Niall Breslin - Carrying the hopes of a nation

there are so many now jumping out of nowhere and onto this depression thing that only the fittest and smartest are going to survive.
who cares about someone who had a bit of sadness afew years ago or got a bit jumpy starting a new job.
look at yourman @farmerinthecity for example, putting the boot into the fellas who get a bit jittery and belittling them and their condition. its survival of the fittest out there. bressie is playing the game and im expecting conor cusack maybe to escape from his all consuming slumber any day now and stake his claim to whatever it is these people want.

I’m on your side kid… but it’s plausible - or a come back to your claim- that he didn’t/ couldn’t just open the flood gates straight off - that’s not how it works…I think most people if they were opening up would say that they’ve always suffered from a bout of x without elaborating alright — his recent, out of the blue, admission about being that gripped with anxiety as far back as school is gas alright… he’ll be remebering the anxiety surrounding his own birth soon enough.

No website or media outlet would dare touch a mental health story with any sort of negative angle.

I’m giving that a like.

Incidentally I’ve listened to the first 1.15 of his speech and have given up.

Whatever about his motives, and they may well be 100% genuine, he is right about the pressures on kids now.

The leavibg cert is an absolute disgrace and so horribly outdated its not even a discussion. It removes around 30-50% of the population from the raxe to do what they want immiediately due to is all having different forms (not levels) of intelligence and i can totally understand how it gets too much. Square oegs in round holes and then parents, teachers and society all shoving the poor bastards into the holes.

@myboyblue, can you translate please?

God himself couldnt translate that gibberish.

Breslin giving his spiel to an Oireachtas committee who agree action must be taken…God help us.

If the cunt was any good he would have kept that young lad from Moyross who he was supposed to be mentoring out of jail, but instead he dropped him like a hot snot and the other misfortunate kids who won his RTE 2 show a year or so back.

He highlighted peoples misery on that show for personal gain and now his on a crusade with this depression and anxiety shit. It’s a very low way of making a living imo.

His a complete fraud and a charlaton.

They could hardly say anything else.

“Ah I dunno Niall, I read on a website full of crackpots that you’re just making all this shit up. Now, how well do you know Niall Horan and can you get an autograph for me young wan?”

In his defence, he’s not a miracle worker.

Was this mentioned at the time?

A time-honoured method of raising an obscure celebrity’s profile.

What a fraud but you’ve nearly got to admire a man who can turn a mild panic attack into a money machine.

Was he the only one on the flight? Private jet?
Mr. mindful couldn’t spare a thought for any of the other passengers, no?

In fairness to the guy, he says in the article:

"When we were coming into land and we saw all the fire brigades and ambulances on the runway ahead, I thought ‘right, that’s it, I’m going to die in Cork. "

That’s a horrible thing to happen to anyone. No one wants to die in Cork.
