I've bashed him as much as anyone but you never really know what ones going through. On one hand, you say "how can one allow themselves to get to that point?" "where was his friends/family?" and on the other hand you just feel bad for the guy. In the end, I hope he gets or has his life together. Sadly, he just reminds most of us Knicks fans of the extremely bad luck of this franchise.

Also - did you know that many depression meds make you put on a ton of weight, which reduces testosterone, which makes you feel low on energy? It's a pretty crappy cycle. You can pick out athletes with depression very easily.

Or maybe depression isn't a real thing and just a made up disease like obesity.

Everyone goes through depression. You arnt born with it. Certain things happen in people's lives which can cause depression which can last days months or years.

Medication Doesn't fix it, just makes it worse. I have seen many people diagnosed with depression and for stupid reasons. One of my good friends got diagnosed when she was 12. Had her on all types of ****. Why? Cuz she started to act up and was sad all the time.

But did the doctors take the time to figure out why? Nope... Let's just disregard puberty a day the fact that she just lost her mother to cancer aND her dad was a sht hole. Maybe that's why she is depressed at 12 years old.

It's all bull ****.

I think it's a real thing for sure, but it's a combination of all sorts of things that they don't really understand yet. Everybody has jumped on the PTSD bandwagon right now, and that it kind of an extreme version of the same kind of thing. I agree that the meds don't really fix anything. All the meds do are level you out, and make you care about everything a whole lot less.

Which in turn makes everything much worse. Some doctor tried to diagnose me with Big Polar when I was 16 cuz I was acting up and had a short temper. Told him to fk off with his medication. Never took medication in my life and I'm fine.

You tell a teenage kid there is something wrong with then they are going to believe you. Their brain is going to believe what you tell then.

Imagine being 12 years old and being told you will never be normal or happy for the rest of your life.

These doctors are criminals and pieces of **** in my eyes.

My brother was on anti depressents for 5 years. When he was 17-22. Why was he diagnosed? Cuz he felt suicidal and was sad all the time.

Why though? Did the doctor try to help him? No.. just gave him some pills to swallow.

But the real reason... his first girlfriend ever and a girl he loved a lot cheated on him and he was heart broken.

Last summer I told him to get off the shi . And he did. And now he feels 100% better then he did before.

My sons mother was diagnosed at 12 with depression also... why? Cuz she didn't want to go to school, hated school and acted out.

But why did she do that? Why didn't she want to go to school? Because her parents didn't have a lot of money so she wore hand me down cloths, big beat up glasses and got made fun of every day she went.

Hmmn.. if I got made fun of every day in school, I sure ad hell wouldn't be happy and not want to go to school either.

It's a bull **** disease and anybody who takes medication for it is just making it worse.

Everyone goes through periods of depression. Some worse the others, but there I'd always a cause for it.. and that cause isn't being born with it.

Dude you are contradicting yourself and don't have a clear understanding of depression.

Depression isn't just being "Sad" Depression,
its a chemical imbalance

I know plenty about it and know plenty about psychology and the human brain.

Your brain adapts over time. Imagine being 13 years old and being told you will never be happy in life. Believe me I know plenty on the subject.

You arnt born with a chemical imbalance. How many infant babies or toddlera you see look not happy ? Kids go through it because of school and home life. Some kids have easier lives then others. Some parents are smart enough to be good parents and not look for a drug to put their kids on cuz it's easy.

Anti depressents are addictive, terrible for you, affect your brain and are hard to get off and can cause people to go through withdrawels.
