What's with all these bi-polar people?

[Kev]

People that are actors/artists/creative types have a greater number of mental disorders than people that are not by percentage. So that we have many that have mental disorders should be no surprise.

What is make them great at whatever art avenue they pursue also is or contributes to their mental instability.

Thoughts?

My thought is that you should spell check your thread and edit it so that it makes sense

Onto Zeta Jones. I think we should note a few points.

Firstly, it is the media who have labelled her bi polar I don't believe she announced those words to the world.

Secondly she is a very high profile and wealthy person coping with the very real possibility of the loss of her husband. She can afford the costs of going off to a specialist centre for the kind of therepy and one to one psychological counselling that would probably be a benefit to a lot of us at times in our life if we could justify the expense.

I don't see the big deal really. It's the same as going to a spar or health retreat for a few days of detox. Most of are in no position to do such a thing, but if we were multi millionaires with no limits it would be quite common to kickstart a health plan that way.

Similarly here she was feeling down and so did this to help lift her mood,a change of scenery, chance to talk through her problems in a secure enviroment etc.

That the tabloids decided to run with the article 'Zeta Jones Bi Polar' really says more about them and us than her.

Like when they went to town on the 'disgustingly racist' Jade Goody for calling Shilpa Shetty a poppadom and in the exact same issue reported on Chinese snooker sensation Ding Jui with the headline 'Pot Noodle'

Or how their sister paper the News of the world will go undercover to expose the sordid secrets of our celebrities and make the most absurd moral judgements on them and then it turns out that they themselves are all a bunch of illegal phone tapping criminals.

I wish the judges would get tough and ban the Sun and News of the world and stop anyone who works on the papers for ever being involved in 'journalism' again.
