Game of Thrones begins....

[The Larch]

Apparently Kit Harrington has been on rehab for the last month due to stress, mental exhaustion and alcohol abuse. It seems that he had been having plenty of personal troubles since the 6th season due to the increased focus of the show on him.

What? Now granted I know acting can be stressful but they have made only six episodes in the past two years.

Edmure was a turn coat, ultimately.

He surrendered his castle to the Frey and ordered the Blackfish to be captured.

Not willingly.

From a certain point of view.  I doubt Walder Frey would have let Jaime catapult his grandkid.

You DO know what "turncoat" means, don't you? 

acting on behalf of the ennemy?

I guess he did surrender sort of willingly, in a situation that was still not desperate and being a prisoner, he should have relinquished the decision to surrender to the actual commander instead of exchanging the garrison surrender (and in all likelyhood, imprisonment for most men) for more agreeable confinement.

The fame that comes with it all will have had an effect on his outlook along with the actual "work".

He acted under duress.

No.  A turncoat is one who changes his or her allegiance to the opposing side.  That Frey threw him back in his cell tells us that he hadn't changed allegiance.

Come on, each season is like filming several blockbusters in a row, and that's not even taking into account all the promotional work they have to do (and him even more being one of the main characters), as well as media scrutiny. I can perfectly believe that the guy finished the show completely burnt out.

Plus, he was developing and then starring in Gunpowder and has appeared in eight movies in the last five years.

Plus, he's kind of a chav and would be struggling with alcohol regardless.

A chav? He comes from an aristocratic family (his father is a Baronet).

Plus some theatre plays in London.  My friend and his (at the time) girlfriend caught him in Doctor Faustus, one of several plays he has done the past few years.  He's been very, very busy.

Success is no bar to mental illness.
A recent news story has been around the amount of footballers struggling with the same. Often hits at the close season.

Since when are royals not susceptible to substance abuse. 

[Grinning_Colossus]

Huh. I heard about him getting a black eye from a fight at a McDonalds the day before he auditioned and assumed he was a chav. I guess it was a fight over hunting rights or something.

And his wife has her own castle.

Somebody didn't let him blow the horn when fox hunting.
