“Rock bottom for me was having hundreds of suits and not covering the pain. Rock bottom for me was having hundreds of pairs of shoes but couldn’t take a step in the right direction.”

“Rock bottom for me was having 10 cars and wasn’t going nowhere. Rock bottom for me was having a 14,000-square-foot house but never feeling at home.”

“Rock bottom for me was laying between two and three women at a time, but you get up unsatisfied. Rock bottom for me … yes, I was bleeding.”

“Laying right beside the person who said they love you, but she didn’t even know you was in pain. That was rock bottom for me.”

Deion tried to talk to people close to him about his situation but nobody understood. Because honestly, when you’re rich and living the good life you shouldn’t have anything to complain about right? Nope! Rich people are human as well and they have issues too. But nobody was prepared for what Deion was about to do next.

He Was So Unhappy, He Tried To Commit Suicide

During his interview, Deion revealed that he was so unhappy with his life that at one point he tried to commit suicide. TMZ Sports reports;

Sanders has addressed his issues before — describing in his autobiography, “Power, Money & Sex: How Success Almost Ruined My Life,” how the stress drove him to attempt suicide in 1997.

Deion says he drove his car off of a highway and over a cliff, falling 40 feet. Miraculously, he survived.

“I opened my eyes and I was still alive,” Sanders says.

Since that incident over twenty years ago Deion has rededicated his life to Christ and is leaving his antics as the Prime Time character behind him. He’s now a Christian motivational speaker and is also about to start a new chapter with an upcoming wedding to media mogul Tracey Edmonds (Babyface’s ex-wife), who he’s been in a relationship with since 2012. It’s good to hear that he’s living a happier life now and hopefully his story will be an example to everyone that there is indeed light at the end of the tunnel. Best of luck to you Deion!
