Mark I had exactly a crap week this week as well. My first speeding ticket, the girl I really liked randomly stopped talking to me, failed an exam. I feel so down, thanks mark
Respect Mark, It's amazing to hear you talk so openly about how you feel at times, It's taboo & ain't something people talk about due to being ashamed and being ridiculed, Keeping your self busy helps to a degree but it can stress you out even more, finding a happy balance works, things like exercising, reading, spending time with family all help a little, words we use to say to others sometimes don't help eliminate that horrible feeling but it's a start, you know others can relate so that itself gives us some kind of comfort.
Thank you mark, i always feel that i am not important and that i am far behind people. But now i have decided to go to the gym to keep my mind of some things.
Wow. What a man. Takes some guts coming out like that and talking about your mental health struggles like that. Your wife is awesome as well, she must be a huge help as well!
Tremendous job on talking about low mood. I had an episode last weekend, the build up of the littlest things. Feel bruised like you for a good few days. Thanks Mark
I've had peaks and troughs throughout my life, and the one thing that always gets me out of it is exercise. It can be playing football, cycling, lifting weights, a yoga session, ANYTHING! Keep up the good work mate.
Mark great podcast, like you I started my career in policing after 20 years I was diagnosed with ptsd. I spent years hiding it from people and now I'm open about it because loosing friends to suicide should never happen.
Not silly at all. Exercising releases endorphins which improve your mood and reduce the perception of pain. For anyone struggling, if you're not exercising already you really should.
You really do seem like a nice person. Don’t listen to any lies or hate that people put on you on social media. Every individual in the “public eye” goes through that, you just gotta ignore it or else you would go mad! And this video was very relatable to me as I experience similar things. Much love❤️
Brilliant Mark, absolutely love it. The Gardai are still the exact same, as are chippers and the standard night out in Dublin. Would be an absolute pleasure to have you on the podcast when we’re more established.
You're so right Mark. It's so easy to suggest things like 'pick up the phone and call a friend' or 'go out for a walk', but when you are so worked up/agitated/anxious or whatever mood it may be, it is so difficult to think rationally and pragmatically when you are in that emotional state of mind.
Aye, folk can say about exercising for helping with mental health but talking to trusted people or professionals can be an incredible experience. Hope you're well Mark
I'm the same mark it's hard cause you keep it to yourself but it's true in some aspect keeping fit releases endorphins in which also gives you a healthier mentality
Im a sufferer myself with no help im not looking for a violin either mark i just wanted to say. Your very strong and this video believe it or not makes me not feel as alone. Well done bro.
It happens to me all the time, My bad day is Monday I have anxiety and I suffer with it and makes my body and my mind feels very tense and nervous and sometimes I want to run home although there is no threat of anything I still want to go home and hide. I’m very open with my problems too and I lose my concentration and forget important things. Man United games also don’t help especially with the Liverpool game coming up with half of my family and some of my friends are Liverpool fans. I know it’s not personal abuse but when we lose I feel like I’ve lost too it’s awful. Well done for talking Mark mate it’s very hard for some people who suffer with Mental Health problems. 👍👍👍
Mark, I've been looking into the connection between depression and gut health. You should check it out. Good video. Your honesty is refreshing. God bless you.
Yup the answer is always there. Always try something to do. Could be anything. That is the key to keep depression off. Lazy mood and lonely mood fawns on depression feeding into it. Hang in there Bruv.💖
Social media is great in some aspects. It's important to remember that everyone posts their best self, don't compare yourself to others on social media. Compare yourself to those around you in your real life who are doing great things!
I read before that stress is a fake word created to try to justify unhappiness, they have tried very cleverly to re term the feeling. They always talk about dealing with stress, stress management etc it’s all unhappiness management. I found it interesting to think about
You speak very well mark, strange in some ways but its very easy to listen to you talk on your own for nearly an hour sometimes, love your work on the united stand, keep it up mate
Been in hospital and had a lot of awful years with the invisible numbing weight of mental health. Means a lot when people talk openly about it and don't hide. Almost feels like a taboo or shame to own up to it. Your shows are a good distraction in life too!
My mental health nearly killed me 27 years old and 2 young kids and not once did i think of them when i failed to commit suicide, 50 paracetamol in 20 mins , my sister found me and to be told by docs that if i had not recived treatment when i did i wouldnt be hear now made me open my eyes and i than realised that theres loved ones and specialist out there that will listen and help. Please anyone that feels down and depressed please please please speak up and talk to someone there is help out there and people do listen and they will understand and they will help u in taking the right path to helping u control your depression and illness.
