Michael Clarke suffering from OCD and dangerous mental illness: Who can forget the 2015 World Cup, Australia entered the finals after defeating India badly in the semi-finals. After that, Australia defeated New Zealand in a one-sided final match and lifted the World Champion trophy. It was former cricketer Michael Clarke under whose captaincy Australia won the ODI World Cup title in 2015.

Along with this, Michael Clarke led Australia to victory in the Ashes in the years 2013 and 2015. However, Clarke has now retired from international cricket and like every former cricketer, he is working as a commentator and is associated with cricket.

Michael Clarke is suffering from a life-threatening disease

Michael Clarke revealed in a podcast Mental As Anyone that he is suffering from obsessive-compulsive disorder. It is a mental illness, and he has told how his mental health is having a bad effect on his body.

Clark remains sad all day long and experiences a lot of depression. He said that he started experiencing this recently. But the surprising thing is that he has not got this disease treated nor has he made any such plan.

“I have never had my mental health checked. I think this is a normal thing in today’s world and things get better slowly on their own. You can ask my parents, I have never even gone to a doctor for this. My condition has become such that I remain very sad and upset throughout the day, and for many days I do not move from one place, I just lie down all day.”

“I just couldn’t get out of bed. Losing family members, losing some of my closest friends, so I think I was the one who suffered the most, but I think it was grief. I don’t know if it was depression or not. I never went to the doctor to get medication to take care of my sadness and depression.”
