Everson Griffen, the former Minnesota Vikings defensive end, has been in the spotlight not just for his explosive presence on the field, but also for his personal battles off the field. Recently, Griffen has been open about his struggles with mental health, specifically his bipolar diagnosis.

In December 2021, Griffen faced a mental health crisis at his home, which led him to publicly acknowledge his condition through a candid Instagram post. This was a significant step for Griffen, who decided to embrace his bipolar diagnosis and become an advocate for mental health.

The journey to this public acknowledgment of his mental health struggles can be traced back to the sudden passing of Griffen’s mother, which left a deep emotional wound. While he continued to excel on the field, Griffen privately began slipping into a dark place, as he described it. It was this personal loss that triggered his mental health battle, leading him to seek help and support.

In 2024, Griffen used social media to open up about his diagnosis after a roadside incident raised concerns about his well-being. Instead of shying away from the topic, he addressed it head-on and offered advice to others facing similar challenges.

Recently, Griffen found himself under scrutiny again when a Delta flight he was on was diverted back to Chicago due to what the airline described as “unruly behavior.” Griffen immediately responded to the reports, denying any unruly behavior and questioning the airline’s decision. Witnesses offered conflicting accounts of the incident, with some suggesting a confrontation arose when Griffen allegedly tried to smoke in the plane’s bathroom.

Through all these challenges, Griffen has remained resilient and determined to take control of his mental health. By speaking out about his struggles and seeking help when needed, he has become a beacon of hope for others facing similar battles. Griffen’s journey is a reminder that mental health is just as important as physical health, and it’s okay to seek support and be open about one’s struggles.

As Everson Griffen continues to navigate his mental health journey, he serves as an inspiration for athletes and individuals alike to prioritize their well-being and seek help when needed. His story is a reminder that vulnerability is not a weakness, but a strength that can lead to healing and growth.
