Start2021 not able to leave my bed, unsure how I would cope without my dad, constantly thinking how can I go back in time and help him. However this year I have won a EuroPro event on my dads bday, got engaged and raised nearly £7000 for charity. Believe in yourself. 💪🏻.

I’ve lost my hero and the world has lost one of the most kind, generous, intelligent men -So highly regarded in all walks of life. I’ll never be able to repay you for the life you have given all of us. Memories can never be taken away. RIP dad I’ll love you forever.

It’s days like Yesterday that make me love the game of golf, everyone competing and enjoying themselves for a good cause… 88 men playing and north of 20k raised to help men and their battles. 3 oneil men have lost their life to suicide, but @patrickoneil19 and I will help ppl

I was naturally cautious when approached by @GrahamSpiers but how can we better ourselves as a society unless we tackle the hard truths. One day I wish to have the means to really help people on mass, but for now let’s all do what we can. So it’s me that can thank Graham.

Looking forward to final event of the year tomorrow @tartanprotour at a stunning course, a good year all in all for me, one that I have found very difficult, in a few days time it’ll be 1 year since my dads suicide, and I know he would be so proud of all my family.

How underrated is Martin laird…. Even most Scottish golfer won’t know him or certainly very much about him, he’s won 4 pga tour titles and $20m on course… ⛳️.

Would do anything to hear his thoughts on all things ange, liv/pga tour. Most people would, person who brought reason to every single situation in his life, until the end. Mental illness can come quick and it can come fast. You would be 63 today. Best man I’ll ever know 💚

Some1 on here had a rant at me for saying I didn’t support national lockdowns��. I lost an uncle and my dad to suicide during national lockdowns, none of them got any help from the NHS despite trying…. Wish people could see past the media and their bile.

There can’t be much more of a mixed emotion situation than dreaming of a loved one you have lost. The joy of seeing them, but the emptiness when you wake and remember they are gone, but it’s Monday and we press on 💪🏻.

Life’s tough just now with the worry about interest rates, heating bills etc . while completely warranted, it’s so easy to let it consume us all day and manifest into more than just worry. Please speak to pals, family and those you trust 💚💚.

There is no way to really describe those few seconds when you wake up and are trying to remember if that person who was probably the closest person in your life is alive or not (mostly because they are in your dream) and then the feeling you get when you remember 😔.

£5653 raised by some amazing friends, family and like minded people. Can’t explain how much it means to me that we managed to raise this for SAMH, someone somewhere will be saved or helped in someway because of this. 💚

Tried to watch this about 50 times and haven’t been able to, but everyone is sharing so thought I would 💪🏻.
I’ve watched this three times now. I’ve cried every time. As someone who has suffered with his mental health, it’s incredibly powerful. Well done Norwich 💛💚.

We are miles away any sort of successful pathway that will deal with mental health. Something we are going to do everything in our life to change.

Iv suffered with 50% deafness since I was a young boy, this warms my heart so much. Being deaf makes football immeasurably harder, but this will help so much 💪🏻.
#IN2022ThisHappened. My son started training with his his local club. He is 5 years old and wears hearing aids in both ears. The coach wears a microphone that goes directly to his hearing aids. #teamgrassroots #grassrootsfootball #IN2022Thishappened

Blairgowrie is one of the best golf clubs in Scotland. Always amazes me that no1 goes to watch any of the golf. This week saw the course record 62 -10…. Then bettered today 61 -11…. I bet if 2 YouTube golfers showed up there would be hundreds watching….

When your going through tough times you just want to stay busy and keep positive, almost impossible with this lockdown. Mental health of people everywhere suffering massively. Do we hear anything in the media or from the government about this? 😔.
