What condition does Nick Kyrgios have?

Nick Kyrgios has revealed his battle with serious depression and substance abuse in a raw social media post and about mental health. The Australian tennis player has opened up about the darkest periods in his life around the time of the 2019 Australian Open.

Nick revealed that he was struggling so much that he turned to self-harm. He wrote on his Instagram post that, “If you look closely on my right arm, you can see self harm. I was having suicidal thoughts and was literally struggling to get out of bed, let alone play in front of millions.

I was lonely, depressed, negative, abusing alcohol, and drugs, and pushed away from family and friends. I felt as if I couldn’t talk or anyone. This was a result of not opening up and refusing to lean on my loved ones and simply just push myself little by little to be positive”.

Kyrgios says that he is deeply affected by the abuse he has received on social media over the years.
