Armie Hammer Reflects on the "Wake-Up Call" That Led Him to Seek Help - E! NEWS

"I think like everyone else on the planet, I felt like the rug was ripped from under my feet and I felt like I could feel it happening in slow motion, like the rug was just being ripped from my feet and I was falling face-first and I was gonna smash my face on the ground," Hammer told the outlet.

"I felt like I was in a state of like, free fall almost.

So I called a friend of mine, Brendan, who works in mental health and I was like, 'Dude, it's not good.

It's not good for me,' and he goes, 'i know, it's not good for anyone,' and I go, 'Yeah, but really not good for me, like I'm having a really hard time. I don't know what the answer to this is.' And he ended up getting me on the phone with a therapist who I started working with multiple times a week just to get me through sort of like the crisis aspect of what was going on.".

And I think a lot of people realized that they didn't like what themselves looked like.

They didn't like where they'd gotten to, and I was in that position as well and I decided to just take whatever steps I could to make a difference and to help myself.".
