Big Sean Talks Contemplating Suicide and Mental Health on Michael Eric Dyson’s ‘One Question, One Mike’

Big Sean gets real about suicidal thoughts and mental health.

During an interview with Michael Eric Dyson via Facebook Watch series “One Question, One Mike,” Big Sean talked about the struggles of mental health and what it took for him to heal from suicidal thoughts:

“I couldn’t get through the day without feeling terrible. I was sure contemplating suicide a lot of times, you know having guns in my hands and just really feeling it for real…even planning it out to the point where like, ‘Hey, if I do kill myself at least my family will get this amount of money,’” said Sean. “Because I just was stressed out and not happy. I realized that I need to stop everything I’m doing and figure this out or I’ma self-destruct.”
