I am married to a bi-polar manic-depressive who, fortunately, is one of few who actually wants to take his meds. It was a promise he made to me before we walked down that aisle and one he knows he has to keep.<BR/><BR/>When we first got together, E asked me if I was afraid of his disease and I told him no. I have seen bi-polars at their best and at their worst. After you deal with someone so mentally disturbed from a law enforcement stand point you learn to replace fear with compassion and understanding. <BR/><BR/>I'm so happy that they responded to you and that Bill's life is getting back on track.BarefootCajunhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13960018125640941576noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10755833.post-1129900676950278412005-10-21T08:17:00.000-05:002005-10-21T08:17:00.000-05:00I think that may be why my brief time working in t...I think that may be why my brief time working in the mental health field was so brief. In the time I spent there, I saw how mental health providers take advantage of the funds provided by medicaid/medicare, and don't get down to the real issue of actually doing something for those who actually need help. By the time all this "planning" and "interviewing" and "follow-up surveys" are done and billed, there are no funds left to "treat".Legacy Userhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11161208110035488124noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10755833.post-1129889136372770252005-10-21T05:05:00.000-05:002005-10-21T05:05:00.000-05:00I don't cry a lot, but everytime you write about y...I don't cry a lot, but everytime you write about your brother, it brings tears to my eyes.<BR/><BR/>And I think about my own little CartoonBoy and how well he's developed thanks to all the active interest that doctors, psyciatrists, teachers, day care center and a whole lot of other people have taken in him. It seems so unfair that two western countries are worlds apart.PissedOffPencilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01948263739795058522noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10755833.post-1129863708012744252005-10-20T22:01:00.000-05:002005-10-20T22:01:00.000-05:00I am so glad that the residential director was rec...I am so glad that the residential director was receptive.
