Fans are worried about the mental health of Nick Cannon, who opened up about being suicidal in an emotional post about losing a close friend.
Nick, who was having a complicated week following the backlash for comments on his podcast that led to him getting fired from one of his hosting gigs, learned the passing of rapper Ryan Bowers.
While mourning his pal, the TV personality explained that he is depressed and hinted that he is thinking about taking his own life.
Following the troubling message, fans reached out to Nick to share words of encouragement.
One person said: “Your purpose is greater than your pain. You’re going through some dark times right now and that is apart of the human experience. Allow yourself to have these weak moments but don’t allow them to turn into a weak mindset.”

A fourth comment read: “Nick sounds like he is on edge. Family and close friends, please check on him. Nick, if you see this, keep pushing. Don’t give up. God will see you through this, and we stand with you 1000%.”
This social media user added: “Come on, Nick, get it together, man! It’s just a bump in the road. During these sad times in our world, everyone has a bag of crap that they are carrying around. Hoping you can turn it around!”
