    Gotta love the way he's gone about it. Rather than feel sorry for himself he's taken up the fight. Well played young man.

    Oh, and if you do ever start feeling down, I have the remedy ;)

    Surrender is the best health policy. Re mental illnesses.  going it alone is detrimental.

    I say this without meaning to sound flippant but that goal by Mitch did a lot for my mental health. I have watched it probably 30 times since and I always feel happy. 
    I think that’s why I have always been a passionate supporter. Watching football is such a wonderful distraction from some of the seriousness of life

    Strong is the show strength. To speak up. Strength to battle on. Not succumb to your mental demons.

    It doesn't take strength to battle on.   It takes persistence and desire.

    Strength has zero to do with it.

     

    In fact,  using  'strength'  as the terminology,  is detrimental,  Re depression/anxiety. 

    Strength is such an ambiguous word,  that so many people have differing perceptions of meaning...    Is it  'weak',  that someone has been burdened with depression???    I don't think so, And I sincerely hope people out there do not think they MUST be  'weak',  to find they are depressed.

     

    Saying,  "be strong",  imply's the alternative is to be 'WEAK'.   People with Depression/Anxiety are highly likely to be in a deep negative mental framework.  And will likely take the opposing perception of the Saying__

    You don't  "fight"  mental illness.   You work with it,  go with the flow,  dealing with it.  Easing the strain.

    Going  "against the stream",  and doing that alone,  is a major cause of stress, and emotional fatigue, and great unhappiness. 

    Stress,  a great contributor towards 'Depression'.

    I spoke to him at training during the 2018/19 pre season and told him no matter what happens in his career he'll always have this. I said many great players waited a whole career to play in a final and didn't even have a memory like this. He burst into the biggest grin and said thanks mate.   I spoke to him again in Feb at Maroochydore when they were heading back. He was about to order something and I said I'd leave him in peace and he said no worries mate just let me order and I'm happy to have a chat. Couldn't have been nicer. Special guy. Really hope his career takes off again. He has plenty to offer on and off field.  We could all be queuing up for some mental health tips in a month or two of isolation. 

    I've just got through 3 months of self isolating with recovery from an Op so unfortunately already have experience. Can 't believe I'm about to go through it for the second time in six months. There are worse things to deal with. Demonland's going to take a hammering.

    • PODCAST: Gold Coast

      I’ll be away for the next few weeks, so Binman will be holding the fort for our podcasts covering the Suns, Bombers and Lions matches. As a result, there will be no live podcasts during this period, and we won’t be taking calls or voicemails. Binman will still be dipping into this thread to select a few questions to answer, while also combining the long-form Stats Files podcast with the Demonland Podcast for these shows. Your questions and comments are a huge part of what makes the podcast work, so please post anything you’d like to ask or say below and we’ll do our best to give you a shout-out on the show. Please try to keep each post focused on one specific topic or player to make podcast preparation a little easier. If you have multiple topics you’d like to raise, please put them in separate posts.

    • GAMEDAY: Gold Coast

      It's Game Day and the Demons are back at the MCG and have a massive challenge ahead of them as they take on Premiership contender the Gold Coast Suns. What do you want to see from the Dees today?

    • PREVIEW: Gold Coast

      Melbourne’s slow starts have been a troubling theme for a while. Against the Suns, they started slowly in both of their games, they trailed by 5.7.37 to 0.1.1 at quarter time at Peoples First Stadium in Round 16. This season, the story has remained the same and if the Demons fail to shake off this issue against the unbeaten Gold Coast Suns, they will be in serious danger of capitulating once again in their Easter Sunday showdown.
