Ariana Grande is opening up about her mental health.

In her Instagram Story on Thursday, the 25-year-old "Thank You, Next" is a shared scan of her brain that shows her levels of PTSD. Though it's unclear when and in what context the scans were taken, many are attributing them to the aftermath of the Manchester bombing in 2017 where more than 20 people died following Great's concert.

The post-dated side-by-side scans of two brains, one that's healthy and one that suffers from PTSD. The affected brain had highlighted regions that the healthy brain did not. Next, Great shared an image of her brain, which had many more areas than both healthy and PTSD examples she gave.

Great called the scans "hilarious and terrifying," but cautioned that the post was "not a joke."

In a July interview with SHE, Grand opened up on how she coped after the Manchester bombing.

"When I got home from tour, I had really wild dizzy spells, that feeling like I could not breathe," she said. "I would be in a good mood, fine and happy, and they would hit me out of nowhere. I've always had anxiety, but it had never been There I was a couple of months straight where I felt so upside down. "

Just a month later, in an interview with Ebro Darden Beats 1, Great discussed how to become "permanently affected" by Manchester attacks.

"We see this on the news. [And] you feel bad, you tweet [about] it, you post a picture, you send your condolences, you say something and then you move on, "she said."[But] people are permanently affected by this sh * t. "

"Mental health is so important." People do not pay enough mind to it because we have things to do, "she added. "We have schedules, jobs, kids, places to be, pressures to fit in, Instagram Stories – whatever the f ** k, facade you're trying to put on, trying to keep up. what's happening inside. "
