In a recent interview with La Sexta, Rafael Nadal opened up about dealing with mental health problems. The Spaniard mentioned that he went to a psychologist twice in his life, and he did not have a problem talking about it.

“I have never had any problem talking about it. I went to a psychologist twice in my life, at two different stages in my life for two different problems I had," the Spaniard said in an interview with La Sexta.

The 22-time Grand Slam champion added that is a good thing that people are now talking about mental health.

"It is an advancement that people have the peace of mind of being able to talk about it. If you have pain in your leg, you go to the doctor,” he said.

The 37-year-old acknowledged it as a taboo subject for many people and added that it was a crucial aspect of life.

“Maybe it has been a more taboo subject, but I don't perceive it this way, I perceive it as something normal and natural , it is just another part of the body and I would say the most important,” he said.

The Spaniard also urged people facing mental health problems to get help.

The people who have problems, no matter how small, if they can receive help and it helps them be happier, they are welcome," he added.
