Mitchell Johnson's career in cricket has been marked by highs and lows

In the 2009 and 2010-11 Ashes series, his bowling was criticized and mocked by the English crowd, with a chant mocking his wayward bowling.

This affected his confidence and he struggled with his bowling, leading to questions about his future in the game.

However, he made a remarkable comeback in the 2013-14 Ashes series, where he was one of the most intimidating fast-bowling performances of all time.

He took 37 wickets, breaking the record for the most wickets in a single Ashes series, and helped Australia win the series.

Johnson's success was despite struggling with mental demons, including doubts about his ability and negative thoughts, which he was able to overcome by focusing on his family and using the song "Let it Go" from Frozen as a mental block.

In this article, the Australian cricketer Mitchell Johnson is discussed, focusing on his struggles with depression and how he overcame them.

Johnson was a favorite target for England's Barmy Army during a series in 2015, which contributed to his struggles with depression.

He spoke about how he was thinking too much about what he needed to do and overthinking, which led to him being unable to recover from it.

Johnson experienced a spell out of cricket due to stress fractures and had to work as a van driver, but this helped him rediscover his love for the game and channel some of the early awe and wonder.

He returned to the game differently, with a bushy moustache that he credited for giving him "that little bit of extra aggro".

Mitchell Johnson was a key player for the Australian cricket team during the 2013-2014 Ashes series, which was a career high point for him.

He was known for his fast bowling and the angle of his deliveries, which were difficult for batsmen to handle.

He took 37 wickets in the series, including a spell of six wickets for 16 runs in one innings, and was named man of the series.
