Hi,
Hope you’re doing well.
Yesterday I was talking to my friend and he told me he watching tv ALL night long. There is a channel called “TV land” They play really old reruns. It’s a like a sad channel because you are like living in the past when you watch it. NOTE-I told him not to tell anyone because this is kind of a sad thing to do all night long.
He started singing this song (he’s 280)…
“Love and marriage…go together like a horse and carriage?”
After I was really embarrassed and not wanting to be associated with him : ) I was thinking about bipolar disorder and the fact some things just go together.
Do you know what I mean?
Like when I had to take the SAT years ago, they had this part that was supposed to check your sense of logic, like dog is to cat as table is to… and then they’d give you this choice of answers, and of course you’re supposed to pick chair.
But some things do just go together.
Like pen and paper.
Like children and toys.
Like sun and beach.
Like TV and easychair.
Like peas and carrots.
Like light and dark.
Like black and white.
Like yes and no.
I’m sure you can think of tons of other things, too.
So what does that have to do with bipolar disorder?
I’ll tell you.
Here’s something else that goes together.
A supporter and their loved one.
Your loved one cannot manage their disorder without your help.
Even in my courses/systems, I teach people with bipolar disorder that they have to have a strong support system as part of their treatment in order to manage their disorder.
And that means having a strong supporter.

Being a strong supporter means you have to do many things.
You have to take care of yourself.
That means more than just grooming, of course.
It means taking care of your own needs, so you can help meet your loved one’s needs.
It means making sure that you’re strong spiritually, mentally, emotionally, physically, financially, and any other way that keeps you less stressed and more stable yourself.
If you attend church, don’t stop going just because your loved one doesn’t feel up to it. You may have a need for the fellowship and/or spiritual strengthening just for yourself.
You need to fill that need, whether your loved one goes with you or not. It also may be part of your social life. My mom doesn’t just go to church to worship – she goes for the social activities, too.
Mentally you can do things that challenge your mind outside of what you do for your loved one. Reading is a good way to fill this need.
Even using the Internet to look things up, whether they’re about bipolar disorder or not, will also help keep your mind fresh and active and learning new things.
You might even want to take a college course –whether actually at the college (it’ll get you out of the house) or they even have courses you can take online at home now.
Emotionally you can keep yourself strong by seeing your own therapist, or if you can’t do that, at least keep a daily journal where you can write down your thoughts and feelings.
This way, you can keep those negative thoughts and feelings from building up inside you and coming out (they always do eventually) in a way you don’t want them to.
Physically, you can take care of your body by exercising. You don’t necessarily have to lift weights or even join a gym. Just walking 3 times a week can be good exercise for you.
And you need to be eating a good, healthy diet as well. The important thing is that you take care of your body, so that you have enough energy to take care of your loved one.
Financially, you need to make sure that your loved one doesn’t have entire access to all the family funds. Should they go into an episode and go off on a spending spree, they could push you into bankruptcy, and then where would you be?
Having your own bank account as well as a joint account with your loved one (just in case) would be a good suggestion. Another would be to make sure that you are a co-signer on all your bank accounts.
Also, if your loved one is not good with money, and especially when you see signs/symptoms that they may be going into an episode, make sure that you’re the one holding all the credit cards and debit cards.
Your loved one may be a little threatened or angry about this at first, but it’s still better than losing all your money to an episode.
Just remember, you and your loved one may go together like “a horse and carriage,” but it still takes a strong supporter, one who takes care of themselves, to help take care of a loved one with bipolar disorder.

