“When I walked out of the ring, I didn’t just walk to my locker room, I literally walked all the way outside and I just went and cried in the parking lot by myself,” VanZant revealed on her new video blog series. “I said some things to my husband that are pretty terrible about like my mental state.

“I told him I didn’t want to live anymore, that this wasn’t for me anymore. Like life wasn’t for me anymore so I was disappointed, It was hard.”

She is an extremely accomplished person, very courageous, and a lot of other good things, but that loss didn't suddenly create a bad mental state. It goes much deeper than that. Hope she seeks professional help if these feelings persist.

What a crock of shit.

I dealt with depression working almost 3,000 hours a year for a couple straight years. Clinical manifestation of depression is not uniform, especially across genders and professions.

I don't mind people questioning her depression but it's real shit how if you talk openly about your depression the automatic response from a ton of people is "attention se
eking" or "soft." It's exactly why I just drank myself half to death to cope instead of addressing it.

I hope she does get help and I hope her financial success continues.

my childhood Friend has depression and she never asked for help, she had no strength for anything and no will to live, she didn't even care about expressing her feelings anymore.

so I feel disgusted when people like Paige talk about depression, she doesn't have that.

Man my uncle has a degree in psychology and it's no joke how many people fake depression in modern world, mental illness is very serious a moment of sadness after a defeat in mma is not depression.

Paige clearly has an Very big ego and feeds on attention, she doesn't have depression.

Sorry, but you are an asshole.
Why do you hold her at a standard you obviously don't hold yourself?
And as for being an attention whore, why the fuck do you listen to her then? You don't have to.
She actually uses the attention YOU give her and monetize it.
It is the way of the new world, where guys like Logan Paul gets to use their fame to fight someone like Floyd Mayweather and make millions you won't see in your life.
It is what it is, and now young people make money just by posting whatever bullshit online and getting followers. With followers, companies pays them to use/market products and they make more money, which brings more fans, more adds, more attention, etc.
Blaming/hating her like she's the o0nly one is just stupid.

Fuck, Rogan makes more money from his podcast than he does with his comedy or decades being the voice of the UFC. Will you hate on him too?

You need to relax, see that she is (by far) not the only one, and more importantly, not the most obnoxious/bad one and let her fucking be.
I truly don't understand why ANYONE would feel good for inflicting suffering on someone else.

Dude, are you her boyfriend by any chance? Or one of diots financing her shallow life?
I don't listen to her, never cared for her fighting or promoting herself in any way. But i do know she lied to kids with cancer, one of the reasons she might be not universally liked.
Yes, she is an attention wh.. Now she tries to suck likes out of idiots by pretending to be in a tough spot. She is not and if she was - i wouldn't give a shit. Play stupid games...
 
I imagine it must be terribly crushing to face the reality that you aren't that good at something that you've devotes so many years and so much effort to.

She got by early by the pace she pushed rather than her skills, it's why Rose was able to pick her apart and Waterson sent her packing in less than a round. Those two were the best fighters she fought and both showed she didn't belong.

Throw in the main card slot on last year's fight island in which she offered nothing and was armbarred in minutes.

Hopefully, if she is really that down, that she takes time off and get's what she needs to get her head in order.

I mean she was paid more than most for her BKFC and has not delivered at all. She is tough and grittier than a lot of male fighters but she is subpar in the fighting skills area. Time to maybe reevaluate if she wants to fight and if she can handle the criticism that is going to come her way (for making $$$$ for fighting but not having the skills and results to back up the money and hype).
 
Maybe I'd root for her more if she's shown more dedication to fighting than just trying to be a "pretty fighter".
But who am I to judge her dedication really.... I'm a fucking hobo
See I'm just speaking me mind here.

hahaha I love when retards cry about their hate and then claim: "I don't care about her"
And yet here you are, shitting on her because you have a strong opinion someone you never met is a bad person.
And the best you can make it is that she said she would cut her hair and didn't do it.

Fuck you, buddy. You reek of envy.
 
I hope some of you never have to deal with mental issues. Although by the comments, im willing to bet a good number of you already do, wether you realize it or accept it is a whole other issue

That's an easy shield to use because no one can "make fun" of mental illness; most of the times, you get cancelled right away if you say something that does not constitute a pat in the back.

At least there are still people like Cejudo, that are not affraid to express their opinions (regarding the Simone Biles subject).

Cejudo actually had perspective. Olympian, gold medalist, accomplished athlete. It's a lot easier to hear his perspective on dedication and mental tenacity compared to some sherdogger that can't even get through an 8 hour workday in an office without sherdogging on company dime.

Exactly! Fake ass bitch.

I am SO happy that she is infinitely more economically successful than everyone itt shitting on her. I may just go sign up for her OF just as a sign of support.

I find it far more believable that she has emotional difficulties to contend with than her trying to use it as emotional currency with people as a "fake" when she already has a level of success.

She got pushed in a similar way Sage Northcutt did, she's saying everyone expects her to lose... that's because she isn't that good lol

Of course, anyone who is suicidal should seek help, but she's had an extremely lucky, easy life... saying she has been through a lot and acting like she has had all of this adversity..... if she doesn't like the spotlight go get a regular job like everyone else

How much do you know about her life?
