Megan has also faced significant mental health challenges, including performance anxiety and suicidal thoughts after the shooting and during the trial. The relentless harassment—complete with death threats and cruel comments suggesting Lanez should have “finished the job”—heightened her fears for her safety, particularly in public settings. This ongoing stress led her to feel paralyzed at times and grapple with dark thoughts. “I would rather not live through this than to have to live with this,” she recalled.

In 2022, following a break-in at her home, while she was performing on SNL, she decided to take a step back from her career and spent a month in a mental health retreat. That same year, the Houston native launched a website called “Bad Bitches Have Bad Days Too,” aimed at providing mental health resources for fans in need. The site includes a list of free therapy organizations and links to national crisis hotlines, offering extensive support for mental health and substance abuse. It also features resources tailored to Black and LGBTQ community members, including directories like the LGBTQ Psychotherapists of Color and Therapy for Black Girls, as well as the StrongHearts Native Helpline for those affected by domestic abuse and sexual violence.
