He also went to rehab for a sleeping pill addiction.
But Alli told Monday Night Football that he was getting back to a better place.
He said: “I’m doing really well, it’s been nearly a year now.
“I’m feeling good, obviously injured which is disappointing.
“I think when I did that interview that I’d said it was the best I’d felt at that time, obviously coming out of rehab and getting ready to be back playing.
“It’s been tough but it’s a journey I’ve been on and I’m enjoying it and just waiting to get back now.
“The reaction and support that I got was obviously overwhelming.
“It was amazing to see how many people that did help and I’m definitely very proud of it.”
