I refuse, at least for now, to be part of anti-stigma campaigns for the mentally ill, because I'm not 100% sure I should be calling my disorders "mental illnesses," and in any case, I don't want others' knee-jerk reactions and opinions. Once you're known for being mentally ill, people are all-to-quick to dismiss your ideas and thoughts, opinions and suggestions. I understand some people say "wacky" things, but not all wacky things are crazy or bad. Some of the best art, inventions, and discoveries came from wacky thoughts and ideas.

Reason: I really hate popup windows that keep asking me if I want to restart now or restart later! Later, later, later!
