Randy Orton has opened up about the serious mental health problems he suffered while battling injury a few years ago.
“I didn’t see us talking about this stuff, but I started kind of getting in my head,” the WWE superstar said on the “What’s Your Story?” podcast with Stephanie McMahon. “And this is after I met [my wife]. And I have three stepsons, and I have two daughters, and I kind of got overwhelmed… I didn’t really want to get into this, but I don’t even give a f–k, like what the hell. We’re all human.”
Orton, 45, said he suffered panic attacks and took antidepressants and anti-anxiety medication around the time of his spinal fusion surgery in 2022, which was potentially career-ending.
