In the latest issue of Star, a friend says Christina has "lost her confidence" since splitting from husband Jordan Bratman.
“She gets terribly sad, and that’s when all the awful memories come flooding back and she ends up numbing herself with booze and food," says the source, who claims Aguilera has gained 40 pounds over the last few months.
Pals believe Aguilera's new boyfriend, Matthew Rutler, has served as an enabler to the troubled celebrity. How will this relationship play out? They are scared to consider the possibility.
"Everyone is worried sick," says this friend. "She needs to get help before something even more serious happens."
