Weak mentality I mean, that has nothing to do with mental health, it's about his attitude and lack of willingness to fight and improve. People who suffer from depression but still turn up and do what they need to do are some of the strongest people on the planet if you ask me.
I had a spell of mild depression a couple of years ago. I had a period where I’d just start crying for no particular reason. A combination of physical health problems and lockdown preventing me from doing the things I enjoy all got a bit much for me. I believe that the real problems brought me down and that this led to a chemical imbalance bringing my mood down and stopping me dealing with the problems.

Time and a course of anti depressants cured my and I’m back to normal.

I don’t think that at any point I was being weak in my mentality or could have fought harder against my mental health issues.

Why do I write this? Well many of us are going to have some mental health challenges in our lives so that it’s good to be open about the problems so people seek help and are not ashamed.

And having had this experience makes me much more empathetic towards others like Dele or Jadon who might be going through.

Phil Jones is back at united as an u18 coach.

Following the Jonny Evans precedent, expect to see him back in the first team somewhere around January.

Glad you are feeling better and well again.

Reports on itv news tonight that when the main incident took place (the one with the breast implant damage) rather than going to hospital (where questions would have been asked) Anthony contacted the club, who sent their own doctors out to deal with the injury.

United could really be in the shit on this one, and rightly so.

Obviously thought they could keep things hush hush. Couldn’t risk an expensive signing being suspended like Greenwood already was. Between United and Arsenal, the premier league is in the gutter on this kind of issue.

That's the thing, it's so hard to understand mental health and thing like depression unless you've been there yourself.
Even having a close friend or family member suffer, only gives you a glimpse of their world.

I've suffered from clinical depression for over a decade now and it's getting better but I still have the feeling that it's something I'm just going to have to live with now.
I don't particularly feels that the meds work but I'm scared to try and come off them because if I can have such severe dips while on them, how bad could it get without?

I think it's something that's always been there, throughout my life but when I was younger I was more resilient but after a traumatic couple of years, something snapped and the walls of self preservation came crumbling down.

I get quite invested in conversations like this because before I felt it myself, I had no idea how devestating it can be and how it can change you as a person.
Not just that but each case is completely individual.

Mental health is the worst illness to suffer from.

Was this at United though?
I thought that this all took place before he was there, although admittedly, I've not really followed the case.

Yeah I think so. I was wolfing down a tikka at the time though so could be wrong.

Ok hear me out. They have a special deal with Getafe to take on Mason Greenwood and pump out so much shit and content that the whole thing blows over. Next year mark my words he will be starting for them. They might have to run the same trick back with Antony.

I don't think there is anyway greenwood will play for Utd again. Likely they just want him to get playing again somewhere to maintain some value for when they do sell him on next summer.

Not followed it so don’t know if it splits between clubs, but there was one article I saw where it mentioned violence occurring whilst she was pregnant, she then lost the baby and that article had that happening as in Amsterdam prior to his United move. So this may involve Ajax as well, but of course other events could have been once he was at United.

I think there is an out clause in January... could be sooner rather than later.
