What is Bipolar Disorder? (Bipolar #1)

BIPOLAR-FRAUDSTER plaidpotamus babbled - "What's your take on schitzophrenia?"

I don't have one. Could you, perchance, have meant "schizophrenia"? You F**king bipolar-frauds claim to be so clever, but somehow you can't spell, can't think, are very ignorant, know almost nothing, and have academic qualifications of, about, zilch.

There may even be genuine schizophrenics. There probably are some, maybe many. There probably are some genuine bipolars. But the majority of claimed bipolars are liars.

Semi-smart? Your brain capacity must be so minuscule I doubt couldn't hold a teaspoon of water.
People like you, ignorant, spiteful people with no real opinion should go and find a book and actually educate yourself, if you can find it humanly possible.
People like you are the reason people like me find it so hard to talk about having bipolar disorder. You ignorant "moron".

(To Gurn Si)

You are such an idiot. I've suffered from bipolar disorder since I was 8 years old.
You think an 8 year old has the brain capacity to invent symptoms of a mental illness and have the sheer gall to display them on a daily basis?
Do you think now, as an adult, I would go around bullshitting, getting myself arrested, losing friends and driving my family away? You are such an idiot. You should seriously watch what you're saying.

Semi-smart? Y

Seriously, GurnSi needs to get a life. Or get laid. Only a real sad-sack-of-S**t spends this much time or energy ripping on bipolar people (or any group, for that matter). Pathetic - WE should feel sorry for HIM.

It was a delusion incited by a manic episode, no doubt ;)

Also: What's your take on schitzophrenia?
Both illnesses share many common traits.
Are you saying that, that illness is "a fraud" as well.

I'd love to read the article you supposedly found on PubMed. Show us all the link. Was it written by an idiot -- much like yourself?

@GurnSi:

Ever hear of brain waves & Chemical imbalances, you ignorant piece of S**t ? Maybe you should expand your knowledge on the subject before acting like you know everything & attacking anyone that:

a. knows more than you
b. has a different opinion
c. is dealing with this illness or has someone close to them with it.

Hey there, moron!

If a semi-smart person looks long enough at any large data-set, he will find some correlation.

The real issue is whether or not that correlation is simply the result of chance/fluke.

The really smart person knows that.

So take your DSM4, sharpen it with a knife into a point, sit on it and screw down... slowly. ;-)

These cucking funts think they have us fooled. Their wicked misconduct is NOT going to be excused by us on the grounds of their imaginary "illness". SHUN THEM!

This area contains the minimum interesting region between D12S342 and D12S1658 suggested by the previously reported haplotypes in the two Danish families with bipolar affective disorder. Molecular Psychiatry (2001) 6, 450-455.

It's called Medical Science for a reason.
