Of course, they have money, they must be happy and free of worries in the world.
One night your sitting on your lounge in Adelaide, next day your billeted out to a family you don't know in Sydney for an unknown amount of time, pretty easy transition.

I just know they would be a lot happier than people at the same age who are incarcerated, homeless, dependent on drugs or fighting in wars in general.
Mental illness doesnt choose people because of their employment.
And ai loved being billeted out to other families interstate when I was a teenager. Mind you if i was the minimum age of an AFL footballer I wouldnt even consider that, I'd be too old to want/need it.
Once again, nothing to do with mental illness.

Poor mental health can often be exacerbated or induced by social or familial isolation and/or brought on by stress. One persons situation and how they react to being drafted might be completely different to another. It's not a ******* pissing contest.

Of course, you can be born with a chemical imbalance, you can have it induced by a traumatic event. The one thing I am sure of is discounting or dismissing any cause, whether you think its pertinent or not, is not helpful.Wedgie wrote:morell wrote:For **** sake Wedgie.

It can also be induced by a million other things not faced by AFL footballers. It can actually be induced by anything!

No, I am not. I am calling you out for your outdated and ill informed opinions.Wedgie wrote:You're the only one getting personal and talking about pissing contests. You should learn to let others share opinions on this forum (which is one of the reasons I created it) in a mature manner.

I haven't insulted you as a person, once. I don't know who you are. The only things I have been critical of are the opinions you have shared of your own volition on here.Wedgie wrote:More insults morrell? Wow, we better all pray that I don't have depression. I won't lower myself to the same in case I induce you into a mental illness as I'm empathatic to the cause.
No one said that. Now you're just making stuff up.Wedgie wrote:Saying AFL footballers are more likely to have depression than the general community is as ignorant (and outdated) as someone saying AFL footballers would be more likely to be born with a genetic heart disease. Its this ignorance that actually does more harm than good for the education of the general community in mental illness.
