Thank you to the families who donated their loved ones brains so that our family could find some understanding and peace in such a heart-wrenching situation as suicide. It is a comfort to know (for me at least) that his suicide was caused by the traumatic brain injury and not from the tortures of depression and hopelessness. Prayers to all the families who have to loose loved ones, no matter what the reasons. God bless!!
@@jimwalker7486 Do you have a history of repetitive head trauma? From sports or something else? Or are you just talking about a single traumatic brain injury?
@@AnPrimWrestler yes, I have a history of repetitive head trauma up until age 20, from sports Then I had quite a few accidents. I've had over 10 concussions that I know of . My previous comment should have read "TBI's". So far, I've been diagnosed with abnormal brain MRI and CNS Demyelinating disease. I pledged to donate my brain to the Concussion Legacy Foundation.
@@jimwalker7486 I'd recommend starting to take a few supplements that have been shown to disrupt the aggregation of Tau protein in the brain, possibly slowing down the progression of neurodegenerative diseases that involve Tau buildup, like CTE. These are: Theracurmin (A highly bioavailable form of Curcumin, the active ingredient in Turmeric), Green Tea Extract, Ceylon Cinnamon, and Resveratrol. Dosages: At least 180 mgs of Theracurmin daily, 500-1000 mgs of green tea extract daily, 1000 mgs of ceylon cinnamon daily, and 1000 mgs of resveratrol daily. It certainly can't hurt, and each one of these supplements has good empirical data backing up its effectiveness at disrupting tau. Have a great day and god bless man
helmet is a protector of the skulls and not the brain tissue inside of it.... even if you have the latest helmet to protect your head it is still useless with the amount of banging several times at high speed... the brain is like a jelly like type that can sway several times...
I feel bad :( for all those who are suffering. Also, you know, it's not rocket science that repeated blows and force to the head cause permanent brain damage :( protect your head ppl....
My nephew died 1 year ago today from suicide. His brain was studied at the same place Junior's was. While he did not have CTE, there was SIGNIFICANT brain damage, believed to be caused by a serious concussion (and smaller concussions received from high school football). There is MOST DEFINITELY a correlation between brain damage and spontaneous suicide. My nephew displayed all the symptoms of CTE: irrational, unprovoked anger and changes in personality.
Saundra Renz I understand your nephew better than anyone else. I have post concussion syndrome and there is seriously no hope for brain trauma like this. I have lack of impulse control, personality change, fatigue, cognitive issues, disassociation, etc ever since my concussion from 10 months ago. I don't blame your nephew for committing suicide. Might even join him soon enough too
Collard Greens me to although I haven’t been diagnosed with post concussive syndrome. i’m 99% sure I have it. which would also mean guaranteed CTE post mortem. I just don’t want to say anything to doctors yet. I played football basically all my life including college. gave and received a lot of concussive and subconcussive blows and hits in those 10 years. now I feel like I can barely function. behavior that people consider crazy has become a norm for me. i’m extremely depressed most of the times. the smallest things can irritate me to the maximum. mood swings are drastic. one day i’m fine and the next day I hate life. my memory is even starting to fail me and i’m only 23. i’m tired of people bringing up things from a few days before and I don’t remember them. i’m tired of the constant brain fog. i’m tired of not being able to concentrate. i’m tired of the sleepless nights. i’m tired of people calling me crazy. most of all i’m tired of the depression. I feel like it’s no longer a matter of if but a matter of when.
I just pledged to donated my brain to the CONCUSSION LEGACY FOUNDATION. IT IS TO BE TESTED AFTER MY DEATH. RIP JR. IM LATE TO THE GAME, BUT IM KEEPING YOUR MEMORY ALIVE AND WELL, BEST I CAN.💯🏈💪
I get scared sometimes, i played up until college, ive had the tons of hits and concussions. Im only in my twenties but i had such an addiction problem for a while and i never felt right. All i know is im okay right now and i hope i dont start losing my mind shit is scary
@@footba11fan41ife I only played for three years, and I stopped in 10th grade because I knew something was really fucked up with how many hits we would take every single day in practice
Same I Never had any addiction in life I was clean 23 year's of my life before my head hit concrete because my mom and brother I got into a fight with him had him but my family was against me I took 4 concussions every Year for 20 year's of my life 6 this the last one left me Dead for about 10 minutes I was in ICU I had frontel Horn enlargement with brain aptroy server damage to my lateral ventricles in the temporal horn but was Never told they missed it 7 times confusion after anger issues I lost everything over it was clean all of 2011 and 2012 that my wife told me I didn't know anything
Thank you for your playing I wish my brain could be donated but will never know what take my life with this disorder My heart goes out to the say seau family for their work and to help others with this condition wish I knew I Had stage 3 Cte how can people be so trashy to attack people with dementia who live a perfect life but because of sickness he lost everything and everyone wants to blame me for one o was clean 23 and a half years in life I didn't chose or know anything all 8 know is 8 seeked help should have never been realsed otherwise there would of never been any as I was clean 23 years before that came home to recover my family started putting forning drugs I don't know what they were but I know according to my wife I was clean Most of 2012 however forced on drugs a tripled drugged 2015 so it's very pathetic to force drugs on anyone with no previous use trashy and some trash said I entered a building no one would not remember it or what website or what password or email every known because of dementia stage 3 or 4 tell me it's not trashy or scummy if doctors did there job om trashy world a child would have nevertheless failed can't blame me I didn't know I was carrying demita cte 3
He had lots of dept and buisness failures and lost lots of money which cause him deppresion and took meds for it. Lost his restaurand in which he invested lots of money
In the head it sends a lot of protein for what they call it to the brain and usually you rest for a minute and then the protein goes away but in football you keep getting you keep you keep it up and the protein never goes away and it ended up hardening and then the interactors can't submit to each other and then your brain is just like seized up
Its one mans desire to feel powerful to fill the void that everybody has that only God can fill,the desire to dominate another man like a gladiator the admiration from onlookers that feeds the ego,to be worshipped and feel loved by everyone,the fame the fortune the women can never quench the spirits thirst for peace which only comes from Gods love not the love for ourselves or the love for the world we live in.
Yeah, a bigger payday. Only the people can stop the owners which will never happen. The people can't unite. They don't want to. STOP WATCHING FOOTBALL, no way. No way in .....
You can't know you have CTE until after your death I heard and I had 8 brain injury's my doctor told me one more and I can't play anymore and this is why i can't football altogether bc my Brain need the heal I miss it but yeah gotta stop it
@Jon B no I choose my health over football 🤷🏾♀️ I was great at what I did thank you ! For you two cents . I was the best in my 10 years of the sport I loved ! NFL player’s don’t last that long because our body’s don’t hold up Andrew luck retired in his prime !! It just happens.
@Jon B why do that matter 😂 ?? Bruh am not comparing myself to on one dude . Idc about that . But since you asking I will tell you 😂 I know i was the best in middle and in high school personally and I was told I was I was player of the year 3 times and I have the record for the most sack in one season. I played two positions my whole 10 years of playing. I know I did great while playing this game called football lol and other sports I played. Thank for asking have a nice day and life .
This sad i love football my favorite sport. But enough is enough something needs to change new rules new helmets the way its played change needs to happen asap
regardless of having new cushioned helmet, sadly, the brain is not made to endure that much shake and hits. yet, they will still suffer concussion, whether mild or severe. The only thing to do to resolve it, is to ban that game. Unfortunately, it is like the smoking business and casino, WILL NEVER HAPPEN.
Wtf is so great about playing football. Tell that to the love ones of those who ha e committed suicide or of those who cant live normal lives bc if that sport, how "great it is"...
Researchers have not agreed on a number of concussions it takes for someone to develop CTE. Some people who have a lot of concussions don't develop it all. More research is needed on the different factors at play in the development of the disease.
Wait one minute, when football started they wore leather helmets. Now we have the helmets of today, and just now we are having this issue. Now why just lineman? Im going to wait till there is absolute fact that there is a connection to football for this condition because it doesn't seem to be one right now.
Back in the day people weren't aware of it. CTE was first discovered by a Nigerian doctor when he examined that football player Webster (I think that's his name).
You're not supposed to be hitting your head. Why do you enjoy hitting your head? Your brain has many chemicals and proteins to have a specific purpose in a normal brain. Your brain is also segregated preventing chemicals and proteins from mixing. When you injure a capillary in your brain and if it leaks into the white matter, it causes inflammation. This doesn't mean you have CTE but it is an important step because it can make the brain deranged by activating enzymes that create abnormal proteins. It becomes a cascading effect, therefore chronic. Helmets do not slow deceleration from sudden changes in motion. No such thing exists.

