Anne-Elisabeth Lemoine is on all fronts! This Monday, April 10, 2023, the host piloted a new number of “It’s up to you”. In addition to Hamida Aman, Samuel Etienne and Jean Massiet, the main interested party had the honor of welcoming Thierry Lhermitte and Camille Lacourt on the set of his talk show. Facing the camera, the two men confided at length on a delicate subject launched by Matthieu Belliard: mental health.
Being a key figure in the sports world, the darling of Alice Detollenaere has decided to use his notoriety to highlight a long taboo theme in France: burnout. “I think it’s important… First of all, it has to be democratized”analyzed the happy father of two children. “What was really close to my heart is to say that it happens to strong people. People who have no objective, who have no resistance and who do not want to exceed their limits, they will not not go into burnout”
Having himself experienced this syndrome of exhaustion, the main interested party knows what he is talking about: “When people go through this, this difficult moment, they are ashamed. I wanted to say that it happens to strong people, to people who accept something that is not acceptable and at some point it breaks down, so let’s start with it. talk”. It’s a “defeat” who also recorded his descent into hell.

“What is your reward tonight Thierry?”
“I had worked for years to get to the Olympic Games and I’m fourth. There I tell myself that the ten, fifteen years I spent in a swimming pool were for nothing”, added Camille Lacourt. “One morning, we don’t get up. We stay in bed and it lasts, a week, two weeks and I had this image where I had the impression of falling, of being in an incessant free fall and at some point I told myself that I was going hit the ground and then I could get up.”
At worst, the ex-companion of Valérie Bègue then took time for him to be able to bounce back better: “The key for me was to set myself very small but concrete goals. It was going to shave my beard, going to take a shower, having set meal times.” Like him, Thierry Lhermitte was also the victim of a burn-out. And the testimony of the latter obviously touched him.
“What’s crazy is that psychotherapy in mild depression in any case, does the job”said the actor. “Thought makes chemistry, and chemistry makes thought. It’s the magnificent box that we have in the head and the living”. “What is your reward tonight Thierry?”, dropped Anne-Elisabeth Lemoine, teasing. “What is it… Oh I can’t tell you”, replied the husband of Hélène Lhermitte to close their exchange.
A brief answer which had the merit of amusing the whole assembly. Mainly the presenter: “I was sure it was something not to be confessed!”. Unfortunately for her, Thierry Lhermitte refused to say more. Damage !
