Glad your bar is stocked. You can sit back and enjoy a stiff one during your time off.Oh my god that's hilarious. Well have fun with that buddy.
So, I happen to be a mental health professional (and not just on the internet!). And I can't really diagnose anyone I haven't seen... but since I've been doing it so much this election cycle, I'll give it a try here.
That screams mental illness
Waiter,
This thread isn't very good. Can we have another one?
Une mint monsieur? It's wafer thin.Forgive me for being a prime contributor to this mess, so I won't be offering free dessert
:baghead:
On the former you could be right. On the latter - definitely. Hope you're doing well Mems. It was good seeing you at the game last year.I truly believe it's mental illness, and I feel for him and his family if it is. Mental illness is a lifelong struggle, and it affects more than the people who have it.

Bizarre delusions, disordered thinking, irrational anger, change in personality can all be hallmarks of Delusional Disorders, of which, Schizophrenia is just one. Additionally, many of these symptoms can be drug induced (though I would argue cocaine is probably not the drug in this instance).
What is particularly scary for young men is that the incidence of having a psychotic episode (break) after using hallucinogenic does increase ever so slightly in the general population but increases a bit more if one has the genetic predisposition for a delusional disorder.
My best guess: he has had the first psychotic episode in what will probably end up being schizophrenia or some form of schizoaffective disorder. The pot probably egged it on. And the tragedy is that there was probably a low but significant probability that if he wasn't using pot and/or other substances he may never had that first episode. (Once you have one, the chances of more or continuous psychosis go up).
I hate to say it but I've known a few real talented people who have fallen victim to the coke - super talented people who end up with all the symptoms of depression and what most are speculating here as "schizophrenia"
Of course we are all guessing and it's like a 50/50 coin flip at this point - it's either mental illness caused by what doctors have called "Accute Gurley Fear" or it's freaking coke
Let's take a look at some medical cocaine analysis:
Mood symptoms:
Behavioral symptoms:
- Anxiety
- Restlessness
- Feelings of superiority
- Euphoria
- Panic
- Irritation
- Fearfulness
Physical symptoms:
- Extremely talkative
- Increased energy
- Stealing or borrowing money
- Erratic, bizarre behaviors
- Violence
- Abandonment of activities once enjoyed
- Reckless and risky behaviors
Look I hope the guy gets the support he needs and gets back on the field but I am pretty sure whatever malady he's suffering from is self inflicted
- Decreased need for sleep
- Increased need for sleep after usage
- Headaches
- Muscle twitches
- Malnutrition
- Abnormal heart rhythms
- Constriction of blood vessels
- Chronically runny nose
- Nosebleeds
- Nasal perforation
- Hoarseness
- Increase in body temperature
- Increase in heart rate
- Increase in blood pressure
- Decreased appetite
- Dilated pupils
- Sexual dysfunction
- Gangrene of the bowels
- Tremors
- Cravings
Exhibit A: BLOND DREADS
Worst fashion choice ever - now do you blame the blonde dreads in schizophrenia or on pure vanity
I say Pure Vanity and that along with the drafting of Todd Gurley set the dude off somehow - sleepless nights? Punching holes in the wall, Maserati, irrational babbling, etc -- it all spells drug abuse drug abuse drug abuse - and as a guy that likes his ganja I can't see any symptom that you can blame on pot, but yet he's been busted for weed - so you know right off the bat the dude likes a good high. But the symptoms he's displaying aren't pot symptoms but freaking cocaine
The reason he is not reporting is he'll fail a drug test pure and simple

"Joe, Tre is making some really weird Cooing noises. Maybe he shouldn't come do drills with us."
"Don't be afraid, Bobby. Hacksaw used to make those noises at me, during practice in my last year with the Rams. He is just trying to rattle you."
"No. No, Joe. I think Tre is all coked up or something, like my brother Greg. Mom and dad caught Greg the other day with a goat in his room....
