In Off-topic

and look at symptoms. I am not looking for anysort of sympathy; just understanding. I do not take medication due to the fact that it's expensive (very if you don't have heathcare) and they haven't found one that works well with my chemisty. It's also one of the reasons I don't currently work, I lost my job of five years because of complications due to it.

So I deeply apologize for my sometimes retched behavior. Sometimes complusions over POWer common sense with me.

I'm also very new to this forum thing, in fact I never knew they existed until a few months ago. So I am sorry if the though to put all one thought into one single thread didn't occur to me.

If you want to defend yourself against icky people, use this.

If used on a human, they can go blind permenantly.

You honestly don't have anything to apologize for Jenni. I didn't even notice you had done anything untoward until it was pointed out. I see some real crap posted at the various forums I go to so something like a few similar topics being posted I didn't even notice. If you want to see some real bad posting try spending 5 minutes at the gamefaq forums!

Yeah, there's really no need to apologize.
It's ok.
Better threads with sex than flame wars I say.

Keep on posting. It's always fun to read it.

I'm not surprised by what you've just said Jenni, from all your posts and after I checked out your website...I sorta instantly felt a kinship towards you. We are so much alike, it's uncanny. Besides my kidney problems...I've also got Bi-polar disorder and Social Anxiety disorder. I understand about coming online and being over the top, because it's hard to do so in real life sometimes and express yourself...because you don't want to be around real people. I went and got tattooed all over and carry my tough image for one reason...it keeps people away from sheer fear of making me mad when I'm in public. Didn't always realize that until a few years ago. I can barely make it through Wal-mart and out the front door without hyper-ventilating. But I put on my "I'll kill you if you even breathe my direction" act towards anyone who looks at me, because I'm not about to let them know I'm actually shaking inside. If you ever wanna talk about stuff...PM me by all means. I'm slowly fixing some of my problems...I'd be happy to help you too in any way I can.

My friend is Bi-Polar. Most oif the time he seems normal. Only sometimes....won't get into it. Theres no need to feel bad Jennie. You been a great poster .

The "funny articles" were amusing, I just saw the oppurtunity to make a joke out it. It's just my nature. If you pitch it underhanded, I am going to knock it out of the park.
Sometimes these "jokes" backfire however, and we really get to see what individuals are made of.

So in Jenni's defense (since this is really about my mockery) she handled the situation maturely and even shed some more personal info about herself. It really helps to let everyone know where you're coming from.

I have not seen you do anything rash or make any form of poor or extreme judgement. I have seen you joke about being sexist and stuff but thats about it. . .

Bipolar is a very overused diagnosis in the psychiatric community (It involves how much the doctors are paid, etc.) that tends to be a catch-all for incompetent doctors. Before you start to think that you need meds, check up the symptoms of "borderline personality disorder".

I don't know you that well, and don't want to ask about symptoms on a public forum (you can PM me if you want) but 90% of the young women I see that think they are bipolar (because someone told them they were) are not.
