Enter Labs Chat at you peril !

^ Take a big stick !

Just about everyone has some sort of mental problem if you analyse the definitions of individual mental problems.
It's all about degrees.

I don't think I know anybody who is normal.

Except me of course

I'm normaller than most.

That's one of the things about mad mad people. They always think it's everyone else.

what a load of bolloxs. the trouble with a majority of todays society is that they all want to be victims.what about rolling your sleeves up and just getting on with it.

I also found that lloyds advert somewhat disturbing.  Does the bank do something to its custormers!! ho ho.  I know my plaice

When the attention seekers jumped on the mental illness bandwagon I was instantly cured of any potential mental ilnesses for life it's like a badge of honour now and it takes away from the REAL sufferers.

The idea that 1 in 4 is suffering from "Mental Illness" is ludicrous. We can happily forget that absurd claim.

Sadly, we can't overlook the truly disturbing one below.

More and more people are suffering from high blood pressure, high cholesterol, high blood sugar, arthritis and many more ailments; almost everything they make a tablet for is on the increase.

We need more doctors and more drugs. There's no cure for anything because they're not looking for cures, they're looking to make money out of illness.

Mental illness is merely the current nice little earner on the list that's being expanded.

In America recently, they diagnosed another load of people with high blood pressure by simply lowering the readings needed to confirm the condition.
At a stroke many more hundreds of thousands of people needed medication for hypertension.
The same as they did with cholesterol, and also here in the UK..   
What they considered was the safe level of cholesterol used to be higher, but they lowered it for no apparent reason and suddenly lots more people were suffering with high cholesterol.
More money for the pharmaceutical industry.

More and more people need medication of some kind, and they're getting younger.

They are an equal opportunities defrauder.

True Dr C saw an article about the rise of antidepressants prescribed to children - customers for life.

Also what as a bank got to do with mentle illness? shouldn't they be facing some inquiry? like your job is to look after () our money? not tell us all we are mentally stuffed

So basically they are telling us 1 in 4 is mentally ill, whilst at the same time trying to get us to take out loans?

Someone I knew years ago had a child with behaviour problems.
The doctor put him on tablets but of course they had no effect.

This person I knew decided to lay into the kid with a stick every time he played up or got sent home from school. They could in those days.

It had the desired effect.

The doctor took the credit for the kid's improved behaviour and they all lived happily ever after.

Are his legs still functional?

Well exactly

Funny how mentle illness is making them a s*** load of money, and if by magic its now 1 in 4 of us who suffer from it

Global Warming as morphed into climate change, and they are now calling a heat wave in Japan a "natural disaster", that big ball of fire in the sky is now a natural disaster is it? well only to a point you see, because as we know they need to save a little of that "climate change"

Having it both ways and eating the sodding cake to boot

Natural disaster implies its not man made, but they are saying this natural disaster is?

Its absolutely bonkers it really is

They are looking for cures.  The sugar tax for one.

I'm on Allopurinol for life and thank fook I'm on it.  Never had gout since.  Beats suffering excruciating pain because some idiot doesn't think medication is good for you.

I'm also with STUDYFORM.  Nearly everyone has it.  Far more than 1 in 4 blokes don't go to the doctors because of anxiety imho.

Being less dismissive about mental illness and expressing how common it actually is helps those with problems to ask for help.  The sooner they get help the better.

Anxiety is normal, some people just aren't comfortable in social situations, more comfortable on their own, its perfectly normal

Its an individual thing imo, some people like being in big crowds and are more comfortable in social situations than others

They say sports stars get "anxious" in certain situations in a match? do they need drugs as well?

Mental illness is real thats for sure , conditions like Schizophrenia , Manic Depression and Serious Depressions are only too real, have a look inside a Psychiatric Unit if you dont think it exists

Chemical imbalance caused through the administration of drugs, anxious

Everyone feels "low" sometimes, for every high the body needs to compensate and create a low.

"for every high there's a low"

These people in psychiatric wards were probably semi normal until they were given all kinds of rubbish (drugs)

It's the gout that gives you pain CLYDBANK29, not someone's opinion that medication is bad for you. Which it is by the way.

No one in their right mind would suffer chronic gout instead of taking Allopurinol, or by not making the necessary dietary changes.

But society will happily be told they are mentally ill, its a victim mentality society we live in, and society loves big government to wrap them up in bubble wrap, its an easy life innit.

Coffee makes me go to the toilet a lot

So

I don't drink coffee simples

Gout is linked to metabolic syndrome - overweight, high blood pressure, heart disease, diabetes.

High blood pressure is easily dealt with, cut out caffeine and other rubbish, eat more fruit and exercise regular

There may something in what you say but to say mental illness does not exist is ill informed garbage

So if people think people are plotting to kill them or that they are disciples of Jesus , this is normal is it ?

We are all disciples of Jesus.

So if people think people are plotting to kill them or that they are disciples of Jesus , this is normal is it ?

It is to them.