Had to reply about TV Land. It is sad because sometimes (and I have a lot of channels to select from) TV Land has the best shows on. Have you ever took notice of all the “old shows” that are being tweaked a bit and being called New Releases in the theater? There are several of them, as a matter of fact, and some of them were the stupidest shows in the good old days! Like Get Smart, ok for a kid’s humor, but way too stupid for any adult. And then you have the Naive humor like The Beverly Hillbillies, Petticoat Junction, and Green Acres. These shows are still as funny (at least to me) as they were back then. There are more of them too that are being tweaked and released in the theaters like the Dukes of Hazzard! I guess my point here is that if you don’t want to watch TV Land and be accused of living in the past, just wait a little while and they will make an updated movie of it so you can go to the theater and live in the present! Or you can look at it as some good old memories are great to remember!
love the topic today well im going to my first appt tommorow for therapy. i hope it helps b/c i have a lot to wrry about and it seems as though my b/f doesnt have care in the world so im going to at least have someone to vent to maybe this will prevent any arguements thant we have mabny of b/c/ i mean i understand he is bi polar but that can mean that he doesnt have any knowledge of what he is doing is wrong or does it? i d REALLY like to know if ppl w bipolar that know that they have it use it as something they that helps them get away w things that they do they have to have some sort of concience and awarence that they are screwing up there lives when they blow all there money or like how my b/f makes more than me through unemployment and yet he steals from me but he does pay it back evetually but thats what im getting at he does all these diff things and then fixes or tries to fix them so in reality he does know what he s doing is wrong but i think he just does it anyway and it also means that he remembers te bad things he does i dont mean to affend anyone im just having difficulty understanding a lot hopefully therapy will work and give me better insite and knowledge but thins is just strickly my opinion but it has been my life , my relationship and its hard when hes manic when hes gone all the time sometimes days and leaves me to take care of our son hes one right now but what am i supposed to do when he gets older and daddy leaves? tell my son “oh daddys gone b/c he cant handle normall family life style or that he might not come back b/c hes deprressed and wants nothing to do w us and wthe next time we c him might b in a coffin ;c how do u explain that to a child . i try to b supportive but ………. he doesnt want to hear what i have to say or think he has very long and bad episodes hes drinking now and it makes him completely uncontrollable dont get me wrong i dont want to control him or try and be a mother figure , i just want to be his best friend again i want him to talked to me about anything would be great! i miss him. even when he there, he s not……………. wish me luck for tommorow i might need it! thanks dave for all ur help

I am the one with the biolor, but we are both no good with money. Then what do you do? I have been really good about not spending money in this manic that I am in so far. Part of the reason is that I do not have access because we only have one car and my husband has it to work. but I have always been the ” good” one to make sure that the bills are paid. That is part of what I am obsessing about all night long when I am up. I have been homeless and I swore that I would never be again. You talk about support for the loved one but seldom talk about support for us who have bipolor. I am very greatfull for your articles and they do help. Im just cranky cause I have not slept through the night in weeks. Sorry. But I do get some thing out of your letters, thank you!!
I was disappointed to hear you say how sad aobut the channel tvland. They are shows from different times but they also cause you to laugh and forget some of the crap you are going through. Most shows today cop,hospital, or whatever really seem to have depressing topics. sure it might be life but i think the tv has gotten away from entertaining as much as thye think they need to show us the world or whatever…I pay all the money I do for cable for tvland and nick at night so i can watch tv and not think and not be sad.
Dave:
You seem to be rambling a bit today.
How in the world can you say that a dog is to a table as a cat is to a chair?
That’s ridiculous.
There’s nothing wrong with TV Land; some of those old shows are very enjoyable. It’s not sad! It may be of concern if someone is bipolar and is staying up all night watching TV. But not sad!
Speaking of supporters, I think it’s great to recommend that everyone with bipolar disorder should have a supporter, but I think the truth is that
some people are unfortunate and have to go through it alone (not me – I’m very lucky in that way, but a great many people are going it alone).
Do you have any advice for someone who has NO ONE (spouse, boyfriend, girlfriend, parents, sibling, friend – NO ONE)? I honestly don’t know what I would do without my supporter(s). There are also people who have a spouse or family, but they simply refuse to educate themselves about bipolar disorder and are not helpful in any way. What about these people (and there are a lot of them). Seriously, I’m asking what you would recommend for the bipolar survivor who has no supporter?
YOU PRINT NONE OF MY RESPONSES?
