This is the motivational success story of Lady Gaga... Her Journey from chronic pain, depression and anxiety.. to an Oscar for A star is born.

“I had a boyfriend who told me I’d never succeed, never be nominated for a Grammy, never have a hit song, and that he hoped I’d fail. I said to him, ‘Someday, when we’re not together, you won’t be able to order a cup of coffee at the deli without hearing or seeing me.”

“When I speak about mental health, especially when I’m speaking about mine, it is often met with quietness. Or maybe, a somber line of fans, waiting outside to whisper to me in the shadows about their darkest secrets. We need to bring mental health into the light.”
Lady Gaga didn't have an easy childhood. At school she was bullied for her eccentric look. She was called a slut and was not accepted by her classmates.
When she was a teenager, she was sexually assaulted.I was raped when I was 16 years old. It took me 7 years — and being assaulted a second time — to admit to anyone that something happened to me. Had I known that people were talking about rape, and doing something about it, maybe I would have told someone sooner. At the very least, I would have felt less alone.
After the sexual assault, lady gaga says that she has been changed forever

In one speech she explained how she battles depression.
 "I have some sort of anxiety, depression, something, that's changed My whole life. I I take antidepressant medication for it. I have tried to get off of it. my doctor always tells me not to, that it's not safe for me to. whenever I've tried to, have gotten very neurotic, manic, sick.
 I started looking into Ayurvedic Medicine, I started looking into my mindfulness and meditation. I started looking into a mantra I do acupuncture I do cupping I I pray sometimes I make music I write poetry I am an actress now that's helped me a lot.

What helped me the most That I want to impress upon all of you, Is that I Realize that part of my identity is saying no, to The things I don't want to do.
I check in with myself throughout the day and I say do I really want to do this.And if the answer is no I don't do it,  and you shouldn't either.
Lady Gaga's rose from the ashes of her pain, bullying, rape, rejections, depression.. and culminated with her standing on stage and accepting an Oscar for her work in A Star Is Born.This is her acceptance speech:
“If you are at home and you’re sitting on your couch and you’re watching this right now, all I have to say is this is hard work. I have worked hard for a long time, and it’s not about winning. What it’s about is not giving up. If you have a dream, fight for it. There’s a discipline for passion: it’s not about how many times you get rejected or you fall down and get beaten up, but how many times you stand up, and are brave and you keep on going.”

"Depression doesn't take away your talents—it just makes them harder to find. But I always find it. I learned that my sadness never destroyed what was great about me. You just have to go back to that greatness, find that one little light that's left. I'm lucky I found one little glimmer stored away."