No i mean if somebody is incoherent and trying to break into a church , or other forms of bizarre behaviour

The media don't help in todays world, all you hear about is death, death, death, more death, war, war, etc etc

The media are contributing to the high level of paranoia, yet they will sell you stories of mentle illness

The media are constantly telling people there's an enemy, they are going to destroy us all

I know its bull****, but the majority on there prescription drugs, which increases paranoia by the way, will believe it

Get them all on drugs, and then tell them ISIS is coming for them

Its like magic mushrooms gone wrong

I agree the media do not help 24/7 tv is sensationalized, but even without that there would still be Mental illness , its existed for hundreds of years

Jockey Wilson never brushed his teeth because he thought there was someat in the water or the toothpaste.  Lost all his teeth by 28

I think social media is far more to blame than mainstream media for the rise in mental health problems

Sleep deprivation can cause Psychosis , so can drugs and drug withdrawal

Even Infections and Diabetes can make people very depressed , so can physical pain

A lot of the yoofs these days are teetotal. That can't help.

FFS

My post was about Jocky being a big drinker, also fizzy pop etc being the reason he lost his teeth

Wild animals like lions don't lose their teeth and they don't use toothpaste

My little cousin lost her front teeth because of too much robinsons squash, and she used toothpaste

Tommy should consider stopping manufacturing the squash imo.

nah not that as I like the stuff myself

Just saying all the food and drinks we eat and drink contribute to poor teeth/breath

Don't trust GPs. They know far less than they're given them credit for.

Dietary changes can bring spectacular results when dealing with mental illness as with many other common ailments.
The proof has been around for decades. Yet because the procedure doesn't involve drugs it's hardly ever considered in mainstream medicine.

The failure rate of conventional medicine to cure anything, should make anyone with a problem try a strict starch based diet for a couple of weeks and see if things improve.

One thing's for sure, your GP won't have the answer except to treat your symptoms as you gradually get worse.

Sometimes thing cannot be cured only controlled , but crippen i take your point about diet yes its important , but there are lots of reasons people become ill

Far more things can be cured through diet alone than is generally realised.

I'm not talking about managing a complaint, I'm saying it can be cured by changing your diet.

But while people eat for the pleasure it gives them, the advice usually falls on deaf ears.

^And of course it flies in the face of conventional medical wisdom.

Got to be one of the stupidest adverts ever ...
Can you imagine walking into Lloyds Bank ...look mate I want to open a Bank account, I'm off me head, have all sorts of mental issues, in fact a complete nutter - so can I have a Bank account, Credit Card and big overdraft.

Does it still feature a black hoarse?

So Crippen if diet alone could cure mental illness dont you think masses of people would be flocking to these magic alternative practitioners ?

shrooms?

It's obviously not for the likes of you anxious.

You get down to the doctors and eat your tablet sandwiches like a good patient.

Crippen its irrelevant what i do , a while ago on another thread you described mental illness as merely being down the dumps , do you still stand by that ?

I didn't write that.
You've misrepresented what I said anxious.

You can't even get that right.

I call that lying.

Why what did you say exactly then ?

You did say Depression was the same as being down the dumps

I didn't say that.

anxious, I suggest you pee off, and take that chip on your shoulder with you.

Why should i pee off ? , are you in charge on here or something ?

never go on facebook twitter thingies - you will get depressed and hang yourself

it would be hilarious if it wasn't so darn serious

why do they do it

it's the thought of selling bank services to unstable people wot makes me larf

fkn hypos  the lot of the

https://twitter.com/anxietyuk?lang=en

AVOID!

Full of whingers.

The food's full of hormones and what not and 'e' numbers. The air's full of that chemtrail stuff and other polutants, and the water stinks of chlorine and has flouride and all that in it.

Not to mention all the new diseases they've invented in the last few decades.

no wunda there's so much illness around.

I'm all for a bit of de population for the sake of the wildlife but not like this. There's contraception for that kind of thing.

Exactly Get me a drink.
Then there's the immigrants coming here coughing spitting and farting over us bringing all kinds of diseases with them.
No wonder we're all ill.

I wonder if the Mentally Ill Peoples  Loan applications ,are rushed through to save any Anxiety by the Black Horse Mob ?

I've got a luvly pair of buboids.

My bank drives me fxxking mad

As for new Things

Lot of these A diseases about these Days ..

Sling in your Aspergers and Autism another two A conditions ,I never heard of or seen as a Child ..

No doubting Mental Illness and the carnage it causes in peoples Lives  but 1 in 4 ??

Mind you Thinking about it are Lot of the Maurauders are Mentally ill Perhaps its a Religion thing .

As with lot of things its open to abuse and blagging , 1 in 4 i would not agree but there is no doubt real mental illness exists and can cause real suffering

Aspergers and Autism. When I was at school they where just naughty kids

At my age I couldn't give a fxxk what people think of me. Looking at my life I'm far better off than a lot of people regarding my material life and far more important my family life. I have a good woman, two sons who are both fine young men. I'm about to become a Grandfather but I still can suffer from mild depression, why I don't know as I say on the outside looking in. I have nothing to be depressed about