WHY MY LITTLE ONE?
Is it beacause there not written by you, or yours’?
IS IT BEACAUSE YOU & YOURS’ CANNOT HANDLE THE TRUTH? YES LITTLE ONE AT TIMES NOTHING HURTS MORE THAN Mr. TRUTH.
I believe so. We with the GIFT, ARE NOT FOOLS. WE WOULD THEREFORE NOT PRAISE ONE.
ALL YOU ARE AFTER LITTLE ONE IS A QUICK BUCK AND MANY MORE YOU KNOW ZIP, AND YOU PROVE IT DAILY. R U ONE OF THEM? YOU SHURE FIT THE SYMPTOMS OF THE ILLNESS. (Dr. OR PSYCHAITRIST)? NO A Dr. LAUGHS AT A PSYCH.
IF YOU AND YOURS WHERE GENUINE & WANTED TO HELP, YOUR GOODS WOULD BE FREE! YOU COULD GET GOV. SPONSERSHIP IF YOU R ANY GOOD AT THE DUMBING DOWN OF THE POPULACE.
WE ARE HONEST. TO A FAULT. YES FOR ONE WE WOULD HAVE MORE FRIENDS IF WE WHERE NOT. AND LESS TROUBLE.
WE ARE VASTLY AHEAD IN ALL POSITIVE TRAITS COMPAIRED TO MERE MORTALS. WE R KNOWN AS THE COMPLEATE HUMAN. OR DA-VINCIS.
YOUR “KNOWLEDGE” ON BIPOLAR “DISORDER” CAN BE GAINED IN UNDER 5 MINUTES, YOU KNOW AS LITTLE AS A PSYCHIATRIST.
YET THEY INVENTED THE “DISEASE.” IT WAS THE ONLY IDEA THEY EVER HAD FREAUD PERHAPS? THEY STILL “STUDY” THAT FOOL! AND OTHERS. LEANNE HORNING WENT AGAINST FRAED, SHE WAS MORE POPULAR. WOMB ENVY APARENTLY BETTER THAN PENIS ENVY. SEEMS FRAUD MAY HAVE BEEN A PEDIFILE? THERE ALL WORTHLESS. THEY ALL NEED A LOT OF TREATMENT. INDEFINATLY.
THE MONEY SAVED ON THERE WAGES & UPKEEP, COULD BE USED TO REBUILD THE WORLD. ENDING POVERTY, STARVATION, DISEASE, HOMELESSNESS, CRIME. YES THE WORLD WOULD BE FAR BETTER OFF. ALL WOULD BENIFIT. YES MONEY USED WISLY CAN BUY HAPPINESS….
I HAVE BEEN LOOKING AT WHAT IS FED TO THESE ORGANISMS. TO TRY AND FATHOM THERE LACK OR MINDS.
THEY ARE SO FAR GONE THERE CONDECENDING, THEY HAVE NO PEOPLE SKILLS, AND THEY BELIEVE WE ARE BRAINLESS ORGANISMS, AS THEY PROVE THEMSELVES TO BE. THEY DO GO WELL OUT OF THERE WAY TO INFLAME ANY SITUATION. IT IS THERE SWORN DUITY TO THE GOVERNMENT. TO KEEP US IN A STATE WORSE THAN DEATH. DECERIBRATION, & AGITATION…
INVENTING BP “ILLNESS” IS LIKE WHEN AS A SMALL CHILD YOU INVENTED A NEW GAME, WHEN YOU LOSE A POINT, INVENT A NEW RULE, OR CHANGE THE RULE TO SAVE IT. MOVE THE GOAL POSTS.SAME WITH THE PSYCH. & BP. QED. THE “RULES” R CHANGED CONSTANTLY. BUT AS WE R NOTHING WE R NEVER LISTENED TO WHEN WE CALL IT, WE ARE “DELUSIONAL”, “HAVING AN EPISODE,” “LIEING” “NOT YOU THAT WAS SCOTT”………
BP HAS “GREAT SYMPTOMS” SYMPTOMS TO RENDER US WITHOUT RIGHTS! AND THEREFORE CONTROLED BY “AUTHORITY” SYMPTOMS TO FIT ANYBODY!
