Terrell Owens Tries To Commit Suicide

[LPIDelta]

I am not, in any way shape of form, trying to say that depression is not a serious issue. I think Terrell Owens seems to find himself in many situations where he is the center of controversy, and I think he enjoys it. I do not feel bad that he has to deal with these kinds of allegations in the media spotlight because throughout his time in the NFL, he has continually invited the media to make him the spotlight.

Apparently, I wasn't too far off in my assessment that this was not because of depression. He did not attempt suidcide and it seems to be from a mix of too much medication and supplements.

Just to play devil's advocate, sure he said in his press conference that he isn't depressed and didn't attempt suicide, it was just a bad mix of meds. Would anyone really expect him (or anyone else in his shoes) to 'fess up to depression and attempted suicide in front of all those cameras? Would his publicist let him?

I don't know whether TO is dealing with depression or not. I don't know if he tried to commit suicide or not. But I do know that regardless, I would have been astounded if he had said anything other than "it was all a big mistake" at the press conference.
