It’ll be a miscavige of justice if she isn’t awarded that paltry sum.

Woman not allowed to have complicated feelings about career. News at 10.

I have a cat named Lady Gaga. She has to wear pajamas because of her over grooming. You can feel bad for her. And also think she is adorable.

It’s not white face. Do you see the milk in her hand? If you are sprayed with pepper spray, mace, etc., you pour milk into your eyes. Please stop leaping to conclusions.

Natural gas, as dangerous as it is, isn’t nearly as dangerous as having an oil pipeline going through there. And also, by your logic, because they couldn’t stop one dangerous pipeline, that means it’s open season and other pipelines are fine? Really? That’s like saying “Well, this previous environmental thing caused…

Most asshole behavior really doesn’t get labeled as mental illness. A cycle of sudden sharp increases in assholish behavior plus evidence of delusions is going to get labeled as a mental illness because it’s symptomatic. Yes, sometimes people armchair diagnose standard shitty behavior as a mental illness or even use…

And people wonder where the stigma comes from. It comes from people automatically associating shitty behavior with mental illness, that’s where it comes from.

The way some people treat any form of mental illness on Jezebel is pretty patronizing. They act like anyone with any kind of mental illness lacks any sort of agency whatsoever, and are treated like children who don’t know better. They refuse to acknowledge that even though mental illness can make people do some out…

Seriously! As someone with a mental illness, I have compassion for him and for his family during this time.

I’m sorry. But I really hate this “ X’s a human being so he deserves respect/care/compassion/etc” argument.

You know who else were/are human beings? Trump, Kim Jong un, Hitler, Pol Pot, Mussolini and other Dictators and genocidal Leaders.

Just because someone is a human being doesn’t mean they deserve anything…

Lol, there is a difference between erratic behavior that pops up in cycles and assholery that has continued on down the years. My abusive ex is bipolar- his illness didn’t make him abusive, but it sure was a handy excuse! I have my own situation as well & my mental illness wasn’t why I stayed.

i can’t imagine the amount of panic she must have felt knowing how far away she was from her husband in what could arguably be his biggest time of need. breaks my heart for both of them.

Yeah, as a person who has had one called on them, it’s also upsetting. As far as we may have come in recent years in de-stigmatising mental health, when it comes to a crisis situation, people can still be very cruel and very judgmental. It’s like, okay we get that depression and anxiety are a thing, but if you need…

Well, I called for a mental health wellness check when my neighbor started doing things like screaming Bon Jovi lyrics in the street in the middle of the night and chopping up his front porch with an ax. Your mileage may vary, but that was my experience.

When I read your question my first thought was “Livin On A Prayer, obv”. and lo and behold :)

This month marks 6 years of no psychiatric hospitalization for me after going in every Oct/Nov for 3 years straight. The last stay was almost 4 weeks (two 5150 holds plus a 5250) plus 3 months in outpatient group therapy. Be patient. Listen to your doctors and staff. Advocate your needs. Be kind to yourself. Wishing…

I had to call for one in college for a friend. She was sending Instant Messages (yes! AIM!) to her boyfriend with some pretty suicidal thoughts and threats of self-harm, and he didn’t know what to do, called me, so I packed my shit up at the library and hauled ass across campus to her place. She wouldn’t let me in to…

I read that too quickly and thought you were wishing people deep dish. Which I wouldn’t mind.

With all my intuitive, witchy powers I tell you I have long believed Kanye to be bipolar. Love him, feel for him, he’s a blowhard but brilliant. Let’s try a little compassion- when it comes to mental illness, celebs are really just like us- except sometimes the fishbowl exacerbates the delusions and makes it harder…

Kanye has low-key over the years discussed legitimate mental health issues. I am not somebody who dismisses Kanye as ‘crazy’, but he’s been reasonably direct about it. For all his antics he is still a person, and I hope he’s ok.