@@jonathanthompson6783 that was what i expected but they never did give me tablets i was taken to a social worker and also the mental health team and was shown ways in wich to deal with my depression like sounds daft gardening, dog walking. Giving me structure and making sure i had no real free time to just go back to my oldself and have the loneliness and the dark times of being on my own thinking of the worst thing, and it worked im more positive im confident and ye i still need the help but im pritty sure one day i will not need them and that i will be strong anoth to deal with my demons.
mark all the people who watch you and subscribed to you always support you the 800k people who watch and sub to the united stand and that’s football all want you to fight through it and carry on and say that you don’t feel good we all support you. although this video is a year old we still support you
I've been taking 40g Citalopram for over two years due to anxiety and a little depression. It's a big deal which the UK needs to take more seriously. Good days and bad days. I'm happily married and have a successful career, it hits everyone no matter what their life style may be
Compassionately shared, Mark, thanks. Churchill had his own "black dog" to walk as we all do at times. Check out author Bev Aisbett's humourously illustrated "Taming the Black Dog," and the new release from author Ryan Holiday, which mixes Stoic and Eastern thought tied to examples from history, with "Stillness is the Key."
Also cryogenics is only good if you can be kept frozen. Also freezing causes damage to tissue that's irreversible. We would need future generations to advance tech significantly. Cloning is one thing, there would need to be significant tech leaps to reintroduce your consciousness however.
I got you mark, can empathize with everything you say. You are a funny, truly genuine guy who cares about humanity and addresses real dilemmas we face during the course of lives, rather than how many views you get. Funny how people will only get to see part of the Real Mark Goldbridge on these videos, than going by the word of a fat geeza who got famous for ranting about a club he so much loves. Keep it up Mark, enjoy your content so much mate.
My New York Yankees just experienced an "Aguero" moment, when we lost tonight after rallying to tie the game in the top of the 9th Inning, only to lose on a walk off home run in the bottom of the 9th Inning to end the season, and I've been sat up for 5 hours after the game, in a cloudy state of mind Sometimes, Sports Sucks. Hopefully, United can beat those damn Scousers, come on United
Hey Mark not saying the following is the the case for you or anyone else, just something I've realised for me I've long suffered with anxiety, ocd and a general apathy towards life. I have IBS (mostly just severe bloating) this year I started on a low fodmap diet and I also had some blood tests done and sorted out some vitamin deficiencies and I feel so much better, more energy and more positive Something like the above, an intolerant diet or deficiency can cause you to be fatigue and fatigue makes you so much less able to deal with stress and stress makes your mental health in general worse Basically Fatigue + stress = bad mental health = feeling more down and stressed = more fatigue = bad mental health and it's a bad circle like that Making sure you're physically healthy is far from a fix all for mental health but it certainly helps you have the energy to deal with stress which is a trigger Also was interesting to hear about your police work but I can imagine that didn't leave the best memories to be left to deal with.
Really brave video. I'm an ex royal marine so have many mates who have suffered like you describe. Any ex serviceman struggling go onto Facebook op Spartan group. And read real stories from ex military opening up about their problems.
Was it Macari’s, Angelo’s or Beachcomber? They’re the three main chippers still running in Malahide. If you ever come back you should check out the pizza restaurant Mario’s
do you even know if its woodward's fault? Most fans use him to vent out their anger but him and Ole both said that he doesnt make the transfer decisions, ole does. Seems more sense to chant either glazers out or ole out.
It's more a macho thing or the standards of what a male should be. The stigma is that you are weak if you can't handle the stresses of life. That has to change.
I went to school with a guy who had everything - recently married to a young wife, a 6 month old baby, a good job, a new Mercedes, his own house. Lot of family and friends around him. He had done lots of travelling to southeast Asia and Australia too. He had a good life. His new wife is a beaut. But then completely out the blue a few months back... he jumped onto the railway tracks as a train was coming. Took his own life at 23. No explanation whatsoever to his friends and family. He just did it out of nowhere. So his family have no closure as to why he did it. No signs of depression or any indications that he was suicidal. So there was no warning or nothing anybody could do. Apparently police found evidence on his phone, or a device, indicating that he had been planning to kill himself for months, but I don't know if this is true.
I dip in and out of it. Without the gym I don't know what I'd do sometimes. If you struggle with mental health use the gym as a medicine I promise it will change your whole mindset on a bad day.
Declan McCartney Bro, just some friendly advice. Don’t use the gym as a means to mask the mental health/ unhappiness. These means provide us short-term solutions but fail to deal with the broader issue. Try to understand the reason behind why you might feel upset and work on your mentality towards those stressful triggers
Last comment just noticed dislikes i just dont understand this world a man is talking about his feelings which he doesnt have too. You dont need to watch his video but you still find the time to like kick a man when hes down and dislike. Wow. What a shi**y world we live in.
There's an absolute epidemic on mental health for young men Mark, so you are doing a tremendous job talking about it.
