He's a great role model for anyone but especially young men struggling
I guess im asking randomly but does any of you know of a tool to log back into an instagram account??
I somehow lost my login password. I love any tips you can give me

A big guy like him suffering from depression?... He’s a true inspiration and depression can hit ANYONE
ANYONE
At any age
@@joedavys7048 yes ANYONE and the person that experiencing it feels like it's the worst feeling in the world
probably why he started boxing
Much respect for speaking on it all, Tyson.
He didn’t become depressed, he became lazy. Someone like him has no reason to be depressed simply because he has it all, anyone who says that doesn’t cure depression is wrong.
Much respect to him for talking about this. I'm an Army veteran with depression, PTSD and anxiety. There can be a huge stigma in the world when it comes to mental illness, especially when it comes to men. We are taught to be strong and fight through anything. Emotions are a sign of weakness and so on. That's ridiculous. The strongest people are those who know they have an issue and are willing to reach out for help to rectify the problem. If anyone is suffering from any emotional or mental issues please get help. It's out there but only if you want it
Are you treating it naturally?
@@Hitit123 Medication and therapy are how I'm treating it. I haven't heard of any natural treatments. What do you mean?
@@Ray__E There is no such thing as "Mental Illness" as the whole "Chemical Imbalance" thing has never been nor will be proven scientifically! Psychiatry at best is a pseudo science and at worst harms far more than it helps. I'm a psychiatric survivor who was on a cocktail of psychotropic drugs for over seventeen years.. one of which was Klonopin! After a grueling fifteen month taper I was eventually able to get off all RX drugs..however I still have a long arderous road ahead of me. Trauma, abuse, neglect, rejection and a myriad of other misfortunes can indeed cause one to be labeled with an often times degrading psychiatric condition. However in no way shape or form do you nor anyone else for that matter have a "Chemical Imbalance". I highly urge you to research the afformentioned for yourself. Please don't forget that the pharmaceutical companies make billions pushing stories like this one. In closing the suicide rate has gone up a whopping 20% over the last twenty years while psychotropic medication dispenced has gone up exponentially ...that FACT alone should be a huge red flag for those interested in learning the TRUTH🤔👊
@@Ray__E If you don't mind me asking what did they diagnose you with? Additionally what did they put you on? I come in peace my friend as I'm devoting the rest of my life to helping others as others helped me😁
@@Hitit123 I was diagnosed with PTSD, anxiety and major depressive disorder. The meds I'm on are venlafaxine, trazodone, and hydroxyzine. I only take the trazodone when I absolutely need it to help me sleep. It's very powerful and makes me feel sluggish after I wake up. The venlafaxine treats my depression and the hydroxyzine helps the anxiety.
Love you Tyson, I dealt with this myself I found out at 26 I had anxiety. People who ain’t got it don’t understand
Most people don’t know if they have anxiety and depression intill they hit rock-bottom I hit rock-bottom at 17 at the end of high school.
