Pennsylvania Sen. John Fetterman released from hospital after treatment for depression
Pennsylvania Sen. John Fetterman has been released from the hospital after receiving treatment for depression. The senator was admitted to the hospital earlier this month after experiencing symptoms of depression.
Fetterman, who is known for his progressive views and outspoken personality, has been open about his struggles with mental health in the past. In a statement released by his office, Fetterman thanked his supporters for their well wishes and expressed his gratitude for the care he received while in the hospital.
"I want to thank everyone who has reached out to me during this difficult time," Fetterman said. "Your support means the world to me. I also want to thank the doctors and nurses who took care of me while I was in the hospital. They were truly amazing."
Fetterman's hospitalization sparked a conversation about mental health and the stigma surrounding it. Many of his colleagues and supporters took to social media to express their support for the senator and to encourage others to seek help if they are struggling with mental health issues.
"John's courage in speaking openly about his struggles with depression is an inspiration to us all," said Pennsylvania Gov. Tom Wolf. "We need to continue to break down the stigma surrounding mental health and make sure that everyone has access to the care they need."
Fetterman's release from the hospital is a positive step forward in his recovery, but he acknowledges that his journey is far from over. In his statement, he encouraged others who are struggling with mental health issues to seek help and to know that they are not alone.
"I know that there are many people out there who are struggling with mental health issues," Fetterman said. "I want you to know that you are not alone. There is help available, and it's okay to ask for it. We need to continue to talk about mental health and break down the stigma surrounding it. Together, we can make a difference."
