I have a B.A. in Psychology from the U of M, and I've been living with
a diagnosis for 7 years. I think I know enough. I at least know enough
to not speculate on others' health matters in public forum.

Also, "manic depression" is a term which was retired from use in 1980,
if my quick google search found an accurate result. And if you were to
discuss a person with influenza or cancer, you wouldn't put quotation
marks around those conditions, as if to say "so called."

I'm not going to discuss this anymore in this setting. I don't think
this group or this list should continue on without some kind of
governance, as we run the risk of hurting people who may be in a
vulnerable condition. We shouldn't just bandy about this kind of
nonsense. I respectfully ask that we bring this thread to a close and
wait on the list administrator to weigh in on the matter.

Thanks,

Erik
