He explained that his decision came after the realisation that it is important to take care of himself holistically.
“I felt like I exercise every day and take care of my body, so why wouldn’t I do that with my mind?” he told the publication.
He says therapy has been key in helping him understand his emotions.
“So many of your emotions are so foreign before you start analyzing them properly. I like to really lean into [an emotion] and look at it in the face. Not like, ‘I don’t want to feel like this,’ but more like, ‘What is it that makes me feel this way?’"

He also addressed the online abuse aimed at him and his girlfriend Olivia Wilde, who he started dating in January 2021.
The two have been criticized for the ten-year age difference between them because Styles is 28, while Olivia is 38.
Styles says social media users can be toxic.
He says some Twitter users are “a s**itstorm of people trying to be awful to people”.
