I’m there with you richarlison. As someone who struggled for nearly a decade with depression. I can say that if I had spoken to someone earlier continuously to treat my mental health I wouldn’t have to suffer such a miserable pain. I chose to deal with it myself as if no one would ever completely understand me. But I was wrong and I shouldn’t have been so stiff about it. I’m doing alright now but doing it on my own could’ve ended disastrously. And that’s not worth the risk. Also had my family and mainly my parents as a strength near the end when I needed people in my corner to talk to and work things out. My prayers go out to everyone who face this and I hope you all reach the peace we all search for

So for somebody like Richarlison a high profile Premier league and Brazil international to admit that even with all the money in the world, Depression doesn’t care who you are or what you are.

Mental health can affect anyone regardless of wealth true but these footballers are so far detached from the normal people especially ones with serious mental health . Hell have seen a top psychologist instantly and had the best care unlike us that have to go months or years without getting proper help.. hes on 90k a week and just a fraction of that could be used to support mental health charities through out the world but no mention of that .

[@ClarenceBoddicker87]

Mental health charities and services are all a con, they don't help, he has been seeing specialists but look at the state of him. We have more mental health services and support than ever in history but mental health is constantly rising. How is that so? Its about society, culture and humanity, we are going so far away from what we are supposed to be as humans, going against our nature and it is affecting us. Of course no "professional" will ever say this, the'll give you a pill or a meaningless questionnaire/assessment to complete from a textbook.

[@marc.the.red1987]

​@@ClarenceBoddicker87is that what you think mental heath problems don't exist its all a con . I tell you now there's fantastic support and charities out there who are seriously under funded . Hope you don't have to use them

They should be more worried about the amount of people dropping down with heart problems and don't say it's normal it's always happened because it hasn't and to see many games stopped because of a medical incident in the crowd is also not normal it's a problem but everyone is turning a blind eye it's like there embarrassed to say they were wrong and have made everyone a ticking time bomb😮

[@PXzyan]

This is an amazing interview and really wonderful to see him open up like this, such a powerful message for men to open up and it isn't a sign of weakness. It's a sign of courage, bravery, strength, and an emotional awareness to speak up and potentially face ridicule from fellow athletes and fans alike. powerful :)

Isn't it the same guy who went on social media and said " Brazil 1st choice striker and 5th choice CB" to his international team mate? He is crying? Gabriel should have given him a beating after the match. He wasn't even 1st choice striker in a 5th placed side. How dare he disrepects a defender with more goals than a striker and who is 1st choice for a team fighting for the league.

Cheers to you Sir ❤ I as a huge EPL fan could see the pain. I knew you held so much pressure on yourself to be better. I also saw how great you are but from the struggles you doubted yourself. Just an observation but I am so proud of you for getting help but moreover I am proud you are willing to help others by speaking out 👏♥️👏 You are great and play an amazing game so see you on the pitch as we are all rooting for your success 🥰 Truly a fan of you ❤

what about the self employed guy married with 3 kids who goes short of work, thats mental pressure.And if he has no money put by what does he do.Where as the football always gets paid, so is looked after.

Sorry for the self employed guy and sorry for the footballer. Leading completely different lives but both are human and as for depression your pocket or life situation does not matter.
