I think we’re all coming together to fight against mental health and to really let it be open to a lot of people because a lot of young men are it’s hard for them to talk about their feeling and actually suicide is more common in young men because everybody’s saying you got to be tough you got to be a certain way.”

Further, he gets emotional and added that while he was out of the ring, no one supported him. It was a setback to his mental health. However, ‘The Flash’ showed some concern for himself and his close ones who assisted him in getting out of the absolute hell. Talking about the current, he is more active, fresh, and focused.
