In an interview with Men’s Health magazine, Russell spoke about a wide range of issues surrounding mental health, stating tha♔t people should not be afraid to seek it.

While Russe🍬ll didn’t pinpoint the exact race he decided to seek proꦐfessional advice, Imola 2020 and Sakhir 2020 were low moments for him, although the latter was more out of his control.

“﷽The moment when I thought I need to seek some professional h𒉰elp, I had a really difficult race. I had a crash, [and] it was a very low point in my career,” Russell said. 

“I th🎐ought I could just pick myself up from that moment and I was p🐼icking myself up, but we decided to speak with a professional.

“And I was so grateful that I was advised to do that because I came away from that conversation and that meeting with him feeling so much better about myself, a🌊nd put those negatives to the side, lifted myself up, and I was ready to attack the rest of the day and the rest of the week.”

Fellow British F1 driver 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Lando Norris has been incredibly vocal about mental health, also opening up about the troubles he faced during h🍒is rookie season in 2019.

Russell 𝓰admitted he hadn’t always been informed about mental health.

“I haven’t always been into my mental health. I only started getting into it about a year and a half, two 𓆉years ago, when I started to speak with a psychologist, mainly for my on-track personal performance,” Russell added.

“It was o♐nly through those conversations that I felt like this is giving me more than just the o🐈n-track benefits. I’m coming away from these sessions feeling better about myself, feeling like there had been a weight lifted off my shoulders.

“Sometimes I went into these sessions with not a lot to talk about, thinking it would only last five or 10 minutes, and I was ther꧒e well over an hour and since then it has been something I have felt strongly about.”

Russell offered one final piece of advice for anyone struggling with their own mental health.  ಞ;

“The one bit of advice I would give to someone who is struggling with their mental health would be not to be ashamed about talking to somebody,” Russell said. “Whether that is a ﷽friend, or a colleague, or a member of your family, or reaching out to a professional.

“We all hജave our moments where we are feeling a bit down, a little bit low but even when we are not, I think talking to somebody to almost have this mental maintenance just to keep ticking over, to keep in that positive place, is so important.”
