Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson has taken to TikTok to deliver an empowering message about the importance of mental health, especially on World Mental Health Day.
In an emotional video, The Rock disclosed the issues that many individuals, including him, are dealing with and underlined the importance of reaching out to friends, family, and even strangers when it comes to mental health matters.
“Today is World Mental Health Day and I wanted to check in with you guys… check in on your friends, your loved ones, check in on your family members, check in on some strangers too as well.”
The Rock highlighted the importance of reaching out to those who might be silently struggling, reminding fans that everyone is fighting battles that are often invisible to the outside world.
“Everybody’s fighting a battle, everybody’s fighting demons, and a lot of people keep it in, and a lot of people don’t talk about it.”
For the star, it’s not about asking, “What’s wrong?” — it’s about asking, “How’s your heart?” and “How are you feeling?”
“You’d be surprised what that means to people.”
In the video, The Rock opened up about his own experiences with mental health, revealing that even on days when everything looks perfect on the outside, the internal struggle can still be real.
“There’s not a cloud in the sky, it’s a beautiful day, but I wake up and I just see gray and feel gray. I’ve been there.”
The message was personal and profound, with The Rock urging fans to look after their own mental well-being by checking in on themselves, as well as others.
“It’s okay to say you’re not okay. Asking for help, that’s a superpower.”
He closed his emotional message with a strong reminder: never underestimate the power of checking in.
“Check in on your friends, your loved ones… but most importantly, check in on yourself.”
With millions watching, The Rock’s call to action couldn’t be clearer: mental health matters and it’s okay to seek support when you need it.
