There's been a few fairly high profile suicides in recent years, most notably Robert Enke & a retired Italian keeper whose name escapes me (jumped out a window-- I can't remember whether he died, though). Maybe Speed's death will help bring some light to a terrible disease-- the media, & especially the English one, tends to ignore just about everything happening outside the UK. One would think a high profile athlete like Enke's death would have gotten more press, but it was kind of a footnote.
