Yeah right wonderful person ... This guy is just hypocritical and he's always been. Plus he's got no shame because "ha un bidone dell'immondizia al posto del cuore"
This man is a legend, the reason he is one of the greatests goalkeepers in history is not only because he has the best technical or physical skills, it's because of his mental and emotional strength to get through troubles and defeats, and learn from them. I think we all can learn a lot from Gigi
For me the best GK is Oliver Kahn because of his abilities and mentality which are so much underrated from many people but huge respect for Buffon - a living legend!
I am sure that if you feel your words, it is because in some way you relate to them. Everyone is depressed some times, some more than others. That's life and it's normal. Nevertheless, do not only empathise with his words, but learn from them. Learn to listen to yourself, but also speak out when you need to.
"If you always seek external solutions to your internal problems, you will never be able to really solve them." and THAT is what we, as a society, on a global level would need to accept. maximum respect for him coming out with this
@@Drobexxx I understand, but clinical depression is not a purely psychological issue, but rather a neurochemical alteration which does need pharmacological support more often than not. I incline to think that Buffon didn't have actual depression, but more of a psychological issue.
@@rcic3706 this is technically true but ignores the fact that anti depressants are nevertheless massively overprescribed to people who are depressed because of their life circumstances and psychological mental blocks. some people need them but many other people need behavioral changes and changes in their learned thinking patterns to solve the underlying problem. for those people drugs are papering over the real issue.
@@nightmoose I tend to agree with you for the most part. I would argue, though, that what you're referring to is not actually major/endogenous depression, for which pharmacological support (alongside psychotherapy/psychoeducation) may be the only viable option.
Guys remember this: Gigi has been lucky, because he had just a minor episode of depression, so he was able to overcome it in short time and without the need of drugs. It's not always this simple. If you feel like him look for help from a good psychologist, but also talking about it with the people around you may be a nice first step in the right direction.
Yes it's true. I had depression and O.c.d. for 6 years, i think that is very important talk to people of your depression and what is in your mind. It's very important to use your personality always, and controll your mind. If you controll your mind and your thinking you controll your life.
The richer they're the more depressed they feel, is that a coincidence? You all need to work in the fields a bit to the point where you'll not have the strength in the evening to think you're depressed 😂
I'm a Milan supporter. Gigi Buffon is definitely an Italian football legend, it will be very sad when he retires. I think we've been so lucky to have him as opponent and national goalkeeper. God bless him.

Io sono britannico e questo video mi ha colpito in un modo forte. Da noi è raro trovare un calciatore attuale che parla così. Non ‘solo’ un giocatore, ma un giocatore così famoso. Come tanti, ho sofferto di sentimenti cupi per un periodo (troppo) lungo. Non credevo di avere gli strumenti emozionali di gestire la situazione da solo. Non credevo di avere qualcuno con cui sarei stato in grado di condividere tutto quello che sentivo. Se noi avessimo avuto una figura di riferimento come Gigi, forse non sarebbe stato così difficile. Non siamo freddi, ma non abbiamo l’apri pista ancora. Ma le cose cambiarono.

Although I really admire the way he made sense of his depression and how he was able to get out of it wiser, taking medication is nothing to be ashamed of. I've been depressed for more than 8 years and I tried several types of therapy (just to avoid meds) and only last year when I was put on antidepressants that I finally started to feel better.
In some cases medication can help, but in other cases it makes things worse. Every person reacts differently to certain substances. Unfortunately in my family there have been two cases where medication made things worse ...
Stop going to therapy and taking medication, all of this is detrimental for yourself. Start boxing, learn to be a stoic, travel and enjoy life instead of moaning about what's wrong in your life.
@@fulippuannaghiti1965 I think he is not moaning about his life, he is just talking about his depression. You wouldn't tell a diabetic to leave insulin and travel more. You wouldn't tell a scorbutic person to leave his vitamin C. Depression is a chemical imbalance that sometimes can be solved by the body on it's own, but sometimes additional help is needed.

