My sister once told me that my teacher can only see in 2D but I haven't asked so I don't know.

I have a friend who has epilepsy and a friend who has asthma. Do they count?

Oh, and I have another friend who has a heart condition. She has to take pills or else her heart will beat only a few beats per minute.

My disabilities are not obvious, my dad told me that. Some people say I look almost mentally disabled, but I'm NOT retarded.

Most of my friends who are disabled are the same way. You can barely tell they are disabled.

Bipolar Disorder isn't visible and is a disability (I receive disability for it from the US Social Security Agency). It is not visible in me, unless of course I get overly depressed or agitated.

I have one myself. Endometriosis. Not really a 'disability', but a medical condition.

Well that's wonderful. The hundreds of dollars I paid in taxes today go to support you and your mental issues. Wonderful.

Would you rather me go on a killing spree? Or be homeless? That sounds really humanitarian. People like you make me want to vomit. Try putting yourself into someone else's shoes, you self-centered piece of rubbish.

I am in your shoes, ass hole. I don't make enough money to support my household, I live paycheck to paycheck- too much of which goes to the medications that keep me healthy and living. I don't go on disability and have other people bear my burdens for me just because I need medications to be "normal" or because I don't make enough money.
It's not about being humanitarian, it's about the government using too much of tax payer's money to support those who claim to not be able to support themselves.

You can get a job. If you're medicated, you can function enough to get a mother fucking job and do your best. If you can't make it, you find a way. You get roommates, you stay with friends, you get loans, and learn how to manage on less. Life isn't that hard when you take a step back and make a plan. 90% of my income is gone the day after I get paid, and that's just to cover my bills. Do I ask for other people to pay for my food? NO. I make it work. It can be done, and I wont stop being pissed off at lazy fucks who depend on the government to support them.

I could say stuff, but I am stunned at your ignorance and clear bitterness. If you are as bad off as me, you could have applied for SSI and got it, just like me. You either:
A. Don't have Bipolar to the extent that I do (even medicated)
B. Are just a bitter bitch.

BTW- I take 7 separate Bipolar meds, and I still can't function enough to do jack shit other than sit on my ass in a zombie state from taking the maxed out dose of Zyprexa. If this forum wasn't moderated, I would have some scathing words for you, but for the integrity of my account, I will refrain from them.

Oh, yeah, I am no freeloader. I am ACTIVELY looking for work, and have slaved for four years to earn my Bachelor's degree in Mathematics, which is one of the hardest majors there is. You are a presumptuous, volatile creature that, frankly, needs to take a fucking antipsychotic yourself. Go get an IM of Zyprexa.
