PJ said it was after a late-night phone call to a friend that he accepted he needed to seek help and said it was the "best thing" he's ever done.

"I'm very lucky I had my friend Stephanie to ring and say you know 'I don't think I'm going to get through the end of the day', I remember saying and she had [previously] sent me a message that said 'No time is too early, no time's too late, I'm always here for your pal I love you, whatever you need'.

"So I rang at four o'clock in the morning I went up to her house and she took me for a bowl of porridge - how she found porridge in Dublin at four o'clock in the morning I will never know!

"But that was kind of the moment that I accepted I had to go into the hospital and I went into the hospital and it literally changed my life. It was the best thing I've ever done to be honest.
