Serena Williams<\/strong> is getting candid about her mental health.<\/p>\n

On Tuesday, the former tennis world champ let her guard down on X<\/strong> (Twitter<\/strong>) with a vulnerable post about her state of being. She penned:<\/p>\n

\u201cI am not ok today. And that\u2019s ok to not be ok. No one is ok every single day.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cOk to not be ok\u201d — powerful words. It\u2019s true, not everyone can be good ALL the time. Not even the world\u2019s top athletes! And there ain\u2019t nothing wrong with that!<\/p>\n

The mother of two extended her wise words to her followers, sharing a bit of hopeful advice:<\/p>\n

\u201cIf you are not ok today I\u2019m with you. There\u2019s always tomorrow Love you.\u201d<\/p>\n

A true champ! Fans in the replies seemed to appreciate her honesty, sending her positive wishes:<\/p>\n

\u201cThank you for being open about your feelings. Your honesty is appreciated. Remember to practice self-compassion and reach out to loved ones when you need support. Together, we can get through the challenging moments. Sending you virtual hugs and encouragement. #YouAreNotAlone”<\/p>\n

\u201cUnderstood find a positive connection\u201d<\/p>\n

And it looks like that\u2019s exactly what she did!<\/p>\n

As Perezcious readers know, the 42-year-old welcomed her second daughter, Adira River<\/strong>, with husband Alexis Ohanian<\/strong> back in August. The two also share 5-year-old Olympia Ohanian.<\/strong> But just hours after she posted about not being okay, she shared a pic snuggled up with her infant, who was wrapped in a polka dot blanket and all nestled in her momma\u2019s embrace. She captioned the pic:<\/p>\n

\u201cThis makes me so happy\u201d<\/p>\n

Awww.<\/p>\n

While it\u2019s not clear exactly what Serena is going through at the moment, she\u2019s been vocal about struggling with depression in the past.<\/p>\n

We hope she feels better soon! Share some love in the comments down below…<\/p>\n
