Drew Carey is a versatile entertainer who has worn many hats throughout his decades-long career in showbiz.
The People’s Choice Award winner began battling depression before he ever got into the industry.
Unfortunately, after Carey became famous and earned several accolades, his mental health continued to deteriorate.
I won’t get a movie deal.
I won’t get invited to […]' whatever goes through your head," he explained.
As the “Price Is Right” host admitted, “I wasn’t as good as they were.
I wasn’t as worthy as they are.
And all that stuff makes you just hate yourself and judge yourself.
And it’s all negative, negative, negative.”
“I still get depressed, often, just like everyone else,” Carey divulged.
“But it’s not as bad.
Everybody’s a person,” (viaEntertainment Weekly).
Among the ways that Carey was able to improve his mental health was by immersing himself in self-help books.
