Lauv has released “Sad Forever,” the latest track off his upcoming debut album ~how i'm feeling~. The song was written in the midst of the pop visionary’s own struggle with mental health of which he detailed here

Lauv will be donating all proceeds from the track to various mental health organizations across the world that work to de-stigmatize mental health issues. 

Lauv said about the track, "I wrote sad forever at a time when I was extremely low. I was dealing with depression and OCD but hadn’t really recognized or gotten the help I needed. While I was hesitant at first, asking for help was an important first step. Mental illness is something that is often times not apparent to the outside world. It’s an ongoing journey with ups and downs and finding stability is a process that I’m still heavily working on. This song was written in a dark place but by donating all proceeds to mental health organizations I can only hope it helps others take their first step to ask for help too.”