NO RIGHTS. THE POLICE GET US AND TAKE US TO “HOSPITAL” FOR NO REASON. “THE PSYCH. WANTS TO SEE YOU.” THERE WE ARE HELD DOWN & FORCIBLY INJECTED BY GARBAGE WE DON’T KNOW. WELL YOUR GONE FOR MONTHS OR LONGER. UNCONSCIOUS. AT THERE WHIM.
I HAVE HAD ENOUGH OF THIS SHIT!
IS IT DUE TO US “NEEDING” A TOP UP ON OUR DECERIBRATION? SO AS TO RETAIN SOME OF THE STUPIDITY? SPECIAL BRAIN DAMAGE.
YES “SYMPTOMS” “DELUSIONAL,” “GREAT LIERS,”( TERRIBLE LIERS) “NO MEMORY,” THIS DESCRIBES THE PSYCHS. AT BEST. THEY HAVE NO HUMAN QUALITIES.
“UNABLE TO WORK, OR HOLD A JOB.” THAT IS CORRECT IF YOU R SEEING A PSYCH. AND HAVE TO TAKE “MEDICATION” SEE YOU R TESTED FOR THESE POISONS, IF THERE NOT PRESENT, OR YOU DO NOT SEE PSYCH. YOU R SENT BACK IN FOR FURTHER DESTRUCTION.
IT IS INSANE! I WAS TOLD THEY COULD NOT MAKE ME SEE THEM. PSYCH. TOLD ME I MUST SEE HER OR GO BACK IN? ILLEAGAL LUMBAR PUNCTIRE ENTRAPMENT, ILLEAGAL INJECTIONS….
NO MEMORY? WE ARE RENOUND FOR OUR MEMORIES (PHOTOGRAPHIC, HYPREFOCOUS…) AND INTELLEGENCE. ANSWERS FLOW FROM THE SUBCONSCIOUS. THEN TOU MEET THE ORGANISM, YOU’RE GOOOOOONE. OR IS IT “NORMAL” TO FEEL SO SHITTY? FEEL AS THOUGH YOU WOULD BE FAR BETTER OFF DEAD? THEY SHOULD JUST SHOOT US IF THEY DON’T WANT US, HELL IT WOULD BE MORE HUMANE. I’LL LINE UP!
WAIT AMERICA INVENTED AND IS GREAT WITH “FRIENDLY FIRE.” GREAT IDEA, CAN I JOIN?
YES THE BAD DRUGS RUIN MEMORY…. THE WHOLE BEING, GONE.
BUT OF ALL THE “SYMPTOMS” (WHICH CAHNGE TO SUIT THE PSYCH. AT THE TIME, OFTEN CONTRADICTING AFFORMENTIONED SYMPTOMS. JUST LIKE A CHILDS GAME RULES…)
ALL DrS. ARE SPOILT LITTLE RICH KIDS. WHITHOUT ANY HUMAN QUALITIES. THERE PARENTS SENT THEM TO SCHOOL AS THEY COULD NOT STAND THEM AROUND THE HOUSE. THE SCHOOL GOT SICK OF THEM, SO THEY GAVE THEM THE TRADE TICKET SO AS TO BE RID OF THEM QED.
I CANNOT SEE THESE ORGANISMS PASSING ANY TEST AS THEY ARE BENEATH WASTE.
SEEMS THEY WANT TO PUNNISH OTHERS BY MAKING THEM THE SAME? LIKE A HOOKER WANTS TO REMOVE THE JOHN OF ALL HIS MONEY… THEY HAVE THE “MEDICINE” DEVOLOPED JUST FOR THE TRICK.
