for young people.
“This is probably the most important thing I do with my time,” the Only Murders in the Building star says. “And it’s not just this event, it’s constantly, every day showing up for people.”
