"Most people don’t have the luxury of a spare Thursday afternoon to pop round and see their therapist" Nick Grimshaw has spoken about his experience of anxiety, saying that he feels privileged to have access to therapy.
The BBC Radio 1 DJ opened up about the impact that a recent trek across the Namib desert for Sport Relief: The Heat Is On had on his mental health, after years of trying to manage his anxiety.
In a new interview with The Guardian the 35-year-old presenter explained that he became close to suffering organ failure whilst cycling in 44°C heat during the BBC challenge, which was broadcast in February. “I’m gonna be one of those annoying people who does a trek and is like: ‘I was changed in Africa,’” he told the publication.
