Standing with you today, David. Hang in there, your bravery in talking about your mental health is a beacon for us all, it matters, you speaking out matters. Thank you. What you're doing is right, even if other people can't see it.
Thank you to David who spoke out and for BBC for picking up his story. I can't imagine how many others suffer in silence. I read his story a few months ago and it broke my heart how insensitive people were towards him...there's enough pain in the world as it is without people adding to it with their insensitivity.
David, be proud that you have put your whole honest self in the public eye. You deserve to get the best help. Don’t give up. I can see you are a good man and very far away from being a Ned .
TheGingePlayer no its not "football and depression" "no football paradise" are 2 documentaries about the dark side of the sport that fans/supporters aren't aware of.
It takes a lot of strength to do what you have done as I have dealt with a lot of mental health problems but now I have found the strength to fight back as it is a life time struggle. Thank you for sharing .
Depression isn't always because your sad. It can be your thought patterns or even the fact that you see the world as it really is so feel you don't belong. This is why rich people get suicidal - once they realise that happiness comes from within and nothing else really matters
Awful realising people go on like this. End the stigma, we’re all here to help. Brave man.

This is an issue that needs to be tackled in football.

Good for you David! If it only helps even one person talking about it is worth it.
Whoever shouted that at him should be thoroughly ashamed of themselves. What is wrong with some people?
is this a scottish accent? i love the trilled r sound.
i੩ɐ⃣χ yes
God bless
research the work of Dr. Bennet Omalu, head trauma in sports and CTE.
David head trauma in football? Please stop. Depression has nothing to do with head trauma
It can definitely be caused or exacerbated by head trauma. And collisions happen in football too.
Wow
Needs subtitles.
Joshualacruz there's english (uk) subtitles now btw
Abbie O'Sullivan Excellent. Thanks for the heads up. :)
Abbie O'Sullivan It's a good story, I am glad they put in subs. 👍
Joshualacruz I agree! And no problem 👍
Being gay and footballer made me depressive.
Haha gay
Luke Mcdonald right... couldn't choose

And now he's quiting football, left the stadium at half-time after an alleged taunt from opposition defender Jonathan Tiffoney,
