| Originally posted by Damerchi its genetic. The documentary Lira posted talks about how its a result of a combination of genes, and if you have it it is almost certain that it is present in your family. Stephen Fry contributes his DNA for the research in it. Even though MRI scans cannot determine the difference between a normal brain and an afflicted one, there is overwhelming evidence to show repeated patterns of behavior similar to ancestors. I have read studies that indicate there is a 1/4 chance of passing on the gene if you have it... regardless of what the mother is consuming during pregnancy. |

| Originally posted by The17sss Right... I understand. More speficically, I was referring to people who's mental disorders were manifested because of their drug use/abuse when they had no previous history of mental illness... not a substance abuse disorder. Man, those diagnoses are getting more and more detailed and complex with each DSM revision, aren't they? |

| Originally posted by Dj Skez Bipolar disorder is no joke, I've seen a grown man in the middle of work break down into tears out of the blue at my old job. When I asked my supervisor what was up, he simply replied that he's been struggling with his bipolar disorder befor I even started working there. Science got it down to a chemical inbalance and fucked up electrical currents not passing through in a "normal" way through stem cells. I can't imagine the way it really is to live with it. |
This is amazing
HOW LONG WILL HE GO?

i see why people left the forum now.
no one is willing to step up and have a mature conversation, when a mature reply or thread is posted.
everyone feels the need to make fun of everything just to make themselves feel better and feed their ego, because in reality they consider themselves worthless and are insecure in their lack of abilities.
what a shame. scared to be yourselves, you hide every last detail, with very bad jokes. try and have some courage y'all.
This thread was made in 2009. Someone bumped it today, and you spent hours replying to people that said what they said 3 years ago.
Don't be getting all upitty with us because you did that, it's no one's fault but your own.
May I ask, have you been formally diagnosed with bi-polar disorder? If not, what is your intense interest in this 3-year-old thread?

Relax, mate.
Nearly everyone that posts here regularly knows what Mattinsanity is like.
No, he's not in any need of help.
Fair go, if you want to reply to 3-year-old posts, that's your business. You won't be getting many replies from those people though. That's another "point of the forum" as you say. It's referred to as "paying attention".

| Originally posted by zidumare everyone keeps talking about "chemical imbalance" but if you go ask a doctor, nurse, specialist, this question: "can you please prove to me what exactly is a chemical imbalance?" they will all respond the same way: "no, i cant prove a chemical imbalance exists" there are a lot of mis-representations when it comes to "mental illness" espescially bi-polar disorder. |

Hey Z. Now that is what I call atonement.
Re: OP
Bi-polar disorder is especially awful combined with schizophrenia, formal thought disorder, or even just schizotype mental illnesses.
Not knowing whether the things you see, hear, or feel are actually happening just adds to the frustration of bi-polar disorder. I've spent the beginning of this year apologizing to close friends, colleagues, and especially to my roommate for previous violent episodes, and abberant behavior.
Surprisingly, what's helped the most has been long acting ADHD meds my psychiatrist prescribed me a couple month's ago, which gradually boost norepinephrine levels. I've tried for so many years to just get things under control by will power alone, but sometimes it's simply brain chemistry.
Can't say this is something I'd start a thread about, mainly because most people simply can't understand how debilitating these kinds of things are. It feels great to finally be focused, now that the paranoia, hallucinations, and mood swings have begun to subside. Even my HPPD has finally subsided after several years.
Most likely if you're bi-polar, and being active (i.e. regular exercise) isn't helping, you probably just need to find the right meds to balance you out. I know people well into their 40's and 50's whose lives have been completely ruined by bi-polar disorder, and related mental illnesses. It's tough to maintain a positive attitude at times, but it's possible to pull through okay with the right combination of treatments.

| Originally posted by zidumare "chemical imbalance" is just a THEORY proposed, and anyone who has studied science knows that a THEORY, can never be proven correct. |
this thread makes it look like half of TA is mentally ill
yes it does kind of surprise me
Welp, you don't need to be a scientist to know for a fact that zidumare is an idiot.
