how do YOU handle the mental illness question?

Posted by terra miller on May 23, 2002, at 9:44:23

When someone asks you if you have a "mental illness," does your stomach start to get into knots? Do you just want to say, "No"? To qualify it doesn't seem to do anything but "prove" to them that you're trying to hide something (like stigma, maybe?!.... sometimes I'm just not up to reeducating the general population about stigma, you know.)

I don't feel "mentally ill." (I'm not even sure what that is interpreted as in our society anymore. I don't think many take it at face value as "having a brain that needs a little extra help right now.")

Just wondered if any of you have had to ponder how to answer that question when/if it comes up?

ugh.

Terra,

I still haven't forgotten about the wellbutrin info but if you follow psb you can chronicle my latest meltdown.

I have so many things I want to say about this one too.

It really depends on the day and my mood. Sometimes I am informative and do not mind educating people about my illness.

Other days I am stigmatized into being frozen with fear and looped in self hatred.

Does this help?

Alii

P.S. I feel those knots in stomach too and have made up elaborate stories to explain away behaviour but for me it comes back to disease. No getting around this mofo disease.

Some people were talking in the break room the other day about mental illness and how all you needed was a good diet, some shopping, and a bath to get over it. I don't usually talk to these people, but I told them that they could never truly understand depression (or any other mental illness for that matter) until they had gone through it. I told them that I take medication for depression and generalized anxiety. I was not ashamed. They should have been ashamed to talk like that without being better informed. I told them my grandfather spent some time in a mental institution, my dad was depressed and committed sucide, I have depression that is (thankfully) in partial remission, and that my 10 year old daughter has it as well. My 7 year old does not. How can you blame that on diet? I also told them about my sister-in-law who has a shell of a life due to her severe manic-depression that causes her to hear voices, attempt sucide, and spend a few months out of a year in the psychiatric hospital. Who would choose to live like that? She is adopted and her birth mother was manic-depressive. No one in her adoptive family (my mother-in-law, father-in-law, and husband) has it. If I have helped them to think differently I've done a small part in breaking the stigma of mental illness. If they think I'm strange now, too bad. I don't the approval of ignorant people.

The word "sucide" is deliberately mispelled because if I spell the word correctly my computer deletes it. Go figure.

I haven't been asked that directly. Although at the dentist's office, tand the orthodontist's office, I was asked about meds and I said Effexor XR, for dysthymia.
I gues it depends... I'm very afraid of talking about it in my work environment. Although I have said it to a few friends there, but I am scared it could ruin my career. So I avoid the subject altogether.
With friends (real ones, who know me well and whom I trust, not simple acquaintances), I don't care. With family, I don't talk about it. They have a way of putting me down already, I don't need to give them extra ammunition against me. They're not particularly interested in learning much of anything anyway, so why would I bother?

I am not sure what my answer would be if I was asked directly about "mental illness". Although, what I tend to do is talk about my depression in the past tense. I am still being treated for dysthymia and anxiety, but I tend to say I had major depression before, which is true I don't have the symptoms at all anymore. And nobody knows what "dysthymia" is, so I don't talk about it much. I just say that I had depression. I feel more comfortable with it being behind me. Not because I am shameful, rather because I don't fear it that way. It's in the past, I'm in control now, worry not, I will not jump out a window. It's a message - I was ill, now I'm fine, have no fear of the mental illness in me. The message is for people I don't know much. My close friends know more details...

I tend to ignore the question of mental illness and the only time I had to admit to depression was for my pre-work physical(all of this kept confidential as the simply state you either pass the physical or you don't. I passed. The Doctor who was giving me the physical said I didn't even look depressed. I only admit depression to those who are close enough to me that I can trust.

Today I had a little hard time at work, because I forgot my Lorazepam and had to go home to get it. Inside of me I just wanted to share with someone how panicked I was at the time, then I realized nobody knows about my Major Depression and OCD and anxiety--so I just asked for an early lunch to go home and get my meds. I think it is a tough question that all of us deal with. It has been unfortunately stigmatized not only by society, but also by very profession which treats it. Take care.

