Devon Murray played Seamus Finnegan in the series.
Yesterday was World Mental Health Day as various organisations, like Pieta House, did their very best to encourage people to openly talk about any issues that they may be having with their mental health.
Harry Potter actor Devon Murray chose this particular day to open up about his battle with depression.
The Irish actor, 27, played Seamus Finnigan in the world famous franchise and he revealed on Twitter that he has had suicidal thoughts.
Murray stated that he only recently sought professional help and since doing so, it has improved his mental health.
I've been battling depression in silence for ten years & only recently spoke about it and has made a huge difference #worldmentalhealthday
