The 26-year-old singer entered a treatment facility at the beginning of October after she suffered an "emotional breakdown" following multiple hospitalisations due to issues related to Lupus and her kidney transplant last year. 

But now, a month after she sought professional help, insiders claim she has now left rehab and is "doing much better".One source told E! News: "Selena is out of her treatment program in NYC and is doing much better. [She is] refreshed and is in a better head space, [but she] will still be checking in with professionals as her health battle is ongoing."The insiders also say the 'Wolves' singer "wants to lay low for a while and isn't ready to go full force into working yet."Selena previously took to Instagram to tell her followers she would be stepping away from the spotlight for a while in order to work on improving her mental health.In a lengthy Instagram Live video, she said: "I think before I turned 26 there was like this weird time in my life [where] I think I was kind of on auto pilot for about five years. Kinda just going through the motions and figuring out who I am and just doing the best I could and then slowly but surely doing that."She later posted on the photo-sharing app: "Taking a social media break. Again. "As much as I am grateful for the voice that social media gives each offs, I am equally grateful to be able to step back and live my life present to the moment I have been given. "Kindness and encouragement only for a bit! Just remember -negative comments can hurt anybody's feelings. Obvi. (sic)"