I was depressed because I wanted to see the world grey and the glass half empty, I changed myself so my depression disappeared and I stopped paying those thieves called therapists, which without you being depressed they would be working at McDonald's. Buffon should wake up every morning and be grateful of what he achieved, selfishness and ungratefulness are the first cause of depression.
@@fulippuannaghiti1965 Everyone find their way out of depression. I'm glad you found yours. Even so, I think you would benefit by learning about depression. It's not just about feeling sad, it's a measurable imbalance in the body's production of dopamine, serotonin, GABA and other neurotransmitters. It's perfectly comparable to diabetes or scurvy. When the imbalance is small, it can be fixed with having healthy habits, same as vitamin C deficiency can be cured just by having a lemonade. When the imbalance is big, solutions at other level are needed. There is no reason to feel ashamed when someone needs help. Many people die every day to self harm for avoiding this help.
Didn't think I could love this guy more than I already do, but there he is, talking so honest with us about himself and his thoughts. Thanks Gigi. "If you always seek external solutions to your internal problems, you will never be able to really solve them and you will never be able to judge yourself and value yourself for what you're worth, you'll always be looking for external help, alibis, excuses. Instead, life must be lived according to your limits and your virtues."
"if you always seek external solutions to your internal problems, you will never be able to really solve them" This is a very true and spiritual principle that he talks about.. Cool and inspiring to see!
@@66kaisersoza I never implied that it could be solved by thought alone. But I do think we underrestimate the power of thought and intentions. Either way yes ofcourse there's a chemical inbalance but most of the time this really isnt the case.
@@Tuxedosnake00 true about Tuscan being at the root of Italian language but Buffon’s accent is not typically Tuscan. His accent has features closer to Northern Italian varieties (called gallo-italic) typical of his birthplace (Carrara): geographically Tuscany but linguistically not
Dear Gigi, your message to hope is wonderful. The mind is important like the body, but sometimes the depression is an enemy very strong to kill.Sometimes the medicines are necessary unfortunately.
@XZSANTOXSZ 'many of them are caused by genetics and chemical disorders'. This may be true but for the most time depression is caused by situatiational factors and mostly nurtured. To treat these factors, medication is NOT THE SOLUTION. Like Buffon said: 'you have to look internally to find what has bothering you'!
@@lucaaz14 But even in those cases medicine is sometimes needed not make the patient able to overcome their struggles when they are to deep in the depression. And the treatment of depression is very difficult because no depression is the same.
@@milliecookie8539 I completely agree with Lucas here. Medication should be taken with a lot of care. Everyone can react differently to certain substances, and unfortunately I have witnessed two cases in my family where medication made things worse. In some cases medication definitely helps, but in my experience a lot of psychiatrist nowadays prescribe pharmaceuticals way too often, just because it is a lot easier for them than trying to find potential causes of the issue and suggest personal, non-pharmaceutical treatment. Another thing that might play its role in this is that drug companies make a lot of profit selling those pharmaceuticals ...
Io parlo poco l'italiano mas, Io comprendo tutto o che questo uomo parla. Che bela a forma de parlare a chiarezza e impressionante. Grazie mile Gigi. Molto buono ti ascoltare.
how does a man's leg start to shake from depression and not when he's playing in front of the entire world in the world cup final? depression is just something else man
I have been suffering from illness for 11 months now and I also got out of bed and felt my legs shaking before like Buffon said. I really appreciate this. I know that the mind and body are one and not separate I need to change my actions and internal patterns. I love you Buffon thank you ❤
The year after he suffered from depression he went to win the World Cup thanks to his saves Italy was crowned champions first Goal kipper in history to arrive 2nd in ballon D’or list !!! during that tournament his eyes were like he was on another dimension… He turned depression into Greatness
What a human being. I remember him rushing to congratulate Martin O'Neill and Roy Keane for the Republic of Ireland's victory over his own country at Euro 2016. That’s a class guy. Love from Ireland 🇮🇪
What a humble guy! Depression is a human epidemic that, thankfully, isn't regarded as taboo to discuss. I battled with it for years and it's encouraging that people who are at the top of their game also struggle with this debilitating condition
I wish I could shake his hand one day. He is a living legend making football a great passion. What we watch today is business with no place for happiness. Gigi, you are great! Thank you for being a part of my childhood.