get treatment... i thought it was whatever until it wasnt 😑
I got diagnosed at 26 with anxiety too. You know what I think the hardest thing about anxiety is? The blurs, the confusion and the second geussing. It's not just about feeling nervous it's also about not being sure of anything sometimes
My anxiety made me feel vulnerable, nervous and made me unsure about myself, made me doubt myself and nervous when I shouldn't be. Still Makes me feel uncomfortable and over think a situation and makes me put it is much worse than it actually is, makes me feel drained some days and fatigued and panick attacks come and go as they please and my sleep is varied and not regular. Everything seems like a repeating crappy circle and when you go out and you talk to someone and some days you are ok and the next you are lossed for words and feel like you are going to say something stupid and keep yourself quiet and over think it after about what you should of said and sometimes the anxiety makes you not want to go out and when you do you want to run home back to your safe place because there you feel normal and safe and some jokes you can take but some
You take to heart or get abit too over sensitive. Anxiety is a monster that lets you live in peace some days but others makes you feel on edge and it can be a draining process that only the outside you look fine to to others but on the inside your fighting this invisible demon that nobody sees and all they see is your fake smile but not your pain and that is why people with anxiety are really the strong ones because we have to deal with live and ourself and anxiety comes in many forms whether it’s through injury or failure or health anxiety thinking something is wrong with you all the time or phantom pains. Many people deal with different anxiety and I wouldn’t wish it on my worse enemy as it can kill you if you are low enough. I am now 32 and my anxiety as calmed down abit but it has brought on premature balding through stress and through sitting about doing nothing but going work and then laying about etc brought on a hiatus hernia and in away even thoe it gives me trouble now and then it has helped me become healthier and fitter as I’ve been forced to change my eating habits and excerise more and that as helped me keep happy but still sometimes sad. So my advice to anyone. Chocolate and all that greasy food etc and just sitting not upright etc all bring on a hiatus hernia if you are unlucky that is where your stomach pushes through your little thin muscle in between your diaphragm. It’s a thin muscle that weakens through too much chocolate and greasy food and slouching and not sitting up right and I was told many people have this condition without even knowing and it’s cause by bad lifestyle and lack of movement. And some times lifting poorly. I have now cut out chocolate and greaves food as this irratates it and can cause flare up and I have limited my beer to every othe weekend not every weekend and only a have a few not a lot. I feel miles better now through eating better and taking care of myself then I ever did and despite my HH and premature balding. I am a better person then I ever was in the past and I even make the effort to go out and jump into the deep end and talk and make the effort to try and beat what I have that doesn’t like me to enjoy myself. It’s your time to stop abusing yourself and start looking after your temple (your body) and force yourself to get help and mingle with others you’d normally avoid. Stop sitting about all the time
And go out and stop worrying to much even if you can’t help it try and get an hobby to combat the worrying as a busy mind is a mind that can’t be over thought with doubt. When your not busy your mind is allowed to make thoughts and that is when you have. To much free time on your hands and that isn’t good for someone who lacks focus and has foggy head and anxiety. The key is too keep busy and have a routine.
@@kylel8516 your the greatest 😎
Depression is a horribly debilitating disease. It takes extra strength to do what he's doing. Many of us become addicts and/or just barely get by.
Damien Holland your so right my friend 🙏🏻
I mean were not world champions, not saying his pain wasnt big, just saying that he had something big to live for
Appreciate this comment
Im bouncing back from a 3 year fentanyl/smack addiction and restarting my fight career... I’ve been training 3 years on drugs the whole time and keeping up with pros while they were in camp. Tyson Fury is a huge role model.
@@yoshi9706 One person with depression can be a pro athlete while another can barely get out of bed. And that isn't necessarily by choice or willpower. If your brain totally doesn't work regarding pleasure you aren't going to be a pro athlete. So to some extent his brain is still working despite being under the duress of this disease.
I had battled with extreme depression, and substance abuse, but it peaked around the time Tyson decided to make his comeback. Watching him make that comeback inspired me to stop pretending the problems would magically cure themselves, and I had to do something to fix it. May sound corny, or cliche, but this mans return, his words, and ultimate triumph, saved me in a big way. Wasn't a big fan of his before all this if I'm being honest, but couldn't be a bigger fan now.
This man is the best heavyweight of this era !!!
Brownie Garcia naw wilder is
Thaddeus Jones Fury outclassed Wilder in every round except for the two knockdowns...
now wt u say
@@thaddeusjones540 😂😂😂
@@thaddeusjones540 😂😂😂 what you saying now.
I recently lost a friend to suicide and just left his funeral. We're both boxing fans and he loved the gypsy king. If you're struggling in life please don't suffer in silence. Talk to someone whether it's a friend, family member or professional. If you have an old friend you've been meaning to t call or text. MAKE TIME to do so. Because I can't speak to mine and that's on me.
must hurt ..
This happened. This is absolutely awful and I’m hoping that this video helps you through it and helps you understand it. I hope this helps everyone. Thank you for being so open and honest while you’re grieving. I’m so sorry brother. May the Gypsy King carry on his name and may we continue to make progress towards suicide prevention and develop better treatment a for these issues. Especially for MEN! Like me, who are going through this and have to be ashamed of myself because I’m supposed to be ALPHA MALE TOUGH and never be sensitive or as the general society has taught us. But the stigma around male depression has to end. I’m so incredibly happy for famous people and sport stars like Fury, Kevin Love, Zach Greinke, and others who have opened up about depression and anxiety. It’s helps the rest of us tremendously to be able to relate. Peace and love always.
I'm so sorry for your loss man, I hope you're better now. You and your friend will be on my prayers, take care man!
Iam so sorry for your loss man.
“I don’t think you can get anything better than love. If you can really be loved and really love people, there is no better than that” - Tyson Fury. What a hero
I’ve suffered from anxiety and depression my whole life just like Fury and it reached a boiling point since I suffered in silence. I still fight it today but listening to Fury gives me inspiration to beat it!
Chris M I’m with you. Peace and love man.
Keep strong bro I believe in you
The toughest battle you can have is yourself
This comment is gold only somone who deals with crippling anxiety and depression can really understand this comment
This comment isn't something you would get if you don't deal with anxiety
I suffer from anxiety depression, on my birthday in 2017 I was diagnosed with PTSD only 1 month ago I was further diagnosed with BPD (borderline personality disorder)
Mental health is no joke its nearly destroyed me but I'm fighting hard not to let it.
Thanks Tyson for your inspiration
imadad bestjobintheworld snap...its a daily struggle. ..
I’m with you brother. Right here with you.
We’re all behind you brother
how are u doing now?
Say what you want about his boxing ability, but you have to respect Tyson Fury as a man. Anyone that can open up, pour his heart out, and be frank about his vulnerabilities is a hero in my book.
He is the best boxer and a very humble men
Thank you. I appreciate this awesome comment. I struggle with this myself. 🙏
What do you mean say what you want about his boxing ability? His ability in boxing is incredible. Nothing else to say!
The Gypsy King, live long and prosper
Here after his win last night. I had never really paid attention to him or boxing in general but after reading this man's life story and watching him in the ring last night... I am a giant fan.
I'm 17 and struggling with anxiety I've been having panic attacks for the past 4 days and I feel hopeless. Whenever I talk or watch Tyson fury I feel motivated to get through this I struggle with anxiety and depression but this is worse it's been I'm in a dark place right now but I'll get out one day
Hopefully you'll get through it and defeat it off man in time, and become more stronger around it
@@Piker2346 thanks brother your comment means alot to me bro
I’m about to be 30 and I’ve been suffering for a long time to brother keep fighting and don’t be afraid to speak out even if people ignore you
I’ve had panic attacks for nearly 17 years. As Tyson says in this video, the best thing to combat them is exercise. You don’t have to be a gym bunny but just go for long walks daily and it really does help. I abused alcohol for way too long to try and ease the symptoms and it only makes things worse. If you’re anything like me, then don’t you feel like you need to escape any situation you’re in whilst having a panic attack? Maybe it’s the body’s way of getting you to move to readdress your oxygen levels.
Good luck mate. The sooner you control them the better, wish I had done it years ago 👍
The power of God is real man, amen brotha

god is good

With the lord behind us there is nothing that we can't do my friend! God bless.
@@redwon Athiests were probably never brought up thinking god was not on their side.
You've given me inspiration Tyson Fury, I suffer through the same anxiety as you and you have shown me that overcoming this problem or succeeding no matter what the odds are, that it can be done. Thank you Tyson Fury
MercMenace Keep you head up. But do not lower it. You’re better than you think you are. Peace and love always
@@jackassjoe28 this meant a lot reading someone just say it even if you weren't saying it to me. Thanks brother
The realest in the game, always
He's an inspiration to anybody living with anxiety 💪🏽
The greatest fighter I've seen in 30 years of watching the sport. I think he would give anyone a run for their money past or present.
A good fight for fury would be tinky winky , if too good maybe po ! Dont mind him making loads of cash but lets get serious he's average at best
@@peterdickinson3269 Well if he's average then the rest are crap because he's the best at the moment.
@@peterdickinson3269 You obviously don't know anything about boxing .
@@leematthews5697 It's all down to opinion . I would always accept your opinion without feeling superior as I know you are mistaken
@@peterdickinson3269 it's not actuality all opinion based. If you think Fury is average at best, you're one of the Knights
This great man opened up about depression a while ago either way THERES ONLY ONE TYSON FURY
I'm going through the same thing. The panic attacks are horrible. U feel like u having a heart attack. But i don't want to die.. It's being affraid of going to die every second of the day.
sending u love and hugs hang in there u are not alone ❤
As a person who struggled with being unhappy everyday and survived depression, I applaud ppl like Tyson who personify the struggle and bring awareness to it. Speak to your loved ones , anyone can go through it
This man needs a podcast
I’ve had panic attacks since I was 21 (coming up for almost 17 years now) and it’s good to hear this from a guy of Tyson’s status that normalises it to some extent. It takes a little bit of the pressure off to open up about struggling with mental health when even one of the toughest blokes on the planet can succumb to it.
Great inspiring story, stay fit and healthy everyone.
Watching this literally saved my life.
Thank you for sharing this Tyson ✌🏼
Great roll model for anyone who has mental health and addiction problems and a brilliant bastard lol
Azza Gunna !!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂☝🏿
This can be used as a lesson of anti depression.
God bless you champion.
Tyson the USA loves you brother STAY HERE !
Love this guy can listen to him talk all night god bless Tyson fury 💚
Love this interview!!!
I get some heavy periods of anxiety... It's nothing to be ashamed of.
He forgot the best part of the Halloween story when he was 400 lbs dressed as a skeleton
Thank-you Tyson, I’ve had anxiety since I was 3 and never even knew what it was until I was 19. I always thought I was just a fucked up coward.
Thank you for this
This video saved me. Thank you.
The respect i have for this guy is mad,what a inspiration
This man is amazing and so inspirational. I suffer greatly from anxiety. I keep thinking all the time that something is going to happen but it doesn't. I keep having self doubts. But i keep going every day.
Needed to hear this
Speaking out about his mental health and so open about it. Respect to him as a human and a great boxer!
This man is a real man that speaks from the heart I can relate with this man than any other famous person very honest and legit Respect
I can relate to everything he said about depression and anxiety, I'm sure many people can.. It's up there with the most unsettling feeling any human can ever feel in one's life .. A silent killer, a endless aching pain..
Tyson is an amazing human being. God Bless him.
Great interview!
He is the first boxer i have been really excited about since Mike Tyson.
Open and honest. Much respect. He reminds me on Mike Tyson, he also was allways depresed and open about hes feelings.
He also bit a guys ear off tho. I don’t think the comparison is that accurate
@@jackassjoe28 holyfield headbutted him three times without getting disqualified so he got his revenge
Great interview man damn, i was feeling down and it made me feel better
Troy C same here mate
Out of all of the painfull things in life, such as betrayl, heartbroke, death, depression is the most painfull..wish all the best for people who are suffering from this
i love this man. What a legend!
Wow love this guy “besth thing in my life is Love” true champ
So much respect for this guy 👍
Im currently going through it now , watching him is motivating me. it comes and goes and i dont wanna feel like this no more
3 years into the future how you doing now
So Inspiring, I suffer from deep depression and I don’t have the confidence still fighting it.
I remember when i first saw Tyson Fury and it was somebody that i didn't think i would like. but he has proved me wrong over the years. He seems such a good person and he seems really respectful. I have a lot of time for him and enjoy watching his fights. I had some issues with anxiety and panic attacks and what he says makes a lot of sense.
He helps me a lot thank u
One word to describe Tyson Fury! LEGEND!