I HAVE ONLY “SYMPTOMS” ANY NORMAL FOOL HAS. ALL THE OTHERS ARE FOR ENTRAPMENT. DOSN’T MATTER WHAT YOU SAY OR DO, OR HAVE DONE TO YOU: THAT’S ALL IN YOUR HEAD! IT’S “GREAT!” IT IS EITHER:”NOT REAL.” OR:”THAT WAS NOT YOU THAT WAS SCOTT.” ANOTHER BEAUTY: “AND WHAT WOULD YOU WANT ME TO SAY ABOUT THAT TROY.”
IT HAS BEEN PROVEN BUD THE PSYCHIATRIST IS THE PROBLEM! SO WHY R YOU STILL PUSHING THEM, AND THERE DESIGNER DRUG? R U A FOOL?
YES THE OLD: “THAT WASN’T YOU THAT WAS SCOTT.” INCIDENTS. PRICELESS.
I STILL DO NOT KNOW WHAT HAPPENED. IN “THE CARE” OF PSYCHIATRISTS I HAVE LOST 8 YEARS. AND THEY HAVE REALY “DONE A GOOD JOB.” AS MY MIND. BODY SOUL & FAMILY IS RUINED. MY BRAIN DOES NOT WORK. MY IQ HAS FALLEN TO A LOW OF 133, MANY THINGS DON’T SEEM THE SAME. SOON I WON’T BE ABLE TO WIPE MY ARSE, IT IS A CHORE NOW. I DO HAVE A NURSE, NO THE PSYCHS. CAN LICK IT CLEAN.
STILL NO MORNING ERRECTION?
I SHOULD BE ON LIFE SUPPORT, WELL I AM A ZOMBIE. IF I DIE THEY WIN! I WOULD BE BETTER OFF DEAD. THOUGH THEN THEY NEED ANOTHER FOR THERE “LIFESTYLE.”
PSYCHS. HAVE TOLD MY QUACK, QUACK TO QUACK THEY DON’T WANT TO SEE ME. WHAT A JOKE, THERE AFTER MORE CASH & A LITTLE “RECOGNITION.”
MY QUACK FINDS THEM HILARIOUS. HE WAS NOT TO TELL ME OF THE “NO SEE” THING.
I THOUGHT THAT WAS GREAT. AFTRE ONLY 8 YEARS WE HAVE REACHED AN AGREEMENT. THOUGH I HAD TOLD THEM MANY TIMES: “AT BEST YOU MAKE THE TITSON THE BULL LOOK USEFUL!” “THERE IS NO USE IN SEEING YOU YOURE INSANE, I CAN SEE & ALSO SMELL PSYCHIALY ILL!” AND OTHER THINGS. MANY OF THEM PERHAPS ALL, I DO NOT WANT TO ASSES ANY MORE R CRIMINALY INSANE SADISTS. WITH A VERY HIGH OPINION, DELUSIONS OF THEMSELVES.
I COULD ASSES MORE I GUESS. WHEN CAN I SEE YOU?
THE PSYCHS. & THERE DRUGS RUIN OUR MINDS, OUR BODIES, OUR SOULS OUR FAMILIES, WE MAY AS WELL BE DEAD.
I COULD CHANGE ANYONE, HAVE HIM OR HER DO AS I WANTED WITHOUT DRUGS. I WONT TELL YOU AS YOU R NOT WORTHY. IT IS HOWEVER VERY SIMPLE. NO I DON’T HAVE A GUN….
YOU LITTLE ONE “KNOW ALL” YET U TELL US TO SEE THE LOWEST “LIFE” FORM ON THE PLANET, CRIMINALY INSANE UNMENTIONABLES & TAKE THERE POISON? WHERE/WHAT HAVE YOU STUDIED?
I HAVE STUDIED THESE WORTHLESS ORGANISMS FOR OVER 8 YEARS I HAVE DETAILED FILES! YOU ARE EITHER 1 OR YOU HAVE NO EXPERIENCE AS A “CONSUMER” IN THE “MENTAL HEALTH SYSTEM.”
WHICH IS IT? DID YOU SIMPLY CHOOSE TO IGNORE YOU MOTHERS COMPLAINTS AS “SHE’S MAD? CRAWL BACK UNDER YOUR ROCK.
