It seems that things have been going pretty well for Saweetie as of late. 

Earlier this year, she grew her brand by landing a deal with McDonald's. She also performed on SNL and has a slew of shows booked.

But the California-born rapper is feeling the pressure of being a successful artist, which she spoke to People about during a recent interview.

"I can't believe I worked this hard," Saweetie admitted. "I try to take things day to day. Sometimes I can't look at my calendar on my weekly schedule because it'll give me anxiety. I feel like what I'm working for is starting to pay off, so I'm just really grateful to be acknowledged. I struggle with my mental health and [I don't] have time for myself at all ... It's like I live, sleep, eat and breathe music and business. My team is really small so I have to take on responsibilities that eventually somebody else will but because my team is small, I have to help them out."

"It's just trying to find balance right now," she added. "I have no balance. Everything is just work, work, work and I don't have an outlet. I don't have a therapist. I don't hang out with any of my friends because I work so much, so it's just trying to thug it out into until the New Year."

Earlier this year, Doja Cat said something similar, admitting in a tweet that she's overworked and unhappy.

What do you think about Saweetie's admission?
