rebdoniel –
The more you post -the more you give yourself away.
First you say -“From what I’ve been told, people with this illness can often impulsively do things that involve no longer taking medications, violence, risky spending, etc.”
This is true mostly on people not under care, but then you admit-
“I don’t know about you, but I wouldn’t want my daughter getting involved with a guy on Lamictal with Bipolar I” – so the guy is under care.
And I did a search for Lamictal on the web and it is a very effective drug for Bipolar.
So it looks more & more that you just want to break your ex’s engagement and I don’t even know you.
If a pt. is under mental & medical care for mental illness they can lead relatively normal lives. So again what are you warning them about? Is there any Toieles with your warning?
“I don’t know about you, but I wouldn’t want my daughter getting involved with a guy on Lamictal with Bipolar I”
Why not? Are you bias against people with mental illness?
Did you ever hear of Pennina and Chana?