"I must prove to myself that I deserve the gift of life" Wow, that's profound. Was not able to get over my depression without medication despite all the therapies in the world. But that phrase speaks volume to me.
This is the most organic and practical video about mental health anyone has ver talked about. And it happened to be coming out of the mouth of the greatest goalkeeper of my generation
Profound words from a legend. Depression seems to manifest differently in some but so similar too. He is right that it is something that can and should be talked about, nothing to hide or be ashamed of. Find those “tools” as he put it, that do help. I’ve suffered for years with it and my heart goes out to anyone else going through it and those around us that it can effect too.
Wow, Gigi, you amazed me. I have been your fan throughout my life. I never thought a massively accomplished person like you go through depression. I applaud you for opening up and sharing your internal struggle with brilliant narration. Simply put, my respect for you has gone through the roof.
Before watching this video.. I knew from his eyes that he was deep, creative and having some arts in his spirit… Buffon was my favorite soccer player, whenever I see him I feel some energy
Grazie Gigi, per questi consigli molto saggi. Difendiamoci dal male che il mondo può causarci non arrendendoci e lavorando su noi stessi. Possiamo sempre migliorare ed essere soddisfatti, giorno dopo giorno, un sasso alla volta.
Gigi is such a gentle soul and a very intelligent and deep man. I’m so glad he was able to escape the entrapment of depression on his own merits and without the aid of pharmaceuticals. You are the greatest goalkeeper I’ve ever seen, and a far better human being. Keep fighting day by day and may God bless you amico!
Love this man's honesty. Depression is a terrible illness and can be debilitating for most. The fact that he went on to be one of the best goalkeepers ever, in a pressure cooker environment, says everything about the man.
Ive got more from 11 minutes listening to Buffon articulate this so beautifully than years of therapy, books, happy pills and self indulgence. Just wish I could have watched it 5 years ago an saved myself a lot of money
Praying for this men that he gets saved and finds real peace. Really a down to earth person with a humble heart.. how precious is that ! god bless him :)
Thank you Gigi! I didn't know you suffered from depression. I too suffer from depression. You and Juventus have given me joy and comfort because I know you and Juve never let me down! God bless you Gigi!
Uno dei migliori discorsi di sempre gigi mi hai fatto sognare grazie è stato fantastico, mi piace soprattutto dove non ti metti sopra gli altri e resti umile sei un grande

When the imbalance is big, solutions at other level are needed. There is no reason to feel ashamed when someone needs help. Many people die every day to self harm for avoiding this help.
One of the best goalkeepers of all time.....complete as a player and as a person...sensible, kind hearted and down to earth...
One of a kind player because he always was more than a player.
Didn't think I could love this guy more than I already do, but there he is, talking so honest with us about himself and his thoughts. Thanks Gigi.
"If you always seek external solutions to your internal problems, you will never be able to really solve them and you will never be able to judge yourself and value yourself for what you're worth, you'll always be looking for external help, alibis, excuses. Instead, life must be lived according to your limits and your virtues."
My Idol obviously. when I was young.. This man was #1 Goalkeeper in the World..
Such an intelligent and well-spoken guy for a footballer. Should be a motivational speaker.
I keep coming back to this .
One of the greatest goalkeepers
One of the greatest Italian footballers
One of the greatest human beings to play the game.
"if you always seek external solutions to your internal problems, you will never be able to really solve them"
This is a very true and spiritual principle that he talks about.. Cool and inspiring to see!
But depression can be attributed to a chemical imbalance.
Depression can't be solved by thought alone
@@66kaisersoza I never implied that it could be solved by thought alone. But I do think we underrestimate the power of thought and intentions. Either way yes ofcourse there's a chemical inbalance but most of the time this really isnt the case.
