of course pills help. no one is arguing that.
im saying its all bullstuff personal problems of self control.
its not like hes under a mind control.

Oh well,
thank god for the pills.

[Fire paw]

Oh noes i might be Bipolar

[Bisjac]

and they want all of you to become self conscious and paranoid about your personal health like this. to convince you that you have all them stupid problems so you go use the drugs. and money is made.
its a very old game

I doubt it.
Azi's attitude has dramatically changed from a well minded person, to an illiterate forget.
He's either been using huge sarcasm/trying to look funny all this time just to piss us off.
I doubt he's even Azi anymore.

I think for kids who DO have ADD and ADHD, it's quite important they take pills.

But alot of kids who are just more hyper than their stuffty parents like them to be decide to get them diagnosed so they can drug them up.

Actually i have a theory of why in some post he uses caps and is a well minded person... and why on others he is a total low caps bad grammar ass.
Azi, CHANGE YOUR loving PASSWORD.

how do i tell if i am

I've never met someone that really was truly bipolar that was not told that by a professional, even then at least two i can think of still denied it.


If you're aware of your emotional state to a point that you can ask if you're bipolar, you aren't.

[Bisjac]

they diagnose it the same way as depression.
among other questions; the doctor asks you if your depressed or bipolar.

if you say yes, then you aren't, and your a danger to have the meds.

Pills can also have a negative affect on people, too. Anti-Depressants forgeted me up worse when I needed to take them. I hate the things.

They work best when someone is depressed due to a chemical imbalance, if you're depressed from something like your family dieing they could drive you to kill yourself.

I can't pay attention with my meds.

drug companies cant make or sell drugs unless its a "disease"
so they are going around making every stupid thing a serious scary disease if they can convince you of it.


overreacted nothing disease's;
adhd
bipolar
migraines
acid reflux disease
loving restless leg syndrome

i could go on for hours.

Actually, did you know most ADD in children is caused by lack of sleep in children? I heard from like NPR or something that if the child doesn't get enough sleep the brain releases some chemical during the day when he/she is tired (i.e. the morning) that makes them more hyper active.

They didn't think it was a family thing. They did all these tests on me. Most of them where quizzes. I was half expecting them to say "And how does that make you feel??" or have some German shrink walk in and go "Now, tell me where it all schhtarrted.". It didn't happen though. They made me pop pills instead. I think it would of cheered my up alot faster if it where a German Shrink. Probably not seeing as it was chronic.

But anyway; thinking your bipolar doesn't mean your bipolar. Speak to someone close to you about it, be it your family, a friend. Depending on the extent, it can be quite harmful and, really, no-one needs to go through that.

I'm no doctor but take it for what its worth.

[Bind]

i think that's just another one of them phony diseases like adhd.
good enough for drug companies to make money off of. instead of just telling people to get their stuff together and have some self control over themselves.

For once bsjac I actually think your right. (but i still live off your fear and hatred :D)
