Your last comment is cute. My brother in law dealt with depression and was bi-polar. He was with my sister for 15 years and we were very close and hung out all the time.Have you ever heard him speak? He is not a moron. He's quite intelligent and thoughtful. He wouldn't have near the support from fans he's had if he was actually a moron. He's a guy you want to see succeed because he actually is a good person who has mental health issues.
I don't know if he's seeking the help he needs or not it, but as someone experienced in dealing with other people's addictions and mental illnesses, I do know that punishing him by taking football away was never the correct answer and did him no favors.
It makes me sad that people take the misguided stances they do and are so closed minded that they never question them. It makes me sadder that people can see other people as less than and have no empathy for them.
These types of mindsets are exactly why the country is in such disrepair. I'll send you both thoughts and prayers that you learn to feel empathy.
I saw his problems. I saw his good days and bad days. I knew his meds that he was suppose to take, but all he wanted to do was drink and smoke pot. He lost job after job because of it.
He knew he was a fuck up, but he didn’t care. Eventually my sister wasn’t able to handle his idiotic thought process and left him. He eventually hung himself. His family blamed my sister, I blamed his family and himself for blaming his issues on things out of his control, but when he was on his meds consistently, he was fine. He just chose not to and then had a “mental health”‘excuse.
It’s weak and bullshit. Don’t tell me all his problems are a mental thing, no, it’s not.