I’m watching this as Italian practice as he has such a lovely clean and clear accent
Me too. I was
True, and his talk is really articulate
He is from Toscana. A region in Italy where they say the Italian language has its roots... That's why he speaks clear italian
@@Tuxedosnake00 true about Tuscan being at the root of Italian language but Buffon’s accent is not typically Tuscan. His accent has features closer to Northern Italian varieties (called gallo-italic) typical of his birthplace (Carrara): geographically Tuscany but linguistically not
Oh, no, no, no! He sounds SO Northern Italian ! Nothing "Tuscan" about him ! I assume nobody here is Italian...
This is a kind of man that when you see him, there is some deep vibe..
Dear Gigi, your message to hope is wonderful. The mind is important like the body, but sometimes the depression is an enemy very strong to kill.Sometimes the medicines are necessary unfortunately.
He wasn’t sick or depressed. He was just bored to do the same thing every goddamn day, that’s it.
@@RSteam87 how do you know that? you are his gf or what? lol kid
@XZSANTOXSZ 'many of them are caused by genetics and chemical disorders'. This may be true but for the most time depression is caused by situatiational factors and mostly nurtured. To treat these factors, medication is NOT THE SOLUTION.
Like Buffon said: 'you have to look internally to find what has bothering you'!
@@lucaaz14 But even in those cases medicine is sometimes needed not make the patient able to overcome their struggles when they are to deep in the depression. And the treatment of depression is very difficult because no depression is the same.
@@milliecookie8539 I completely agree with Lucas here. Medication should be taken with a lot of care. Everyone can react differently to certain substances, and unfortunately I have witnessed two cases in my family where medication made things worse. In some cases medication definitely helps, but in my experience a lot of psychiatrist nowadays prescribe pharmaceuticals way too often, just because it is a lot easier for them than trying to find potential causes of the issue and suggest personal, non-pharmaceutical treatment. Another thing that might play its role in this is that drug companies make a lot of profit selling those pharmaceuticals ...
Io parlo poco l'italiano mas, Io comprendo tutto o che questo uomo parla. Che bela a forma de parlare a chiarezza e impressionante. Grazie mile Gigi. Molto buono ti ascoltare.
This interview is pure "ART"
A legend ❤
how does a man's leg start to shake from depression and not when he's playing in front of the entire world in the world cup final?
depression is just something else man
True, great comment.
He did’t play at that time ..
I went through the same thing. It is truly terrifying to the point I went to the ER for them to kick me out and say you are perfectly fine.
@@rinolino7246 of course he became WC with Italy in 2006
I have been suffering from illness for 11 months now and I also got out of bed and felt my legs shaking before like Buffon said. I really appreciate this. I know that the mind and body are one and not separate I need to change my actions and internal patterns. I love you Buffon thank you ❤
Grazie Gigi per questa intervista
why the hell does this video only so little views?
Living legend! 41 years old and still one of the best!
And humble man... But to be honest. When you have money, you will make it.
The year after he suffered from depression he went to win the World Cup thanks to his saves Italy was crowned champions
first Goal kipper in history to arrive 2nd in ballon D’or list !!! during that tournament his eyes were like he was on another dimension…
He turned depression into Greatness
Il portiere più forte della storia del calcio mondiale.
Mudian ma non la alza nemmeno se si taglia lo scroto
Concordo
.. è Iker Casillas.
Non solo il non la alza ma anche il "miglior portiere" non c'entra popo popo na mazza in sto video
Un commento di sotto: "one of the greatest sportsman ever, now he maturated to something much greater". Ecco cosa c'entra ao
What a human being. I remember him rushing to congratulate Martin O'Neill and Roy Keane for the Republic of Ireland's victory over his own country at Euro 2016. That’s a class guy. Love from Ireland 🇮🇪
What a humble guy! Depression is a human epidemic that, thankfully, isn't regarded as taboo to discuss. I battled with it for years and it's encouraging that people who are at the top of their game also struggle with this debilitating condition
Very impressed! A big man doing the right descisions. Makes me proud of this fighter ♡
I wish I could shake his hand one day. He is a living legend making football a great passion. What we watch today is business with no place for happiness. Gigi, you are great! Thank you for being a part of my childhood.
