However, he has reflected on how becoming successful later in life affected his mental health over the years due to “worries over not having enough money to live on”.
Speaking to the Big Issue magazine about his experience of living with bipolar disorder, he said: “My particular big issue is what society would call mental illness.
“I was diagnosed at 26 as bipolar after an episode that landed me in an institution.
“I have definitely been in and out of the system. And there were times in my life where very easily I could have ended up on the streets, but I luckily had a family who could support me through those lean and very trying times.”
