EXCLUSIVE: Britain's Got Talent star Damien O'Brien has credited the show for turning his life around after a previous suicide attempt - and now he's working harder than ever to reach his dreams

Dazzling the Britain’s Got Talent judges with his mind-bending magic tricks, personal trainer Damien O’Brien oozed charisma.

Damien, 35, says: “People might have seen me up there on stage looking confident. But behind the act has been a long, hard struggle.“I’ve hit my lowest but now I’m working hard to make my dreams come true.” “Her loss was my first experience of grief and I didn’t know how to deal with it.” As he worked hard on becoming a magician, he had no colleagues around him and felt isolated.Damien said: “My doctor really listened. He said I could call him any time of the day, promised he’d make time for me to see him whenever I needed to, and said I shouldn’t feel alone.“I was diagnosed with depression and anxiety and referred for therapy, and the counselling really helped.
