It is such a big part of my life. It’s a 24/7 job, and there’s so much to it," he continued. "That’s really what I want to do: help people, whether you’re depressed, you’re struggling with something that is having a negative effect on your body.

I mean it could be anything, and there’s no judgment."Presley also reflected on how his own experiences could potentially help others. He said, "I’ve seen a lot of stuff and I’ve learned a lot of things. What I hope I can do is have made the mistakes for some other people, so they don’t have to make the same mistakes that I made."
