The Mental Illness Thread

There's a lot of truth to this.  My first therapist this go around insisted that I was, in fact, not bipolar, despite having a diagnosis from a psychiatrist in the same office, and his recommendation for me was to watch some funny movies.

Yeah, I fired him after two sessions.
