Oscar De La Hoya Thought About Suicide

From the outside, it appears as if Oscar De La Hoya has it all. He’s a boxing legend with a flourishing business, good looks and a likeable personality. However, Oscar De La Hoya recently admitted that he thought about suicide after hitting rock bottom in the last few years.

Oscar De La Hoya’s rock bottom included alcohol and cocaine abuse. The former boxer also admitted to cheating on his wife. Though he was clear to say his cheating ways weren’t as bad as the Tiger Woods sex scandal.

In an attempt to get healthy physically and emotionally, Oscar De La Hoya has been in rehab. He claims to now have three months clean of all alcohol and drugs. Plus, he has reunited with his wife after separating for a little while.

“The Golden Boy,” as he’s nicknamed, seems to be well on his way to recovery. Good luck to him and his family. Let’s hope those thoughts of suicide are far in the past.

    it,s not all that surprising wealth and success has never been the road to peace. This can really mess with our heads because we are inundated with the faulse message that they will.Oscar and everyone else is going to have to find peace from inside to be healthy and not from outside gains such as success and money.