If you think you have signs of CTE, please seek help. I understand personally. Please -- Don't go through this alone.
Seek help? there is no help.

Dont end your lives guys.. you have one.. dont do it
footba11fan41ife bless up and stay strong. It’s really fucked up what you’re going through. And you played how many games in college? 25?
You will be missed hall of famer R.I.P. Junior Seau
Should of had permission before donating his brain like that.
Why he did it so they could look at it . He literally gave permission
Beau Smith he shot himself in the chest so that they could study it
dude, this is sad
Junior Seau was killed by CTE = Chronic Traumatic Encepahlopathy.
He had a 20 year career I think there should be a cap on how long a linebacker can play
Not to mention 2 years in college 4 years in high school and multiple years of pop Warner. He most likely played all sides of the ball until college
It has effected several players in the NHL,many enforcers and Rick Martin who was not an enforcer
Robert Young it has even been observed in soccer players.
I just pledged to donated my brain to the CONCUSSION LEGACY FOUNDATION. IT IS TO BE TESTED AFTER MY DEATH.
RIP JR. IM LATE TO THE GAME, BUT IM KEEPING YOUR MEMORY ALIVE AND WELL, BEST I CAN.💯🏈💪
Thank you for your service 🫡 😎
RIP JUNIOR 😢
Wrong. He didn’t have brain disease or injury. He had depression.
he said "taking blows and giving them"

If he knew what damage he would do to himself i wonder if Seau would have played so hard and long.Like his son said it wasn't worth it.
This is sad. Dude had 4 kids, and a wealth to share with them.
