It's always been this way there's less stigma attached to getting help. The pandemic isn't the issue. There have always been massive issues with drugs, alcohol and mental health.

Think of all the younger players/ex players who have died over the years.

We're seeing it more because it's more accessible and these younger guys grew up being told there's no shame in getting help.
