The Emmy nominee has been transparent about other health struggles in the past — namely, his epilepsy battle.
Glover had his first seizure at 15 and treated the disease with medication for the next two decades.
However, he grew to “recognize when it was happening,” he wrote in a blog post, per BlackDoctor.
“I could say, wherever I was, ‘Something is happening to me. Please grab me. Please hold me. I’m about to have a seizure,'” the Grammy nominee noted.
He recalled once feeling an episode coming on during a play and repeatedly telling himself backstage: “I will not have this seizure.”
Glover remembered, “Each time I got a bit stronger, and the symptoms began to diminish to the point where I was ready to go on stage.”
He has not suffered a seizure since the age of 35.
