Antonio Brown has a history of concussions which can lead to CTE. One symptom
of CTE is “erratic behavior.” Calling a “tantrum,” an “incident,” a meltdown shows a
lack of understanding and knowledge. Brown and other @NFLplayers are playing
undiagnosed. Living life with chronic headaches, changes in mood- including
depression and agitation, and not realizing these are all symptoms of CTE.
Junior Seau died of suicide after coping with CTE symptoms for most of his life. Some say Seau chose to shoot himself in the chest instead of his head so his brain could be studied. They did, he had CTE. Lived his whole life not knowing, but knew “something was wrong.”
Get educated before you judge
Regular screening, diagnosis, and growing awareness of CTE is essential! When brains are injured and it causes mental health challenges.
