The actor has been in the industry for over five decades and has been in films such as The Godfather Parts 1, 2, and 3.

The famous individual, who has struggled with mental illness for many years, has not always found fame easy.

Pacino received Oscar and Golden Globe awards for his breakthrough performance in The Godfather. Pacino’s mental health began to worsen as soon as the picture was released and he was placed in the spotlight.

At the time, struggling young actor Pacino was advised by director and actor Lee Strasberg to just “adapt to his new environment,” but Pacino acknowledged that it is not that simple.

“I went through some trauma,” Pacino explained. “For 25 years, I went to counseling five days a week.”

The actor understood that his character in The Godfather II, Michael Corleone, suffered from depression.

The same thing happened when he played an elderly actor who had an affair with a younger woman in the film The Humbling.

“The character is getting older, and the sentiments he has for his job are becoming less available to him, so he tries to compensate and gets a little off and confused, and slides into a form of melancholy that reflects in his work,” the speaker continued.

He says he was initially drawn to the role because of the character’s “tragic fall.”

The actor revealed that he has faced difficulties in the past, but recently remarked that he considers himself “fortunate” and “spared” for not having faced the difficulties that some of his fellow actors have and continue to experience.

“I might be depressed, but I don’t know about it,” he said during the Venice Film Festival.

“People can suffer from depression, which is terrible, can endure for a long time, and is really uncomfortable.”

“I am aware of it because I have previously experienced analogous symptoms, albeit not to the same intensity.” “I feel fortunate and safe.”

Robin Williams’ tragic death in 2014 aroused concerns regarding the actor’s mental health.

Pacino made an effort to lessen his workload in the 1980s by acting in fewer films.

When asked about his time away from the camera, he said, “It was beneficial for me.” It was enjoyable for me. But the money eventually runs out.”

According to the World Health Organization, 5% of adults globally suffer from depression. This translates to about 280 million individuals worldwide.

The vast majority of people who suffer from one of the most common mental health problems do not receive treatment.

Everyone, according to the NHS, will experience depression at some point in their lives. However, when the illness takes over your life and makes it impossible to perform regular tasks, it becomes a problem.

Stress and negative life events are just two of the many possible causes of depression.

Furthermore, depression and physical health are linked. A cardiovascular condition, for example, could lead to depression.

Doctors will describe the severity of the problem once it has been diagnosed. Depression can be mild, moderate, or severe. The most severe kind of depression, making daily functioning nearly impossible.

If you are concerned about your own or someone else’s mental health, see a doctor as soon as possible.
