From Suicidal to Superhero: Actor Zachary Levi Shines a Light on the Importance of Mental Health

0

Actor Zachary Levi is known for his work in films like “Shazam!”, “The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel,” and “American Underdog.” Now he’s using his own life story to shine a light on the importance of mental health. He shared his personal journey of how he went from suicidal to superhero with CBN News.

Zach Levi lands larger-than-life acting roles quite regularly. Less well-known is the private life and painful childhood of Zachary Levi Pugh. When he was a child, he thought his life was normal. He only realized much later that it wasn’t even close to normal.

“There wasn’t anything particularly traumatic that I could point to and say I am living a traumatized life,” he said. “You don’t realize that until far later in life, hopefully. A lot of people don’t realize that. Looking back on it, I can assure you it was an incredibly traumatizing childhood. There was just lots and lots of unhealthy, toxic behavior that was going on. Again, I could tell you that there were things that were making me cry on a regular basis. And things that I was afraid of on a regular basis. But I didn’t necessarily see those as being anything but normal. I guess this is probably what other kids deal with as well. So that would be a snapshot into my life, I suppose.”
