Alessandro Gassmann’s disease

The actor has often confessed to having suffered from panic attacks and having overcome them thanks to the analysis:

I had the first one in the theater. Now they have passed, at first thanks to the drugs, then with the analysis, the most important gift given to myself. I’ve learned that I don’t have to be the one to solve all the world’s problems. Before, it seemed inappropriate to me to ask for favors, now I have learned to rely on close people. I have little fears left. That of dogs, because as a boy I saw one bite a woman, and the fear of swimming where I don’t see the bottom, but then I swim anyway.