Mark I had exactly a crap week this week as well. My first speeding ticket, the girl I really liked randomly stopped talking to me, failed an exam. I feel so down, thanks mark

Hey Mark, appreciate all the work you put into your videos and hope your moods continuously improve!
The camera looks crisp
Thank you mark, i always feel that i am not important and that i am far behind people. But now i have decided to go to the gym to keep my mind of some things.
Wow. What a man. Takes some guts coming out like that and talking about your mental health struggles like that. Your wife is awesome as well, she must be a huge help as well!
Why haven't I been watching this often. Big fan of United stand but this sort of down to earth goldbridge is amazing
Tremendous job on talking about low mood. I had an episode last weekend, the build up of the littlest things. Feel bruised like you for a good few days. Thanks Mark
Good for you Mark on opening up about how you feel. Just sharing as you do will help so many people. Total respect.
Mark I admire the work you do. I don't feel good sometimes and it can be hard opening up to people but you are an inspiration. Thanks
I've had peaks and troughs throughout my life, and the one thing that always gets me out of it is exercise. It can be playing football, cycling, lifting weights, a yoga session, ANYTHING! Keep up the good work mate.
Mark my favourate man.
I hope we get positive result against liverpool
.
Mark this show was much appreciated. I’ve also had a bad week and your show today really helped by talking about it.
Mark great podcast, like you I started my career in policing after 20 years I was diagnosed with ptsd. I spent years hiding it from people and now I'm open about it because loosing friends to suicide should never happen.
Kudos for shining a light on this difficult issue. Good to hear you're doing better. All the best.
Facial hair suits you Mark 👍 If only I could grow facial hair, people would stop comparing me to Gollum
It sounds maybe silly but for me jogging helps alot, especially with a nice audio book. It makes you happy and refreshing
Not silly at all. Exercising releases endorphins which improve your mood and reduce the perception of pain. For anyone struggling, if you're not exercising already you really should.
Even just going for a walk in fields/parks/roads and getting out in nature helps too.
Exercising helps me so much, people don't realise but it just frees your mind
I appreciate all that you do and cannot explain in words how positively you affect me.
Curry and gravy is massive here in Ireland lad 😂
Gravy on a sunday and curry chips on a friday or saturday yeup lad
@Sean Gill up North it is
I think he meant years ago
You really do seem like a nice person. Don’t listen to any lies or hate that people put on you on social media. Every individual in the “public eye” goes through that, you just gotta ignore it or else you would go mad! And this video was very relatable to me as I experience similar things. Much love❤️
Fair play mark I'm going through a tough time at the minute and it helps hearing someone you like to listen to talk about this stuff
Brilliant Mark, absolutely love it. The Gardai are still the exact same, as are chippers and the standard night out in Dublin. Would be an absolute pleasure to have you on the podcast when we’re more established.
Know the feeling, great courage to talk about it mate.. helps us all who can relate!
Brilliant video Mark. Here for your brother!
My favourite thing to watch! Keep up the good work Mark!
You're so right Mark. It's so easy to suggest things like 'pick up the phone and call a friend' or 'go out for a walk', but when you are so worked up/agitated/anxious or whatever mood it may be, it is so difficult to think rationally and pragmatically when you are in that emotional state of mind.
Aye, folk can say about exercising for helping with mental health but talking to trusted people or professionals can be an incredible experience. Hope you're well Mark
Great vid mark . Your talk about mental health helps me a lot
Great video! What a great person , funny and honest at the same time 🙌🏻
Love you mark this really helped me with anxiety
Love the show Mark
Hope you feel better soon🔥♥️
Well done for speaking up mate, its vital that people with a platform speak out and make people aware. good stuff.
Mark your content is brilliant. Almost therapeutic in terms of the subject t matter. Appreciate it mate
Quite something to talk this way. We can all face difficult challenging situations which can overpower our logic and thinking.
hope you are feeling much better Mark
I'm the same mark it's hard cause you keep it to yourself but it's true in some aspect keeping fit releases endorphins in which also gives you a healthier mentality
Well said buddy! Have similar problems and can relate to what you said! Love the vids 👌
Love your content Mark - United Stand & Goldbridge stuff. Arsenal fan btw - keep it up mate - love ya
Bud your best story so far. Hilarious 🤣😂😃
Im a sufferer myself with no help im not looking for a violin either mark i just wanted to say. Your very strong and this video believe it or not makes me not feel as alone. Well done bro.
Appreciated this video pal. Thankyou
I live next to malahide and that chipper is still there and it's brilliant
Hi mark, cheers for answering my question 😂 I'll make sure not go on a cruise ship
You bloody do get gravy down south!! Chips cheese and gravy is the one 😂
Fair play for talking about how feeling down affects you mark
