GSP problem is OCD

ShinkanPo said:
Yeah the way he said its like he has some interpersonal problems legal issues? wife thing?

Its not like its just fighter burn out or maybe both.

Training hard for many years like what this fighters do can drain them mentally.

The mind can only take so much.

Yeah who knows.

I mean the way he trains constantly, he may be a realistic guy and feel that he can no longer dominate the way he has. He's 33 next year and has had a major knee surgery and it'll only get harder to compete with the up and coming guys.
 
Yeah...or maybe he has a problem with COD. Causes insomnia among many teenagers.
 
I know GSP just got beat up so he wasn't thinking clearly but he just created a shitstorm around himself by giving that announcement. If he is truly having "mental problems" it probably won't help that now every interview and every article is going to reference it. He may have just exacerbated his issue now that he put a big spotlight on it for the whole world.
 
Pretty much every pro athlete has some form of OCD if you want to get right down to it.
 
Should tell your wife to leave her work out of your sport because she's full of shit.
 
Great analysis. How do I contact your wife so I too could also cure my OCD and other issues?

May I subscribe to your newsletter?

I don't see why your wife doesn't just go Freud and blame it on the person's phallus and mother.
 
I think he's just stressed as fuck and needs a year off to stop thinking about fighting. Think his life is finally catching up with him as hes getting older.

Joking aside (my previous posts) if GSP did have mental health issues (which I'm not saying he has) it would be a good thing for him to acknowledge it and highlight the issue. The problem for him would be the stigma attached and that he's famous he will not be left alone.
 
gsp has admitted in the past of being ocd, so your wife is right

he needs to retire and change things up in his life to break away from his constant stress
 
WTF OP. You can't start a potentially insterresting subject and just leave it with no further explanation.
Come on share some more.
 
I agree with the OCD thing. The thing is though, for a guy to have been as good as GSP - You have to pretty much be obsessed with your profession to be this good. The thing, a lot of elite level people like GSP just do not have the ability to "turn it off". He's going 100miles per hours a day, everyday.

Maybe he should go smoke some of Nick Diaz's prescription. hah.

No but seriously, he's one of those people that perfects everything he does. He doesn't have the ability to half-ass something. That's dangerous. The pressure that one puts on their own mind. He's constantly unhappy with his performances. He looks for mistakes in every fight. Here's the most dominant champ in UFC history- I rank him above GSP due to level of competition... but he keeps being disappointed after his wins. Because he couldn't finish here or there. He wasn't happy with the Condit fight that he dominated for 24 minutes and 30 seconds... because he got dropped...

It's really dangerous on the mind. He needs to step away. Look at him. He's a good looking, successful, rich guy... hardworking and comes off as a really respectful guy. And he's single at 32?

The man obviously can't get in a healthy relationship to save his life. He must dedicate all his time to MMA.

For God's sake, take a break GSP. You've carried all this burden long enough. Go take a holiday. Each 20 cakes and fry up everything you find with saturated fat.

He's been great for the sport. Thank you GSP. You represented MMA with class.

Go get some rest. If you come back, GREAT. Always a fan. If not, then so be it. I can't imagine how hard training at that level must be.

I want to know if someone has some inside sources regarding his personal life. Did he just go through a rough break-up or something?

Whatever. I don't want to see this GSP fight. The one who's mentally defeated.
 
Well he is very preoccupied with aliens kidnapping him...a classic ocd manifestation
 
Is that why he's gone to 7 decisions in a row?
 
If I don't see a naked photo of TS's wife, I won't be able to sleep at night!
 
Nice call. Yep looks like OCD problems.

White said he felt much better about the situation, and that St-Pierre would not be retiring. In fact, White said that the UFC's welterweight division would roll along as it normally has and insinuated that St-Pierre would return for a rematch with Hendricks.

"His problems aren't as bad as he thinks they are," White said. "They're personal problems. I talked to him. Lorenzo's still in there talking to him. We'll get through this."

White wouldn't provide details on the conversation he had with St-Pierre but did elaborate on what the champion may be going through.

"One of the things that makes Georges as great as he is...things drive him crazy. Little things drive him nuts. Like the whole obsession thing that he was talking about," White said. "He's very much that way, and he's obsessing over something else that might seem like the end of the world at all. But it's not."
