Lewis Hamilton opens up about his long-term mental health struggles, mentioning that he has suffered from depression since his teenage years, compounded by bullying and the pressures of racing.
Reflecting on his coping strategies, Hamilton stated, 'Following a period of soul-searching amid the coronavirus pandemic in 2020, I began waking at 5am to meditate before going for a run.'
Having experienced bullying and racism since childhood, Hamilton emphasized the impact of these experiences on his mental health, stating, 'I had no one to talk to...I've struggled with mental health through my life.'
Although Hamilton previously consulted a therapist, he remarked, 'I spoke to one woman, years ago, but that wasn't really helpful. I would like to find someone today.'
