.TheRock is getting candid about his struggles with depression
Dwayne Johnson is opening up about the various struggles with depression he’s experienced throughout his life.
Appearing on “The Pivot Podcast”, Johnson recalled his first experience with depression came when a shoulder injury impacted what had been a promising football career at the University of Miami. “My first battle with depression was down there in Miami. I didn’t want to go to school, I was ready to leave. I left school. I didn’t take any midterms and I just left,” he recalled. “But the interesting thing at that time is, I just didn’t know what it was. I didn’t know what mental health was, I didn’t know what depression was. I just knew I didn’t wanna be there.
He continued: “I wasn’t going to any of the team meetings, wasn’t participating in anything, wasn’t working out. And you know for us, as athletes, just any kind of sweat and getting it in will get that s**t out of you. I couldn’t do it because of my shoulder. So at that time, that was a tough one for me and again, I didn’t know what it was.”“Years later, I went through it again when I got a divorce — didn’t know that it was. Years later, around 2017 or so, I went through it a little bit.
