Freddie Flintoff - Depression

Very interesting and relevant, to me, program the other night regarding depression. Even whilst he was the Captain of England, depression meant that he couldn't face people and that he also couldn't switch off. You would expect to be reclusive when you are playing in a losing team, but this was happening whilst England were winning.

Neil Lennon was saying how the Doctors at Celtic are now treating depression. UPS's answer, even with a sick note from my Doctor, was come to work.

Graham Dott spoke about his paranoia, which Mandy says I am, and how he thinks that he'll now always be on "happy pills" When UPS, by implication, are telling you that you are wrong all the time, by ignoring what is being reported, it really knocks your confidence and starts you questioning yourself. Which leads into Barry McGuigan's comments about when you switch the lights off at night, that's when things really happen. In my case thoughts just spiralled around and around for hours on end. The same things every night.

Steve Bull said that sportsmen train, play & travel, train, play & travel. Not disimilar to UPS's work, work, work.

Maybe Freddie needs to be going back to Andrew and try and ditch his alter-ego.
