John Mayer took to Twitter Sunday night with the premise of answering anything and everything his followers threw at him. Not only did he pull through with serious life advice for everybody, he showed sympathy for a no-longer touring Justin Bieber and other artists alike.
It's Sunday evening. Let me be your life coach. If you can make the question fit, I'll make the answer fit.

He then began his online therapy session by retweeting and responding to some of his fans most compelling questions like, “how do you deal with parents who don’t support you?” Mayer promptly responded, “Don’t be angry. Build a support system of friends and other family. Become your own keeper. Train that inner voice that believes in you.” Others inquired about the creative process and asked about Mayer’s own method of getting past blocks in his mind when he’s creating.
“How do you defeat the creative block in your mind when you know you have something you wanna create or in my case write?” one fan asked, to which Mayer replied, “Songs don’t come when you visualize yourself having another song. They come when you can’t go another day without expressing how you feel.”
Hell no. It just contains it. Self love knows tomorrow's gonna be different. It holds onto you until then. https://t.co/AE3FgMDYVb

It's enough time to tell someone isn't. As for "is"? Not enough time. https://t.co/wycD2croiZ

They air on the side of understanding. They would prefer to understand you. They root for you. https://t.co/vSYhV61S5V

Mayer also tweeted the following day about his feelings towards Justin Bieber, who had just announced the cancellation of the remainder of his Purpose world tour. Here’s what he had to say:
When someone pulls remaining dates of a tour, it means they would have done real damage to themselves if they kept going. 1/2

We've lost so many great artists lately. I give Justin 👍🏼👍🏼 for realizing it was time to call it. You should too. 2/2

Gone are the days of his obsession with poop twitters; Mayer seems fit to be a therapist with his soft, heartfelt words, but I guess John Mayer will always be John Mayer:
Fun times. Federal law requires me to advise you I'm not a licensed therapist. This isn't even my office. And this is a fake mustache. Night
