But I just loved the man love haha

Its ok, it might seem homosexual lol

Not that theres anything wrong with that

I can believe part of it. I went through a very hard, painful time such as described during one of my bouts. I don't believe that everybody with bipolar mania has a spiritual emergency or if there is any such thing as a spiritual emergency even. Maybe that the two are confused somehow? I am still taking my meds though. I think I would be dead without them also.

I watched it properly and can see the ' pull' and the pliability potential.

Only if you know, then you know

Wow...I feel all Native Americany quoty like

Boxrep, what do you mean BP IIs wouldn't get it? That our illness isn't that serious in your opinion? I think anyone with a brain understands that this guy in these videos is full of s--t. I do get tired of those with BP I negating what those of us with Type II go through day to day. I'd love to hear your explanation, if you have one.

I think the guy is full of it.
I have never had a psychotic break and hope I never will.
Without my meds I am a lifeless, depressed person who doesn't want to live most of the time. When I go manic(hypo) after a few days I am just restless, irritable and hard to live with. Mania wears me out.

I don't see psychosis as a form of healing at all.

Sam, BP2's lack a sense of humour

That's what beepers with Type I always say when those with Type II are negated and we call y'all on it. Oh it was just a joke. Sure it was. And I don't lump all Type I beepers together. But some of you think what you suffer with is worse than what those of us with Type II go through. We may not have the sometimes psychotic manias you all have but our depressions are very deep and hard to get rid of. There should be no mine is worse than yours. Each experience is that individual's own, whether Type I or Type II. Joking, yeah right.

This whole thread is about Psychosis.
Watch Criminal Minds and keep theorising. And go easy on the ' being more depressed' yawny stuff. BP 1 for a reason...numbered as 2 for a reason also.
Box is right


Interesting the way that people respond to the Psychosis stuff that have never even had it.Always the same thing.

88 the end doesnt justify the means.
Hey I got rich but I had to steal to get it.
That logic is flawed.

Psychiatrists don't have to experience every mental illness they treat to know the ins and outs of it and how best to treat the patient. Just because I've never experienced psychosis doesn't mean I don't know what it is and how it can manifest.

I don't base my knowledge on television shows, though they can bring about interesting points. I know longer watch CSI because of how inaccurate it is regarding forensic science and the length of time it supposedly takes to figure out how someone died. A day or two? I think not. Try 6 to 8 weeks.

There is an attitude among some Type I Bipolar people that their illness is worse than anything a Type II could experience. Yes, they are different. I know this. But don't negate what we go through. Neither one is easy and Type IIs commit suicide as well. I have a minor in psychology. I do know a thing or two about mental illness.
