Hi pekkla, I'm not dodging your question. I'm not going to talk much about my own bipolar symptoms because I would like to help to keep the focus on your son. However, I am diagnosed with Asperger's syndrome and bipolar disorder type I. You have some well-founded concerns that your son may have bipo...

Thanks, Mike. I appreciate your therapy suggestion. Ted is a friend and I would like to help, if I can. I am going to talk about the situation with a local friend that I have known for over 15 years. I am confident that he will tell me the same things you are all telling me, and I really appreciate ...

I have minimized contact with this friend. It's hard, but the dude needs to get into some serious therapy.

Um, he could be a pedophile. I don't know how close of a friend he is, but I would be bringing his activities to the attention of the local police.

Thanks, Molly.

Boxing in my own opinion is the only sport that really calms down. it makes you a better person every time you put the gloves on.

I agree that it's calming. I like to think I'm a better person every time I put the gloves on. I like that outlook!

I have been taking Seroquel for about six weeks (since June 14). Overall, I am getting good results with it. My doctor started me on 25 mg/day, and now I am taking 100 mg/day. I don't know if the dose will increase from there, but she was suggesting it could go up to 300 or 400 mg/day, depending on ...

I can't call myself a chess-boxer yet, but I would like to do it. The sport is big in the UK and other parts of Europe. I think that kind of competition would be very intense and very challenging.

I've been boxing, on and off, since I was a boy (11 years old). It's probably the sport I play best.

When people become too certain about almost anything, that thing turns into an object of extreme dogma and fanaticism. That's very dangerous stuff. you get a :star: Thanks! My goal is not to seek praise, but I'll gladly accept it when it comes my way. :) I'm really concerned with the insistence, wi...

its like the santa de la rosa or whatever its called. (the place where jesus suposidley carried his cross) This is a minor point, but for the record, I think you mean the Via Dolorosa . That's Latin for the "Way of Suffering" (or perhaps, "Way of Pain"). I've studied a fair amount about the so-call...

I see your points about the December 25 date and the question of the genealogies of Jesus. At the same time, I would not dismiss Jesus as a lie, merely because reasonable minds can disagree about how to interpret certain historical facts or the lack thereof.
