Also, as I said in a previous thread, I have not yet developed an opinion on the matter. But from what I can tell so far:
- Tyler was diagnosed as clinically depressed
- DHEA doesn't offer any significant performance gains
I'm not saying he should be let off the hook; but maybe the torches and pitchforks are a bit much this early in the game.
--DHEA is a lousy antidepressant.
If he carried a diagnosis of depression, he should have seen a psychiatrist and actually been on some, oh, I don't know... ANTIDEPRESSANTS for it, with a therapeutic exemption if necessary. If anyone knows the rules he does.
Sorry, but if the guy knowingly takes a banned substance that's not even therapeutic for his problem, especially knowing what he knows about the consequences, he's an idiot. I'll happily keep that opinion.
