After over a year of heavy drinking, drug use and depression, Tyson Fury had a breakdown. A panic attack led him to the hospital, where he was officially diagnosed with bipolar disorder.
During this stretch of time, Tyson Fury lost his boxing license due to failed drug tests. He owed millions of dollars in lawyer’s fees, weighed in at over 400 pounds, and was deemed “medically-unfit” to box by a world-renowned psychiatrist. At this point, many thought his fighting career was over. His prospective opponent, Deontay Wilder, even said he would never make a comeback.
And that, combined with the love of his family, is what motivated Tyson Fury to change.
Tyson Fury’s Comeback
Tyson Fury’s recovery was rooted in prayer, love, and motivation. He started setting goals for himself, one of them being to not only make the comeback Wilder said he wouldn’t, but also fight Wilder who was also undefeated at the time. He re-established an exercise routine, starting with small runs every day. He started working with a new trainer, was provided a clean bill of health, and was re-granted his license to box. He explains that the key assets to his recovery were (and continue to be):
Exercise, which releases endorphins and which also gave him purpose.
Maintaining good nutrition, to feel better physically.
Establishing goals, and making plans to meet them.
Sticking to an everyday routine, designed to support his goals.
Prayer, which he says is like his own form of meditation
Communication, not isolating himself, and staying open about his mental health
These, he believes, are what will keep on the path to a successful recovery.
“The old Tyson Fury was concerned about being accepted and whatever,” he emphasises to me, like a teacher frustrated by a thick pupil. “I only live for myself on a daily basis. I’m not really concerned what people accept or they don’t.
