Olympian-turned-TV star Caitlyn Jenner came close to taking her own life at the height of her gender identity struggle.
The Keeping Up With The Kardashians star, who shed her past persona as Bruce Jenner earlier this year, has documented her new life as a woman in a reality series
called I Am Cait, and she makes a startling revelation during the first episode.
Jenner confesses she struggled with suicidal feelings and came close to taking her own life with a gun she kept in the house.
She says, "I've been in some dark places, I have been in my house with a gun and said, 'Let's just end it right there, no more pain, no more suffering', that struggle,
it's real and I've been there... I was an isolationist, I isolated myself from the world because I didn't fit in, I was kind of stuck in the middle. Caitlyn fits into
society better than Bruce. I'm very optimistic about the future."
I Am Cait kicks off on July 26.
