Former tennis star Jelena Dokic says nearly took her own life due to mental health struggles
tennis player Jelena Dokic nearly took her own life in April during struggles with her mental health, the Australian said on social media. Dokic, who played her last professional match in 2014 and has worked as a commentator on Australian TV in recent years, said she had been battling "constant feelings of sadness and pain". "Such a vicious cycle in my head. The result: almost jumping off my 26th floor balcony on April 28th," the 39-year-old wrote in a post. "I just wanted the pain and the suffering to stop. I pulled myself of the edge, don’t even know how I managed to do it." Dokic has been open about her mental health battles and said in her 2017 book "Unbreakable" that she had suffered years of physical and emotional abuse from her father. Born in the former Yugoslavia, Dokic said on Instagram that the last six months had been tough but seeking professional help had saved her life.