MY NURSE IS AGAINST THE SYSTEM. SHE MAY BE ONE OF US, SHE HAS THE LOOK. AND TEMPREMENT. HER MEMORY IS GREAT, SHE IS DISORGANISED THOUGH IT MATTERS NOT, SHE GETS A LOT DONE, SHE CAN “WING IT”… SHE KEEPS THE PSYCHS. AT BAY!
THE PSYCH. IS THE DISEASE. THEY & THERE OVER PRESCRIBING OF DRUGS WHICH KILL.
YOU DO NOT TAKE A FULL OR O/D OF ASPRIN DAILY, IN CASE OF HEADACHE DO YOU LITTLE ONE? NO IT WOULD KILL YOU. CAUSES BLEEDING. ASPRIN IS ONE THEORY OF BRUCE LEES’ DEATH. ALSO HERD HE WAS SHOT MAKING “THE CROW.” HE WAS TOLD IT WAS “UNLUCKY.”
SO WHY TAKE HUGE DOESES OF ANY GARBAGE DAILY? I NEED IT EVERY FEW YEARS, WHEN I USE IT WORKES IN 1 OR 2 NIGHTS, IF IT DID NOT I WOULD THROW IT TO THE SHITHOUSE AS IT IS MEARLY A PLECEBO.(JELLY BEAN).
I HAVE PROBLEMS WITH ONE PERSON. YET I HAVE TO TAKE “MEDICATION” EVEN THOUGH ALL PSYCHS. SAY IT DON’T MATTER WHAT PILL OR INJECTION I TAKE. IT WILL NOT CHANGE ANOTHER. THEY ALSO SAY THEY CAN’T CHANGE ANYONE. WHY THEN R THEY HERE? ALL OF THEM BEYOND WORTHLESS! LIKE GOVERNMENT INEPT. ONLY FAR WORSE.
ALL “MEDICINE” I FIND IS MEARLY SNAKE OIL. DID THEY NOT KILL SNAKE OIL SALESMEN NOT LONG AGO?
NOT NOW! SKIN CREAM ANYONE? PARACETAMOL (PANADOL)……
WE ON AVEREAGE ARE A HELL OF A LOT MORE INTELEGENT, WE ARE STRONGER IN ALL WAYS THAN THE MERE MORTAL. CHECK IT OUT.
HENCE THE “KRYPTONITE.” YES THE “MEDICINE” IS TO RUIN MIND BODY & SOUL. IT ALSO DESTROYS FAMILIES. makes you also psychaly weaker, must be too much, as too much to drink weakens one. Drinking however is NOTHING compaired to “antipsychotic meds.”
Why if I consume this rot more than 2 days I feel worse than ever? lonly empty depressed I cry, I want to Die, cant hold a thought, cant set Goals cant read….. all gone!!!!!
Why is it the exact oppisite of what the Manufacturer & pusher state it does?
IF ONE HAS THE CORRECT AREAS OF THE BRAIN DAMMAGED, WHICH A PSYCHIATRIST SHOULD KNOW HOW TO INDUCE WITH HER DRUGS. HE WILL PRESENT SIMILAR SYMPTOMS.
THEN HE IS WORTH $9000 OR SO TO HER PER HOUR. AS HE HAS “BIPOLAR.”
YES I BELIEVE I HAVE MEDICALY INDUCED BRAIN DAMAGE!
perhaps we all do?
WHAT WAS THE CRAP ABOUT THE SLACKEST WORKER, AND THE CONSTANT LYING. I MAY SUE YOU, THAT’S THE AMERICAN WAY.
BUT YOU HAVE NOTHING I WANT. THERE IS NO FREEDOM OF SPEACH OR ANYTHING ELSE. THERE IS NO FREEDOM, NOTHING IS FREE IN THE USA.
