Lewis Hamilton reveals battle with depression due to pressure of F1 racing [Video]

F1 ACE Lewis Hamilton revealed he has struggled with depression all his life due to pressure of racing.

The seven-times world champ has had mental health difficulties since he was 13.

He said: “I think it was the pressure of the racing and struggling at school — the bullying.

“I had no one to talk to. I’d struggle initially to calm my mind.”

The 39-year-old said he started waking at 5am to meditate in 2020 and has gone on silent retreats.

He has a 10km run to clear his mind.

He added “It’s a great way of getting in touch with myself, my inner feelings — understanding what I want to do.”

Asked if he saw a therapist, the Mercedes driver said: “I spoke to one woman years ago — but that wasn’t very helpful. I’d like to find someone today.”
