    Yes.  People often take medications to control the symptoms of mental illness. Also, there are a variety of symptoms that only a trained professional would detect immediately. People can have severe anger issues, addictions, depression, etc. which are classified as mental illness.

    Yes, every time I look in a mirror.

    robert, there's a lot of truth to that for you and me and several people on here. hee hee.

    These days everyone suffers from some disorder or another...the trouble lies in the stigma attached to mental illness and the rather troubling fact that we know more about the moon than we do about the human brain....sad, but true...

    Nearly everybody has a few screws loose, but the ones with screws missing are the ones who get in my way acting "normal" until you marry him.  Abusive, narcissistic scumbag, that one.....

    Romos, my sons will tell you, they throw like a girl cuz Mom taught them how to play baseball. Where was Dad? In his "office", thinking of new ways to not get a job.

    Yes quite a few times, but it didn't take me long to realize they were mentally ill.

    Yes,Sometimes it can build up slowly , over a number of years. I told my parents when I was about in teh 8th grade, that I needed to see a psychiatrist. They didn't beleive me and I just got worse.......which ended up with  the school having me see the school  psychiatrist when I was in the 11th grade and then   had a nervous break down. So, the school sent me and my parents to a psychiatrist twice a week at U of M hospital. My parents had to pay for it and they could barely afford it. We scraped by. That's what they get for fluffing me off when I told them years back that I was mentally ill.

    No,MCM, she divorced me, so perhaps she had a few sane brain cells.
    mycatsmom

    my husb claimed his first wife was mental too, and a bit- -- .Or, as Nancy Reagan said, " A witch with a B "

    My ex was very Tempermental........50% Temper and 50% MENTAL