He's right. I'm Irish and grew up with gypsies. Two things they love - horses and fighting. It's a tradition for them to do bareknuckle boxing. It goes back at least three hundred years. Tyson does come from a very long line of fighters on both sides.
Thank you again for your honesty on depression...you have given me lots of inspiration
I find it impossible to not love, Fury, he is as genuine as they come.
Tyson is a really good man, may God Bless this man and his career as a boxer.
6:23 - So relatable.
Love you Tyson
Thank you for putting a spotlight on Depression
And thank you for being you
Top man
Stay strong
Xxx
True champion! Great man with a great comeback. God bless you champ,thank you for your confidence and great advice!
He takes the words out of my mouth every morning. Most people wake up and fall on there knees to give thx for the Lord waking them up another day. I wake up and fall on my knees and scream why did you wake me up !!!! He's spot on
Hang in there men
Then why don't you take a bunch of sleeping pills right before you go to sleep? I bet you won't wake up.

Amazing.
A real man hides from nothing. Tyson is a true champion and an amazing human being. I love that he is an open book, I definitely look up to him as a man and he deserves all the best. I would love to shake his hand and look him in the eyes so I can tell him how I respect and appreciate him. He’s a class act and I don’t know how anyone wouldn’t be a fan of his
Thank you Tyson. 🙏🏻
As someone who has struggled with depression my whole life. I understand him COMPLETELY.
My depression is started when I was 5 years age , all my life a war ! But Tyson fury ! Give a freedom to me now! I living now different! I will going the top of the world! Thank you dear Tyson! God blessings you ! I ask I speak I preying your and my happiness , I'm a gypsy man to and you helping me ! Thank you Tyson
Man just came across this. Wish I would've seen this years ago. The struggle of depression is a very difficult path especially all alone.
When the world watching, he openly shares his struggle and being vulnerable with us. He was a badass titan on the ring but a 5 year boy on this video. I have so much respect for that. Love this video. Good job too to ESPN to have this interview.
Very enlightening: Pursue what you love, be surrounded by people who love you, be vulnerable with those you love. Those appear to be keys the battling depression Thank you Tyson Fury!!
Realest comment..!!!
What an inspirational man Tyson Fury is. So honest and open about problems we all don’t want to acknowledge. I hope he realizes how many people he’s helping every day with his testimony.
This guy... I really like the realest comming from him!!👍🏿
He is so clear and smart
Such a great great man. He talks abouit stuff he really knows soo....
I became soo much less depressed after I won a amateur boxing fight at 18....Having my second in 2 months...I hope to get a first round ko again since I train like there's no tomorrow...I swear you'll hear my name one day.
So much respect for Tyson Fury. You can tell by how he acts that he has been through some hard times and come out the other side. Very inspirational.
Thanks Tyson. I went out on Wednesday night. Walked for miles. I felt suicidal. The walk helped. But I still felt suicidal. I'm a retired cop. Used to be a happy guy. Lockerbie changed me. I can't even talk now. Sorry
Absolute legend and role model. All the best for the future, champ!
Nice to know I’m not the only one
Tyson Fury a.k.a. The fighting Buddha.. Legend
Thank you Fury!
This man is definition of the word "inspiration"
Got a lot of respect for Tyson for being so open
*Absolute champion.*
I just love this man :)
This is a surprising and in some aspects incomprehensible story. Such greatness mixed with incredible sadness.
Glad his able to survive the killer depression. Hope those people who's under that feeling is watching this and gain hope motivation.
This is an Excellent interviewer @ ESPN
I really needed to listen to something like this right now... TYVM Gyspy King... I hope to soon see you as the new long reigning undisputed champion of the heavyweight division... You have everything you need to achieve that... And I know that I can cure my illness and regain what I so foolishly lost...
My guy I 🙏 you make it to where every it is you want to go.
Literally struggling daily with mental health, anger, depression, anxiety, paranoia, losing everyone around me because of it, I feel alone, I have tried the medication, I litrally need a break before I give up!! I watch things like this to give me some hope, but I am honestly struggling so much right now.
