But she tells the Boston Herald that she was ready to take hold of her life again as she embarks life in her 30s.

"I've been in therapy my whole life," she told the publication. "I like going. I like being able to have that third-party input and someone to listen that has nothing to do with your life. Everyone has an opinion of how I am and how I should be, and now I'm focusing on how I want to be."

LeAnn says that she finds it difficult to not let her interaction on social networking sites affect her.

"I think it's really hard to deal with Twitter and Facebook and all these social media outlets," she said. "And it's hard to take it day after day of reading and seeing things that someone you don't even know says about you. As much as you said you don't want it to penetrate, it does, because you're human."

"I had some wonderful times in my 20s, but your 20s are hard," LeAnn explained. "It was a lot of learning experiences ... and a lot were thrown at me publicly. I was ready to embrace 30."

"I have felt like I've had a piece of tape over my mouth the last four years," said the star. "I wanted to start the next 30 years of my life on a great foot."