If there was “freedom of speach” we would be herd. Yes I think we seek Trust & to be herd. (read it somewhere). We have NO SAY, & NO RIGHTS. NO I AM NOT AMERICAN. WE ARE NOT HERA AS IT IS BAD FOR GOVERNMENTS. SO WE R RID OF OUR RIGHTS & DECERIBATED. QED.
I LIVE IN THE GREATEST COUNTRY THAT EVER WAS, ONE POLITITIANS HAVE TRIED TO RUIN FOR OVER 200 YEARS.
WHEN WE GET THE AIR TAX WE WILL BE PAYING 100% IN TAX. I ALREADY PAY 80% OR SO TO THOSE FOOLS. KEVIN RUDD, AND Co.
WHAT A SHAME I SHARE HIS BIRTHDAY. WHY DOES GEORGE WANT HIM OVER THERE. HE HAD US FROM BOOM TO HEADING FOR RECESSION IN UNDER 5 MINUTES, THEN WE WHERE SAVED BY A MIRICLE. MARY MIKELLOP PERHAPS. (DEAD NUN, WANTING SAINTHOOD).
OK. IT IS GIVEN: GEORGE IS NOT THE SHARPEST TOOL IN THE SHED.
I’D LOVE TO HAVE A BEER WITH GEORGE, HE’S GREAT FUN, VERY COMICAL. TEXAN QUALITIES. WE HAVE A PLACE CALLED TEXAS IN NSW. IT IS POSSIBLY BIGGER UN TEXAS. PEOPLE OWN CATTLE STATIONS BIGGER I AM TOLD THAN EUROPE.
YES the PROVEN Problem with Bi-Polar IS the psychiatrist, yes the pusher!
All you want to do is push the BAD DRUGS & The Pusher. How much do they pay you? The pushers & WORLD WIDE Drug Cartells?
Then on the side you want to sell your “Knowledge” on the topic. Why, well you believe we have uncontroled spending, sexual desire… Yes you. & yours believe we R Mad!
As far as I have read you are as the rest and know NOTHING. ALL OF YOU SIMPLY REGERGATATE THE SAME BULLSHIT! Proven to also be as greedy as a psych. organism.
Who “treated Da-Vinci? And ALL the other GREATS?
Richard Brandson holds a job well, all of your best Presidents….
If the “medicine” is SO good FOR THE mind, why does the Judge tell me:
“Mr. Henry if you have been “medicated” in the last 48 hrs, please do not answer ANY questions.” WHY NOT?
I once called a Judge “Sunshine,” he got upset, told me it was “his” court. I said:”When you show me your Name on the Title Dead, we can talk.” I walked out. I was lucky none laughed.
I went into the Pub next door, then the Brothel. They did not come to get me. We won the case 5 Months later with a new Judge, some OLD Woman.AS ALL WITH “AURTHORITY” SHE DID NOT KNOW HER ARSE FROM HER ELBOW. YOU KNOW I SEEN AN INDIAN DR. HE LITERALY DID NOT KNOW IT. YES I HAD HIM CALL HIS ELBOW HIS ASRE & VICE VERSA. YES HE BULK BILLS ON MEDICARE. INEPT GOV.
The “medication” is so good I need all vital Organs, except the Brain of course (it’s ment to ROT) Tested each Month. If I’m using. There BAD!
THIRDLY as I do not have time, NO Dr. Will try them, why? If there so GOOD? HOW DO THEY KNOW THE EFFECT WHEN THEY HAVNT HAD ONE? THEY KNOW THERE NOT FIT FOR A CAT THAT’S WHY.
If the Crap did what it’s SUPPOSED TO DO. WE WOULD ALL TAKE IT. I FOUND THEY ALL DO THE OPPOSITE OF WHAT THEY SAY THEY DO!
Olanzapine Zyprexa all of it respirodone, ablify, Triptanol… the unknown, unexplained injections, and whatever else there trying to cover up by telling me it was not me but Scott!
