Fox News
Atlanta Falcons tight end Hayden Hurst has been honest and open about his struggles with mental health and on Thursday he talked about his suicide attempt in a letter to his younger self.
"Tighten up, life will spiral downward from here. You’ll develop the yips, ruining your ability to throw with accuracy. You’ll tumble into depression and spend thousands of dollars on therapy but it will all fail you. You’ll turn to alcohol and drugs to kill the pain. You’ll be in a precipitous freefall and that will bring on more drugs and nightly drinking until you blackout," he says.More Related News
