Liz Cambage has opened up about her battle with depression and anxiety, which she said spiraled out of control as recently as the end WNBA’s All-Star Weekend at the end of July.

The Las Vegas Aces star penned a candid essay for “The Player’s Tribune” – under the headline, “DNP – Mental Health” – about how her struggles with mental health have affected her and included how she needed to take time off after she suffered a panic attack when players returned from All-Star Weekend.

She detailed how horribly she played in the first two games back from the break, which led to her sobbing and struggling to breathe in the hallway outside of the locker room.

“My agent came and got me, and took me back to our team hotel so I could take some anxiety meds,” Cambage wrote. “I try to avoid that unless it’s an emergency, because my body and mind live in a fog for the next 14 hours. But better to live in a fog than get carried away by the tide.