HENCE LILLY, MAKER OF OLANZAPINE ZYPREXA IS IN COURT FOR LYING, AND SOMETHING TO DO WITH THE FREEDOM OF SPEACH? MY USE PROVED TO ME ALL THERE CLAIMS WHERE FAULSE, THOUGH THAT IS WHAT ONE EXPECTS. ONE IS NEVER DELUSIONAL!
LILLY CANNOT LOSE IT IS FED TRILLIONS BY THE GOVERNMENT, the Gov. RUN the Courts, so QED!
Also IF LILLY GOES DOWN ALL OTHER “ANTIPSYCHOTIC” “MEDS” WILL HAVE TO BE SCRAPPED, AS THERE ALL THE SAME!! TOO BAD IT IS TOO LATE FOR ME AS MY MIND IS ALREADY RUINED.
YES MY Dr. AGREES THERE ALL THE SAME DRUG! SAME GARBAGE. Therefore if 1 is removed all should go for the same reasons! I SHOULD GET A CHEAP 1 AND CHANGE IT’S NAME & SELL IT FOR 8 TIMES THE COST.
I must have lunch & go to work where I hump steel all day. Can’t see why anybody would want to waste his life lifting weights for NO reason?
AFTRE 10 TO 16 HRS OR SO HUMPUNG STEEL, I OFTEN DRINK ‘TILL IT’S TIME TO GO BACK. NO I DON’T DRINK ON MEDS. THE MEDS ARE LIFE THREATING, AND FAR TOO MANY SIDE EFFECTS.
BYE FOR NOW MY LITTLE ONE. I MUST GO AND MAKE SOMTHING FOR THE WORLD.
STOP WHINGING & Get a job NANCY BOY!
I would suppose the biggest dilemma is finding who are NOT your supporters. The difficulty I had was thinking that people were being supportive of me and turned out to be anything but supportive.
They were against me rather than with me. They did not want to understand nor did they want to be involved in helping me in any way. They caused me a lot of hurt and sadness. I am now regretful that I asked these people for help. They were very harmful.
It is a valid question to ask how to get a good supporter. I know there are support groups and therapists. I would not want to involve my closest friends in my illness. It is difficult for anyone to understand unless they’ve experienced themselves.
Thank you Dave for all your helpfull and lovely emails. I especially like this one because it tells me that I’m finally on the right track. I’m the supporter in our relationship. We live in Holland and unfortunately the support system here is useless. We’ve been together for seven years and our lives have been a real roller-coaster. We haven’t found a propper therapist yet because they obviously don’t know what bipolar means, the only suggestion they had sofar is that my partner should take a assertive course so he would be less aggresive! Everything we know is what we have found on the internet and we developed our own “help/health plan”. We have come a long way and I discovered your webside about 6 months ago. It has been very helpfull and I wish we had discovered it a long time ago. This toppic I liked a lot. It took me a long time to understand that looking after myself was as important as looking after my partner. I always believed that he needed it more and if I did something for myself I thought I was being selffish. Funny enough I decided to take that assertive course and it did me a hell of lot of good. It was nice to be social and I learned to stick up for myself. It helped us in our relationship. People around us don’t understand me or our relationship but I think we go together like a “horse and carriage”!
Thanks Dave for all your effords!
Dave,
This topic really hit. Good advice.
Thank you for being you and it
is to know that you are taking
care of us. Take care.
John
Thank you Dave, you are really a superstar. You are really my inspiration and have answered most of my questions and gave hope to my feelings of despair. I thank you for sending me this free info on how to deal and cope with certain situations and it really gives me a reason to see the positive side of life. I am a very spiritual person, but sometimes my illness tends to hold me back from going to church or even social activities. At the moment I am not seeing any doctors or therapist, but taking medication as prescribed. You have done wonders in letting us know what life is about and to live life to the fullest even when we are in painfull circumstances. I know I felt very depressed lately, but hope things will change. I wish you can answer my question directly, but I know it is not possible.
Thank you Dave
Just wanted to tell you that I thought today’s edition was really good. Keep up the good work. Thank you for all of your hard work in keeping this site going strong. You rock!!!
