The most important thing is the mental well-being of Marvin. Mental health issues are a terrible thing. All I can do is wish him well, and hope he gets the support he needs.

Those people who are telling him to man up, really do need to give their heads a shake.

Think I would find being a professional footballer at any level very hard. Having your name out there for people you have never met to talk about how good you are at your job on a regular basis must be psychologically tormenting. And as Marvin said it must be awful to start hating the career you have dreamed about doing since you were a child. Hope he can find a new avenue for himself and can be happier knowing he has left football behind.

"Mental health problems prompt thousands of people to take their own lives. In fact there are about 6,000 suicides in the UK each year and it's the biggest killer of men up to the age of 49. Men account for three-quarters of the total figure" ." Mental health services are the poor relation when it comes to funding Extra money has also been earmarked for adult services in England. Together with the investment in children's services it means by 2020-21 £1.28bn more should be spent in real terms than was in 2015-16. Ministers say the money will be used to put mental health services in A&E, more crisis teams in the community and a focus on helping new mothers, with one in five reporting problems in the first year after the birth of their baby. But an analysis last year by the King's Fund health think tank found 40% of mental health trusts in England had actually seen their budgets cut in 2015-16." www.bbc.co.uk/news/health-41125009mental health rates in adolescents has been rising for some time

It has been said that all of us at some point in our lives suffer some kind of mental illness or issues.any one who says man up,I can only hope never has to deal with mental illness,either himself or any member of his family,or his response to such a situation could be extremely distressing and sad.
