"When I'm going through my ups and downs, I still go through depression and anxiety, sometimes daily. In those moments, I have a couple of friends that will reach out to me or I'll reach out to them right. Like, if I haven't heard from somebody, I reach out to them. I check in."

He raised mental health awareness as he suggested people get a person in whom they can confide in and share all the ups and downs going.
