I recently became addicted to the soap channel, became hooked on General Hospital and fell hopelessly in love with 'Sonny Corinthos' ..and then, more recently discovered that the actor who plays him is bipolar and very active in its awareness. I have been very inspired by him after checking out his website and feel like I should pass it along... mauricebenard.tv ...you should check it out, even if you haven't seen his acting!!

I dont know how long you have been watching, but he actually did a story line where Sonny was diagnosed as bi polar. It was really, well real..I didnt know he suffered in real life. Will definately check out his site...

I prefer All My Children did you know he played a character there a long time ago?

I had someone ask me once if I watched soaps, my reply was, NO, my life is a soap. Need I say more.

this is true.. but when you've destroyed every friendship its safer to visit the "people" who you can see every day no matter how you treat them, neglect them.. whatever.. I'm a loon trapped in my house

I think that most of the people in the BIZ are BP. I think its part of what makes them so good at what they do. Theres a long list of celebs who are BP. Like Carrie Fisher and I think Sally Field is as well.

Now lets talk about Tom Cruise. If I had to diagnose him I would say that he has...

1. Obssesive Copulsive Dissorder
2. Narcosistic personality
3. Psychosis
4. Social Anxiety Dissorder
5. Bi-Polar Dissorder

Or maybe its just because he has the soul of an ancient alien living in his body...

I agree with MoodMuzic. The actor that
sticks out with me is Robin Williams.

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
