but all of  these people acted like they just "couldn't help it" here's something i heard a lot "i just accept im different from other people. im bipolar. i take my medication, just like a diabetic takes insulin" why relate that to diabetes! there are way too many alternative treatments to get caught in the psychiatrists web. especially if you never fit in with people in general. then being told you have a chronic mental disease? that alone should/could drive people to kill themselves.

why do we jump on the lithium train so quickly nowadays?

Give a man a fire, and he is warm for a day.
Set a man on fire, and he is warm for the rest of his life.

that sort of thing can't be treated with restraints and pills.

i never said any of that is a good reason to kill yourself im saying being told of something like that, that you'll be depressed all your life unless you take pills that could in theory make you worse (i said b4 2 almost made me hang myself).
so to some it could be a death sentence!

my cousins dad was bipolar and prolly schizo. he wasn't but he learned the weirdness from his dad and is pretty much a recluse nowadays.
