Patient discussion about transparent.

Q. How long will our leaders continue sanction this clearly immoral lifestyle? I did research on hetro-sexual lifestyle and found many interesting facts. I do not approve that and we all know the HERETO-sexual lifestyle leads to alcoholism, drug addiction, STDs including AIDS, fatherless children, poverty and spousal abuse. How long will our leaders continue to sanction this clearly immoral lifestyle? I am getting sick on this and I think our future generations would suffer a lot. I have been doing this for quite a while but I think it is time for me to garner some feedback on the issue. Well if you people in this forum have some social responsibilities please share your views.

A. In this case, I think you should have had heterosexual relations in your family stopped 1 generation ago. Not trying to be mean...but I think that if you want to state an opinion about the reason you came to existence...think about not existing...that's what you are proposing, the nonexistence of future generations.

Q. My friends father drinks everyday very heavily and that he is showing clear signs of an alcoholic. My friends father drinks everyday very heavily and that he is showing clear signs of an alcoholic. He becomes unconscious and doesn’t care to answer his mobile calls even. His situation is getting worse every day and he becomes sick very often. I want to know what may be the other disorder that he is prone to

A. sometimes there are things that leads to being an alcoholic...depression can be defiantly one of them. an untreated ADHD can eventually cause addictive behavior. do you think he suffers from any of them?
anyway it sounds like a bad situation that calls for intervention...

Q. Is bipolar is like swiping moods that come and go? one time you are happy things are bright and clear and suddenly you are all complicated with your self and with your surrounding and you are moody and depressed ? is sudden change of mind is the correct definition to a Bipolar Disorder or i did get it all wrong ?

A. good question! most people don't know that Bipolar disorder is not just mood swings that come and go every now and then (if it was - my wife should be diagnosed as bipolar:)) ). it is consisted of long episodes of mania or depression. an episode can be a month or even 6.
