and others have serious problems and need professional help. Too bad our society sees that as a weakness.

Someone else’s headache. May be addition by subtraction for us in terms of team morale and chemistry. Just a shame and waste, kid has all the physical talent in the world.

yes, mental illness is real and we should empathize with those people.

But for people that don't do all they can to get help, whether it's therapy and/or medication, especially with today's medical advancements, they lose my sympathy real fast. I admit I have no idea whether that's the case with Gilbert.

Full disclosure: I've got mental illness in my family, so I know what I'm talking about. Help is available - but people have to want to get it. When they don't, it's infuriating to the others around them.
