Niall Breslin - Carrying the hopes of a nation

My mental health is worse than your mental health, so you should shut up about it and everyone should listen to me.

Yes, mates. But it could move him away from the centre of the debate, could it? She’s essentially saying what you’re saying alright. “You had anxiety when you were 15 so you struggled for years before doing a triathlon and now you charge €800 to talk in schools about it and you’re fine. Fuck off.”

That pretty much sums up my attitude.

Interesting re the Darkness into Light run this morning. Fair play to all involved. However there does seem to be a certain social cachet involved for some in completing these things.
Couple of young wans I know asked if I was taking part. When I said wouldn’t be around could see the look of disapproval on their faces. Same women however never get involved in local clubs or charities, spending most of free time running or in gym.

did they post a pic on facebook showing how great they are?

I really need a hug right now

Is that a fella with a bag on his head talking about depression? Are you fucking kidding me?

You couldn’t make it up.

Bressie is cleaning up out of this. No doubt. But just to play Devils advocate for a second

Is it not quite likely that he is actually helping people? The fact that this event is being held, and people are attending, not sure that would have happened ten years ago. It’s grand to be cynical about it and acknowlwdge that some people will make a killing out of it but there is fuck all capacity in public system to support people with mental health issues. If this makes people feel less stigmatised or gives them some bit of hope is it not worth it happening?

BTW- I’d say no doubt but the lad with the plastic bag on his head is by a distance the smartest person on that stage!

He looks like a fucking simpleton. I have no doubt he’s well educated, but grow up ta fook and take the bag off your head.

One would really have hoped that one of them might have been depressed enough to be a suicide bomber.
