    You know what? I am in contact with a number of people who have/are suffering from this disease. None of the would EVER use a smiley face when talking about it. So yea, I do know what your experience is. And your ignorance and impertinence is personally insulting to me and most other intelligent people who have had to closely deal with extreme anxiety and depression.

    Oh come on, the use of the smiley face was perfectly obvious. It was in response to your post "Think what you like".

    And so a misinterpretation of the use of a smiley face enables you to "Know what my experience" is? Know that I am ignorant and impertinent? And add to it all get insulted by it?

    I have never in my life seen someone draw so much information about another person from a smiley face :rolleyes:

    Nice response. Totally inconsequential. I have dealt with many people like you in the last 7 years. And yes, the smiley face was a complete unveiling of you and your thought patterns. And your inexperience in these matters. You know nothing. You have nothing to contribute. Go away.

    I think he is confused. I think he underestimated what being in the NBA means. I think he is getting loving, but not helpful advice. I think twitter is his way of not backpeddling or retreating from his issues. I think he believes truth and disclosure is the right course even though I dont think he understands the ramifications and consequences of the form (twitter) he is using to share his truth and feelings. I think he has been shielded, to some degree from some real world issues and hasnt come to realize that his high school and college years were not the real world.

    That take was awesome! Nice! It is incredibly complicated and I do not profess to have first hand knowledge of it. Just second hand. It just can be tragic. Best to you and yours.

    Jason Friedman gives a "non-update" update last week. Weighs in on it at the 11:20 mark-

    basically neither side has given up or given in. Meaning most likely Royce is doing whatever he wants right now, and getting paid to do so, as long as he sees the team appointed doctor.

    The Rockets probably just dont care right now. Right now he's just a roster spot they wish they had. However, the situation now is better than the alternative which is to void his contract now, only to bring in someone like Kyle Fogg, and give up on the hope that Royce somehow turns it around to rejoin the team, and play well in the future. Worse comes to worst and he doesn't show up to training camp next season.

    Royce good luck in life and finding a balanced road you can walk for your family in the future.

    I hope I am wrong, but being a Houston Rocket doesn't seem to be part of his way forward.

    I wouldn't expect him to ever show up for a team event until next year...his contract year. At that point he will be twitterring away about his lack of PT that is robbing his future income. Music business goes bust, money slowly disappears and Royce will become that tall guy at Subway that you swear you've seen before...

    CF has shifted our collective attention from Royce white to Jermey Lin's GF


    both appear to be self-centered twitter people;)
