I am sure a lot of players have a difficult time adjusting to retirement. They go from a very regimented life where they have a set schedule for 8-9 months a year where they never really need to think about what they are supposed do and when to do it. Then they retire at absurdly young ages as opposed to the rest of society (retire when kids are in elementary school) and they have a lot of time to fill in a day all of a sudden. Then layer on top of that many of these guys are loaded with millions. If you don't have the skills to regulate yourself properly and don't have a Plan b its probably for many a recipe for disaster. I know a lot of guys who would be dead within 3 years under that scenario.
I took a year off once. It was very weird staring out the window all of a sudden watching the world go by without you.
