The Rock Beautifully Addresses Mental Health Challenges with NFL Insider Jay Glazer: “That is not a weakness, That is a Superpower”

If there’s one thing that every industry inclusive of the sports and combat-sports industry has taken up with priority, it’s mental-health. Every athlete, every wrestler, every human being should be open about their mental health. One individual who strongly agrees with this is Dwayne Johnson aka The Rock.

Dwayne Johnson spoke with Jay Glazer about Glazer’s new book Unbreakable. The book discussed the mental hardships human beings go through, the dark days.

“We have a tendency to keep all our sh*t in and not talk about it. Especially, stuff where it maybe interpreted as weakness. But as you [Jay Glazer] know and as many out there know, and if you don’t know this, you should feel this and embrace this, is when you talk about your sh*t and when you talk about going through anxiety or depression or mental challenges, that is not a weakness. That is a superpower.”

Additionally, Johnson actually wrote the foreword for the book.

The Rock believes that this book will help a lot of people heal themselves. But, he knows one remedy that can spark up any conversation, Teremana tequila. The man truly loves his Teremana tequila!

Dwayne Johnson has often spoken about his way to heal himself

Dwayne Johnson has always been extremely open about how he keeps the stress at bay. His way of shutting out the world and only focusing on himself is working out.

When The Rock hits the weights, he shuts out the world, his stress, and pushes away everything else on his plate. The grind at the gym makes him feel alive and motivates him to do his best throughout the day.

Most of the time The Rock tries to start his day with a good workout. That’s his mantra to stay energetic and focused throughout the day.

The Rock doesn’t turn away from rewarding himself

Now, if Johnson is working out, he maintains a diet as well. But, that also means he rewards himself whenever the time comes.

More often than not, he has taken to social media to show off his cheat meals. Most of these cheat meals are overloaded with sugar such as a pile of pancakes, maple syrup, cookies, and The Rock toast.

Coming to what he’s doing currently, Dwayne Johnson is busy with his Hollywood schedule and working towards the 2023 XFL launch. It doesn’t seem like he’s going to return to WWE anytime soon!
