He said, "Having struggled with mental health, depression and some other things that come along with that, I think that whether I help one person or a hundred people get out of that place that I was in at one point in my life, that’s all I need to do."
"[Mental health] is an issue. It is such a big part of my life. It’s a 24/7 job, and there’s so much to it," he continued. "That’s really what I want to do: help people, whether you’re depressed, you’re struggling with something that is having a negative effect on your body. I mean it could be anything, and there’s no judgment."
Presley also spoke about how lessons from his own experiences could potentially help others avoid similar mistakes.
He said, "I’ve seen a lot of stuff and I’ve learned a lot of things. What I hope I can do is have made the mistakes for some other people, so they don’t have to make the same mistakes that I made."
