Los Angeles Lakers star LeBron James is one of the greatest NBA players of all time. Whether it’s his undeniable success on the court or his billionaire status off it, the 37-year-old constantly feels like he is winning.
That being said – you never really know what is going on in a person’s head.
Case in point: James’ bizarre cry for help on Twitter this week.
In a brief but worrying message on Thursday, James sent out this tweet:
It’s a weird feeling to feel so alone sometimes! 💭
— LeBron James (@KingJames) May 19, 2022
Understandably, fans responded immediately:
It happens though Perk. It’s a part of being alive. No amount of money, people, things. Can stave off the feeling of loneliness that onsets ever so often. The important thing is that people need to know it’s temporary. “No feeling is final”

Doesn’t change the fact that these are human emotions. Just because he has all that that doesn’t devoid him of feeling.

You have a family bro. Go be with them

James subsequently followed up with this tweet:
But sometimes you just want to be alone

So make of that what you will.
James has been in the news quite a bit over the past few weeks. Between his son Bronny’s controversial photos with his new girlfriend and the never-ending drama surrounding the Lakers, it has been one issue after another.

It’s is unclear if that or something else is what is weighing heavy on James’ mind.
In any case, hopefully he realizes that there are a lot of people out there who support him.
And if he is having any sort of mental health issues, help is a mere call, conversation or message away.