"I must prove to myself that I deserve the gift of life" Wow, that's profound. Was not able to get over my depression without medication despite all the therapies in the world. But that phrase speaks volume to me.
This is the most organic and practical video about mental health anyone has ver talked about. And it happened to be coming out of the mouth of the greatest goalkeeper of my generation
One of the best interviews I have ever watched. Respect 🙌
My favorite sportman is you Gigi and Rafael Nadal.
No one else can express so much will in their sports.
That’s why you are a LEGEND
Italian players are all bloody philosophers. Love it
I've watched him play over more than 15 years as goalkeeper. Never seen him in this light before though. Respect to this man and his vision.
Grazie Signore. Your sincerity, generosity and sensitivity are an example. And so is your career.
Profound words from a legend. Depression seems to manifest differently in some but so similar too. He is right that it is something that can and should be talked about, nothing to hide or be ashamed of. Find those “tools” as he put it, that do help. I’ve suffered for years with it and my heart goes out to anyone else going through it and those around us that it can effect too.
Every word of Gigi makes sense. This should be a must-watch video for college students, athletes, and literally everyone.
Wow, Gigi, you amazed me. I have been your fan throughout my life. I never thought a massively accomplished person like you go through depression. I applaud you for opening up and sharing your internal struggle with brilliant narration. Simply put, my respect for you has gone through the roof.
Before watching this video.. I knew from his eyes that he was deep, creative and having some arts in his spirit… Buffon was my favorite soccer player, whenever I see him I feel some energy
I like how he's able to express himself so elegantly, just wow
Grazie Gigi, per questi consigli molto saggi. Difendiamoci dal male che il mondo può causarci non arrendendoci e lavorando su noi stessi. Possiamo sempre migliorare ed essere soddisfatti, giorno dopo giorno, un sasso alla volta.
Buffon, un grande portiere e un grandissimo uomo!
Gigi is such a gentle soul and a very intelligent and deep man. I’m so glad he was able to escape the entrapment of depression on his own merits and without the aid of pharmaceuticals. You are the greatest goalkeeper I’ve ever seen, and a far better human being. Keep fighting day by day and may God bless you amico!
Words fail to describe how powerful this is. Thank you Buffon.
Love this man's honesty. Depression is a terrible illness and can be debilitating for most. The fact that he went on to be one of the best goalkeepers ever, in a pressure cooker environment, says everything about the man.
How can there be people dissliking this interview. Grande Gigi!
Ive got more from 11 minutes listening to Buffon articulate this so beautifully than years of therapy, books, happy pills and self indulgence. Just wish I could have watched it 5 years ago an saved myself a lot of money
Praying for this men that he gets saved and finds real peace.
Really a down to earth person with a humble heart.. how precious is that !
god bless him :)
Legend. His words are golden. He is not only a GREAT sportmen but a GREAT intellect.
sei una grandisimma persona i un grandisimmo giocatore, gigi. grazie per parlare di tutto questio
Thank you Gigi! I didn't know you suffered from depression. I too suffer from depression. You and Juventus have given me joy and comfort because I know you and Juve never let me down! God bless you Gigi!
Letterly melt my heart, so much humanity for a world cup champion
He’s so impressive. Sensitive, well spoken and enlightening.
Por algo es un grande. En el futbol y en la vida. Grande campione!!
Una delle più belle e utili interviste che abbia mai ascoltato e sarà di enorme, ENORME aiuto per moltissime persone
Uno dei migliori discorsi di sempre gigi mi hai fatto sognare grazie è stato fantastico, mi piace soprattutto dove non ti metti sopra gli altri e resti umile sei un grande
How can you dislike the words from this wise man?
’Non avere paura di dimostrare quello che veramente sei’
Greetings from Belgrade - Serbia for legend Buffon from fun of FK PARTIZAN!!!
Good luck Maestro!!! 🏁
I already knew this man was a legend but with this vid he went directly to the olympus
This channel is SO underrated. It really puts out some of the best content I've seen on youtube. Keep it up!
A Real Man is not afraid to show weakness even tear time to time.👑❤
