Default Bipolar ? Look at the Symtoms !!!

First off I'm not makeing a joke.

But looking at the symtoms we all are Bipolar if you listen to this Drug company.
http://www.seroquel.com/bipolar-disorder/about-bipolar-disorder/what-is-bipolar-disorder.aspx?source=337&wt.mc_id=SQL2H08IICSBIPAD H&wt_srch=1ike to hear you opinions on this,

A pill will fix everything. What ever happened to Family,Friends and a TRUSTED Medical Professional ?

While not opposed to medication, I don't believe in masking the problem with a Trank.

I'd like to hear your opinions on this.

I'm bi-polor and so am I. Everyone thinks a pill will fix everything. If not, drink! IMO, pills have become an easy out for problems that can be solved without drugs. I'm still not convinced of attention deficit disorder. In my day, pay attention or get your ears boxed. :p

I wouldn't confuse normal highs and lows to mania and depression. If you've ever seen someone exhibiting these symptoms you'd never confuse them.

You got that right.

Pills to make you skinny. Forget about exercise and a proper diet.

A pill if you sneeze. Forget about blowing your nose to get the dust out.

A pill if you can't shet. Another if you can't stop.

I could go on.... But I have a headache so I need a aspirin.:p :rotfl:

Don't forget the pill that can make soft tissue hard.... if up to four hours, consult your physician

I knew a bi-polar girl.
She died running across the road in euphoria after giving all her money away to strangers. I only heard about that a long time after I stopped knowing her.
She was like that when she was high and very different when she was low. Never anything in between.
A real shame.

Funny how this song is becoming a self-fulling prophecy...

It's heartbreaking for family and friends when the case is severe.

I've seen it close up and it's not a pretty sight.

I used to have a friend / co worker whom would answer nearly any question as follows.

" Yes... uhhh,,, No... ,,, errr well Maybe"...

Now I passed him off as undecisive and possible BiPolar untill I realized the brilliance behind this.

You see no matter which answer the questionaire wanted to hear he heard it, while in the meantime it was never answered at all.

So in some ways being bipolar as described here can be taken as an advantage.

I do not discredit there are definitely psycological disorders, some right here at SS, however, I think society is to quick to medicate.

Don't think you can be bipolar enough to change your mood every other second:p.

I agree 100%, especially for ADD in children. It should be the last resort but it's usually the first...

You both so are right.

Oh ! Oh ! My cat is stareing at me. I guess we both need a pill of some kind. :rotfl:
