Lincoln Lewis speaks out about his struggles with mental health

An important topic.
  • 27 Dec 2019

Former Home and Away star Lincoln Lewis has discussed the importance of mental health in a new online post.

The 32-year-old penned a new blog post for the 2020 Mentality Project where he opened up about his personal mental health struggles.

WATCH: Lincoln Lewis opens up about being a loving uncle

The blog reads: “I'm a naturally bubbly & energetic person who has always loved everything about life, being around people, being outside, running around etc.

The blog continued: “So whenever I have my quiet or bad days they can be easily picked up by those who know me.

“That was the main trouble when my once bad days had become an everyday thing – because I'd chosen not to confront what was weighing me down mentally, which then trickled into my emotional state and then finally, my physical state.”

Lincoln has penned a new blog post that discusses the importance of mental health.

Instagram

Earlier this year the actor discussed his struggle with mental health after a devastating and high-profile cat-fishing case which led to a woman committing suicide. 

Last year an old pal of Lincoln's took her own life after Melbourne woman Lydia Abdelmalek, 29, used Lincoln's profile to catfish seven people for years.

"For the first time in my life, I was saying to those closest to me that I felt like I was going through depression. Or to put it another way, I felt broken", Lincoln told Men's Health at the time.

Lydia

Lydia Abdelmalek has been charged on six counts for her elaborate and devastating catfish scam.
