PLEASE NOTE: The Reality TV World Message Boards are filled with desperate attention-seekers pretending to be one big happy PG/PG13-rated family. Don't be fooled. Trying to get everyone to agree with you is like herding cats, but intolerance for other viewpoints is NOT welcome and respect for other posters IS required at all times. Jump in and play, and you'll soon find out how easy it is to fit in, but save your drama for your mama. All members are encouraged to read the complete guidelines. As entertainment critic Roger Ebert once said, "If you disagree with something I write, tell me so, argue with me, correct me--but don't tell me to shut up. That's not the American way."

77. "RE: I am alive and well, thank you ..."
joy, you make some valid points but i would like to share something that i dont share often.

i have bipolar disorder. most ppl hear that and from then on blow off anything i say or do because i am "nuts"

i was diagnosed in 1989. i immediately stopped drinking. my experiences having this illness have run the gamut. one thing tho...i do NOT blame my behavior on the bipolar. some do. it is easy to say "i screamed at somebody because i have bipolar" replace the bipolar with ADHD.

from what i see, tj hasnt blamed her adhd for her behavior when it was bad. it can be so easy to behave badly and rather than be accountable, blame it on an illness. i dont have alot of respect for ppl who claim their behavior is due to some disorder.

tj never did. her diagnosis with adhd didnt make her blame her early anger and assertiveness on it. she recognized that she had adhd, but didnt use it as a crutch.

i know how you support tj. i just wanted to clarify about anyone thinking her behavior was ok due to adhd. we are always accountable and cant expect ppl to sympathize if we arent willing to help ourselves. you mention tj coming across as a tough girl. i was that way. in my first marriage, i made the money and decisions about things. it took alot of therapy and meds to be able to be objective. i think tj is the same. you cant ignore your issues and expect ppl to allow it, out of pity or ignorance.

pls dont think i am bashig. your support is evident and your questions valuable. i just wanted to give an idea as to how and why our behavior is often a way to not take ownership of our issues.
