I'd like to start this thread to get some more humor in our lives. Post links here of clips or stories or songs that laugh at problems like being "crazy" or substance abuse. Not sure how this will go over so I made it a possible trigger thread.

Have fun and laugh a little

Here's a start. A funny poke at alcoholism from the movie "Blazing Saddles". Fits my life perty well. Enjoy!

I gotta feeling that tonight's gonna be a good night
That tonight's gonna be a good night
That tonight's gonna be a good, good night

I know that we'll have a ball
If we get down and go out and just lose it all
I feel stressed out, I wanna let it go
Let's go way out spaced out and losing all control

-Black Eyed Peas

Ways to Laugh At our Problems A young woman took her troubles to a psychiatrist. "Doctor, you must help me," she pleaded. "It's gotten so that every time I date a nice guy, I end up in bed with him. And then afterward, I feel guilty and depressed for a week."

"I see," nodded the psychiatrist. "And you, no doubt, want me to strengthen your will power and resolve in this matter."

"For God's sake, NO!" exclaimed the woman. "I want you to fix it so I won't feel guilty and depressed afterward."



HEE HEE I like this one.... Ways to Laugh At our Problems

When the new patient was settled comfortably on the couch, the psychiatrist began his therapy session.

"I'm not aware of your problem." the doctor said.

"So perhaps, you should start at the very beginning."

"Of course." replied the patient.

You Know You are Bipolar when:

10. You think Robin Williams should Perk Up.
9. You just bought the Kenny G and Berry Manilow box set just because.
8. You think going to bed on Monday and getting up on Friday is a good rest.
7. What do you mean you’re tired—I had only 3 orgasms!
6. You can not remember the number 7.
5 You know the names of at least three antidepressants and fifteen
mood stabilizers.
4 Your cat’s name is Kay and your dog’s name is Jamison.
3 You bring your own research to the doctor’s.
2 You think a drive from Vancouver, BC to Miami is something to do
in four days.

And the Number One reason you may be Bipolar is
:

1 Last night you understood the secrets to the universe and this
morning you are contemplating whether the jam goes on top of the
peanut butter or under it.

Funny thread Manicminer. My brother was bipolar so I can relate to funny things he did.

THE 10 COMMANDMENTS OF BIPOLAR DISORDER

1.Thou shalt not blame everything on chemical imbalance.
2.Thou shalt avoid high places and sharp objects when on either extreme of the
mood spectrum.
3.Thou shalt not covet thy neighbor’s shiny trinkets.
4.Thou shalt not trust any shrink who writes thee up a prescription after the first 15 minutes.
5.Thou shalt not beat up anyone while on a manic fit, no matter how much ye really want to,
or how much they deserve it.
6.Thou shalt indulge in immaturity whenever the urge strikes thee.
7.Thou shalt not break stuff that does not belong to thee.
8.Thou shalt go to bed only when ye feel tired.
9.Thou shalt allow others to occasionally get a word in edgewise.
10.Thou shalt not send people crazy e-mails at odd hours of the night,

You might be Bipolar, if you got up this morning, put all your clothes on backwards because you thought it was funny when you looked in the mirror, and went to work that way.
You might be Bipolar if you decided on your healthinsurance while watching a Ben Affleck movie.
You might be Bipolar if the white duck in the backyard, the next day, confirmed in any way, the health insurance decision from yesterday.
You might be Bipolar if you are at a funeral and begin laughing hysterically, because you just remembered that extremely funny joke the dead guy told you a while back.
You might be Bipolar if your idea of exercise since winter set in is reaching for the remote that fell under the bed, last week.
You might be Bipolar if the houseplant in the front room hasn't been watered in three months, but you are convinced it died because it hated you.
You might be Bipolar if the theme song from the Beverly Hillbillies continues to repeat itself in your head, for more than a week or so.
You might be Bipolar if you really believe that a long deep yawn followed immediately by a rip roaring fart is a source of cleansing for the soul.
You might be Bipolar if you click the light switch back on and off because you were afraid you broke it when you first turned it off, repeatedly.
You might be Bipolar if you haven't had a decent night sleep since Johny Carson hosted the Tonight Show.
You might be Bipolar if you are reading this Hub while watching a movie, talking on your cell phone, shaving, drinking coffee and driving to work, all at the same time.
You might be Bipolar if your entire wardrobe is piled, draped or stacked neatly on the rowing machine in the corner of your bedroom.
You might be Bipolar if you are delighted that the holidays are back and all the decorations are up, because you never took them down from last year.
You might be Bipolar if the entire year of travel plans need to be changed because your plane ticket fell from the desk to the floor while you were watching it, and you think the plane may do the same.
You might be Bipolar if you can't look up at the full moon because you fear the gravitational pull may peel your face off.
You might be Bipolar if you need to keep your drapes closed so no one can stare into your windows, even though your house sits smack in the middle of 30 acres of undeveloped land.
You might be Bipolar if you cry throughout the wonderful pork roast dinner you slaved over for six hours, because you watched Babe with the kids the evening before, and you swear you recognized his shape in the meat.
You might be Bipolar if the project you started the other day is piled up on top of the other projects you started last year.
You might be Bipolar if you can hear your hair growing.
You might be Bipolar if you watch reruns of Mr Ed because you like the advice he used to give to Wilbur.
You might be Bipolar if you have more than a 20 minute conversation with the telemarketer who called during dinner to sell you a widget, on purpose.
You might be Bipolar if the entire case of Oreos you bought at Sam's is gone, in one sitting.
You might be Bipolar if you know the exact amount of steps it takes to get from your car to your desk at work, and feel the need to go home if you are one off in either direction when you get there.
You might be Bipolar if your drink spills all over the control board at work and shorts it out, and all you are worried about is the three letter word for a bird, ending with a U.
You might be Bipolar if you speak with a British accent, but you are from Hoboken, New Jersey.
You might be Bipolar if you rip the tags out of your underwear because you don't want the Fruit Of The Loom guys staring at your butt all day, and you swore you could hear them giggling.
You might be Bipolar if you enjoy watching the doctor's expression completely change when you tell him the chicken on his head says he's a turd.
You might be Bipolar if any of these made any sense to you.
