Question Posted Wednesday October 19 2005, 4:53 pm
Okay, I have had it here. There are too many people rattling off answers about medical problems and mental illness in particular and it is pissing me off. Those kind of questions should not be answered by 13-year-old kids who NEVER had such an illness.
This is dicey shit folks and you need to know what you are talking about. Rather than have 10 pages of those questions with dumb answers I invite all those questions to go to me I am a moderator under the name GDROB.
I am BiPolar (manic depressive) at age 27 I know about hospital wards, mental wards, psychiatrists, what to expect, fears, and what is and is not a mental illness creeping up on you. Ie there's a question in meantal health about thumb sucking being a mental problem. It's not and people will scoff at anyone who told her it was.
I have been there done that and felt that with mental health. In fact, I am trying to get together some friends to help people with it that are teens.
Anyways, bottom line if it's mental health or extremely dicey medical material or questions do NOT answer them if you Have No Idea. This harms the question asker with false info.
Half of the people in here inclusive of great admin would not know BiPolar, Schizophrenia or depression if they saw it. It hits differently with each person. The sysmptoms you think you know as well as what you think something looks like are well, not at all like it especially with BiPolar.
If you guys want solid answers on this topic e-mail me. I would rather answer than someone who at 13 or 15 respectively think they know answers but cannot and do not from all I read here. Pepper my in box if you need help. I'll give answers or research areas I have not dealt with before some well meaning idiot gives you false info.
