Stupid Dislaimer: I despise 'hiding' behind illnesses and diagnosis'. I always strive to retain accountability for my actions and decisions without pointing to the 'MAH ILLNESS MADE ME DO IT' bullshit. I am a firm believer in this.
That said...
Bipolar disorder here, is the official diagnosis. Originally it was ADHD / Depression, but bipolar disorder is essentially a combination of the two disorders' symptoms.
I take various shit for it.
You can be like DISORDERS??? LOL NAAAHHHH but the facts remain that not everyone throws knockout punches for the same reasons, or have 'car accidents' involving shovels through the windshield, etc...
Some call it a short fuse, bad temper, whatever. I am a believer in the medical necessity of certain medicinal treatments for certain people and behaviors.
However, I know that the pharmaceutical industry is incredibly corrupt and I wish them all to get AIDS and die in a chemical fire.
So I take my medication, am court ordered (don't ask) to attend therapy and anger management and otherwise do my best to control my temper.
I also have shitty hearing IRL. Born with it, it's degenerative. So basically every few years I get tested, I have less and less hearing. Makes raiding a pain in the ass sometimes, but I find that if I research the fights thoroughly to the point of knowing every aspect, it's not a problem mid-fight...though I miss the banter and bullshit that others enjoy during trash :[
If anyone is interested in becoming more knowledgeable I'd be happy to chat about mental illness and possibly share my experiences and thoughts. You can reach me via AIM if you are seriously interested.
