Hi,

Last night I couldn't sleep and they were showing all kinds of scary movies for Halloween. I watched a movie on FMX called "The Roommate." Think Single White Female but about college students in a dorm. Anyway the ill girl runs around obsessing about her roommate, maiming, threatening & killing people, cutting herself etc. The scared roommate goes through the girls things in their dorm and finds a botttle of pills. She looks the pills up online and they are Zyprexa!!! In the end the girl is trying to kill 3 ppl and ends up dead. I was totally offended by the whole stupid D film. I talked to my sponsor and she said she was watching a TV sitcom where the girl started acting all crazy and her husband said she was bipolar. I think mainstream media sets up an awful depiction of bipolar, and it seems to be occuring more often. I hear ppl say so and so is acting bipolar or the weather is so bipolar etc. WTH?

Since when was bipolar such a popular adjective
