Was Collymore suffering with depression when he was dogging or just when he got caught?

I suppose the incident on Broad Street involving him and Bosnich that Doug hushed up was down to his illness as well.

I am not saying that depression isn't a terrible thing because it is but with old SVC his seems to come on when he's being caught doing something that is out of line.

Villa v Fulham - Not picked so gets his arse in his hand
Beats up Ulrika - It was because of my stress
gets caught dogging - because of my stress

To me it is is using it as justification for making some shit decisions

What a load of utter fucking shite.

I'd quit while I was behind if I were you.

Hey, Rodders, I hope you can feel part of some sort of a family here; and I admire your openness in sharing your problems with us.

It takes a remarkably feeble brain to come to that sort of conclusion. You should donate it to science.

Gregory's attitude to depression in 1998 was bad enough, but it's sad to see that such attitudes prevail in 2011.

Best wishes Rodders.

Well at least this thread has confirmed everything I've thought about UsualSuspect.

[Rudy Can't Fail]

Rodders, that is one serious amount of bad luck to be dumped on one person. Stay strong, as things can only get better. Best of luck to both you and your partner.

[PaulTheVillan]

Society get's confused between feeling sad & being depressed.

Citalopram are nasty tablets. Avoid.

All the best Stan.

Rodders, keep going mate, I know exactly how it feels when the black dog is on your back, but remember that it does get light again, and clouds do pass. My best wishes for things to take a positive turn.

Seconded.

Best of luck to both Rodders and Stan hope you both get well soon.

Was on them for 10 years. I decided in the end that although I do suffer with depression, I didn't want to be beholden to a tablet and was determined to face it without them. I got over the withdrawal effects (for me dizzyness and insomnia) and am off them altogether now. The last 3 months have been a struggle, and I've almost altogether stopped drinking because that makes me worse, but I'm still glad I'm off those fucking tablets.

Full credit to you that have stopped taking the tablets.  My dad suffered for many years and is no longer taking them.  Its been a struggle for him and been hard to see him suffering but he is looking like his old self for the past year.
