There is no shortage of bi-polar gun nuts among those hard hat union guys Harry loves so much. What does that have to do with how many whack jobs are in the military?? Just putting it perspective. How would you know what the incidence of bipolar disorder might be among organized construction workers? By knowing lots of them. One of the byproducts of my working class, no higher education, proletariat life is I spent most of my life around the rank and file, not the union leaders and business agents you sipped coffee with. I also spent a lot of time around the trades here in Florida. The most depressed are northern union types who moved here because there was no work up there. Judy had a guy just recently (Michigan steelworker) who she thought was most likely to show up and shoot everyone. The club manager was afraid to fire him. That's just amazing, Greg...I mean, of course, your ability to diagnose specific mental illnesses without benefit of a higher education in the field, training, apprenticeships, or working under the supervision of a licensed professional in the field. All that non-education and non-training has qualified you to diagnose bipolar disorder. In the case of this guy, his wife told my wife about his history and medication. She was afraid of him too. Ahh, so you can't tell because you know "a lot of them," you had specific information. Usually the tip off is the drugs they carry around. Lithium ain't for a stuffy nose That's true. What's next on your bucket list, discovering the prevention and cure for multiple sclerosis? I never said I had a cure Nobody really does., They can get the drugs dialed in to allow people to function but that changes over time so they need constant monitoring and a lot of these people stop taking them. Worst case, they self medicate with alcohol or street drugs. I understand you live vicariously through your wife but I have actually lived around a lot of these people, on and off their meds. People who would have you locking your car door if you saw them on the street. Certainly nobody you would talk to down at the 7-11 Because of my wife's profession, I've met quite a few people with serious mental/emotional disorders, including some who have been hospitalized for long periods of time...years, in several cases. BFD. My wife was around my profession of computer engineering for 40 years. She still does not like them or really understand them. She does understand bipolar disorder. Her mom suffered from it even before my wife was born. Probably a hell of a lot better understanding than the play toy of a pseudo shrink. There's nothing that compares to right-wing ignorance. Left wing ignorance. There's no comparison. Remember the Democratic Senator who quizzed a Navy Admiral about Guam flipping over? |
