I wish. Sometimes I treat myself like one. Does that count?

Hugging is for Americans.
What's the most important lesson you've learned about BP? __________________ Mania kills cells. Brain cells die. Memories become more reduced conceptually, making more efficient use of limited means. Memories shape our reality. Our memories are more or less split in two by abstractions, conceptual reductions. Mood states with memories, concepts, attached. Memories of pain and those of joy. It causes instability, changeability. Fearing that will leave an emptiness between pain and joy and a greater divide. See Me, Feel Me, Touch Me, Heal Me. |

BP has no mercy. It comes and goes and wreaks havoc as it pleases.
If you could "exchange" BP for any other mental illness, would you? Which one? |

Schizophrenia... seriously!? Who else thinks they'd prefer schizophrenia (to summarise: you are less likely to die but more likely to be as good as dead, pretty much, but by all means, convince me BP is worse) and why? __________________ Mania kills cells.

Ok, more neutral question: do you think we live in an unhealthy society and why?

most deffenetly
not only the news, but kids these days too.. they see something on tv, or something in the street, and then copy it and think it's right (and the mothers don't seem to correct them) so you end up with 2 or 3 year olds swearing and thinking it's cool to stay up late watching horror movies/ adult stuff like southpark on tv then their's the overuse of mental health words.. someone will do something and someone will say something like, oh.. they're bipolar, they're OCD.. when in actual fact what they've just done is a 1 off. hmm the world is certainly not perfect. lol what is your most treasured posession |

My e-cigarette, at the moment. But there are some flash drives and hard drives which I really don't want to lose. All my manic ideas/plans are on those.

Hallucinations not part of mania/psychosis I experience when there are no people around. It's typical: too little stimulation (which is relative). Have you ever experienced or met someone who had alogia, an inability to and unawareness of saying the words you mean, so that people have a hard time understanding what you're saying, or anything like it (maybe just more like dyslexia; less severe)? __________________ Mania kills cells.

My Support Forums is the online community that was originally begun as the Psych Central Forums in 2001. It now runs as an independent self-help support group community for mental health, personality, and psychological issues and is overseen by a group of dedicated, caring volunteers from around the world.
This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.
