Gazza sectioned again.

Gazza is strikingly similar to ex Leeds player Albert Johanesson. Severely depressed and drank himself to death. He was found dead in a high rise tower block. I have a feeling that Gazza will end the same way.

Depression is an absolute killer of an illness - literally. You can have all the love and support around you, but ultimately it makes you feel worthless. Some people seek solace in drink to try to suppress those feelings and it's a vicious circle: the depression just gets worse. Gazza is mentally ill. He may have had help and support but it simply isn't working. Telling someone with depression to 'pull themselves together' sums up the ignorance some have with the illness. Whatever is going on in Gazza's head needs to be dealt with. The trouble is, I don't think it will ever be. Quite possibly the best English player I ever witnessed when he was at his best.

 

A vegetarian T total with diabetes giving it large to a piss head who doesn't have the fear of having his feet cut off from a Bacardi and Coke ,because of the sugar content..

 

Sugar is a bastard. It was him who lured Gazza to the bright lights of London in the first place!

Still think you are over simplifying a very complex issue of mental health, but I can understand why people have run out of sympathy even tho I don't agree.

 

Society encouraged it and now the same society condemns the result.

Not being as much of a medical expert as many on this thread seem to be I was just wondering if wife beating is an illness or an addiction ?

 

More of a casual past-time in Newcastle.

 

You should get your arse to Byker... it's husband beating over there.

 

He needs to come home.
