In his latest autobiography 'The Wrong 'Un', Hogg sheds light on his battle with depression and how he took to alcohol.
"I parked my car at Port Beach and went for a walk. I'd stare at the sea and think, I could swim out to that groyne, and if I make it back fine. If I don't make it back well, hard luck," news.com.au said excerpts which appeared in his book.
"I was prepared to let fate decide. I was in a really dark place. I did that Fremantle drive four times. And each time I thought about doing something really drastic," he added.
The 45-year-old veteran also wrote that he started crying uncontrollably while fielding during his seventh and final Test against India in January, 2008 at the Adelaide Oval.
