Connor Ball has been impressing viewers across the country with his amazing skating capability on ITV's Dancing On Ice.Wowing the judges week on week with his courageous dance moves and his willingness to push himself further, the 25-year-old musician has certainly earned his place in this year's competition.But although he has gained legions of fans from his singing career, and his presence on Dancing on Ice, Connor - who makes up one-fourth of The Vamps- has previously battled with panic attacks, depression and generalised anxiety order.Daily Star has taken a deeper look inside the star's health battle and how he has learnt to overcome it.In 2018, Connor appeared on ITV's This Morning and spoke to therapists Nik and Eva Speakman regarding his crippling fear of touring.Speaking openly to presenters Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield, Connor revealed: "I suffer with generalised anxiety order, panic attacks and depression as well."In the band, it has affected me because I don’t go to as many things as I would like to or should do.
I would like to be going out and seeing more people."When the TV therapists dug a bit deeper, it became evident that the musician felt uneasy when he had to travel to different countries to tour and the problems derived from when he was a lot younger.Talking about a terrifying incident that happened to him in Greece, he recalled: "I remember when we were on holiday and I had to swim under a big rock to get to a beach and I got stuck and I was like ‘I am not going to be able to breathe'."He also spoke candidly about an experience that left him shaken when he was six years old.The star continued: "When I was six I was in Thailand and there were a load of monkey nuts on the table.