Eat Twinkies, commit murder, claim mental illness, get away with murder; however, don't ask Dan White ... he committed suicide on October 21, 1985.

You did say "diet," didn't you?

you are so cool! my therapist has a phrase that i absolutely love: when i'm complaining about being annoyed by certain people, he'll ask me if it matters (ie: would i choose them to be my friends anyway?) it's good perspective.

i'm also sad to hear about what your family has had to go through, but i am happy that you seem armed with the knowledge to get through it. i'm happy that you are being knowledgeable for your own kids.

i remember being asked that question when getting my driver's license (they rattle that off with a list of about 10 other questions.) i always say, "no" because that's what i'm supposed to say, but i always feel like i am lying. i had to answer that on a job application recently.

they should be worried about those who have a mental illness and aren't aware of it.

with national events, at least PTSD seems more understood these days (ie: i don't get looked at like "funny, you couldn't have been in vietnam.") i think people get scared by what they just don't understand.

I handle it with pride & dignity & to hell with the stupid people. Notice I didn't say ignorant? If someone truly is ignorant, in other words, doesn't know much about it, I try to educate them as much as they wish. No overkill.

I have ADHD, narcolepsy, & depression. If someone is to ask me if I'm mentally ill, I look at them in horror & say "what constitutes mental illness? Who decides what is & isn't?" I don't consider myself mentally ill in the least & will say so.

I consider someone who's bigoted, someone not wanting to learn about the world around them, someone cruel, hateful, & spiteful as mentally ill - not what we are! And I speak it plainly.

When you start discussing the concept of mental illness in this way with others, you'd be surprised at how much others will open to you, telling about problems in their own life & that of their families. We need to let others know & believe for themselves that there should be NO stigma attached to the "emotional" ills so many suffer with today.

I like IsoM's response.

I don't think I've ever been asked that directly and my mood and how the question was asked would determine my answer.

1. I knew you liked me.
2. Run away screaming and waving my arms wildly.
3. I knew you were a brutha when I saw you
4. Did you just ask me if I had a mental illness or did I just hear it in my head?
5. No, I take 12 pills a day because they're pretty.
6. Yes
7. No
8. You tawkin to me?
9. Why, are you wanting to help?
10. I suffer from depression which is controlled by medication and therapy. I and 18,000,000 other Americans and many millions of people all over the world. Here are some 'friends' of mine:

I think you're right. My mind brings up images of people who cannot control themselves and and cannot function in society when I hear 'mentally ill'. However, if we claim that our problems are at least due in part to biochemistry, we have to call ourselves 'ill' or else 'in remission' from the disease (again, if you subscribe to the belief that it is biochemical). I sometimes have to answer something at a doctor's or dentist's office that says 'have you been under psychiatric care?' to which I answer 'yes' because it is important to provide accurate medical information to get the best possible treatment. When I donate blood there is a question that says 'Are you in treatment for a disease that has not been mentioned?' to which I answer 'no' because I know they're concerned only with conditions that would cause an adverse effect on the donor or recipient. Psychiatric illnesses do not pose a threat, nor do the medications I take.

I find that I don't perceive myself as having a mental illness. I'm aware that I do -- if I'm having memory problems due to anxiety, I must.

I find that I am struggling against these symptoms, struggling not to succumb to mental illness -- striving to create a stable, happy life for myself despite the illness.

There are long periods of time -- years -- in which my life is 'uninterrupted' by illness. I go kayaking, fall in love, go to school, work. Then out of the blue -- whoosh -- some worsening of my previous symptoms impacts my life. It can be immensely disheartening.

It is difficult to acknowledge being 'mentally ill,' in part I think because of the social attitude. Isn't it just a 'weakness'? But I think acknowledging the difficulty and persisting despite it are both part of the cure.

I also find that there's a 'seed,' an inner self inside me that remains unchanged, despite the traumatic experiences I'm going through. That -- despite the changes -- there is something that is essentially 'me.'

Does anyone else feel this way? I feel that it may be a clue to the nature of existence -- *pondering the purpose of life*

I think that's wonderful. It's something I am lacking in completely. I have no continuing sense of who I am at all. Although others tell me I'm more constant than I feel.

HI,

Good question. IsoM is right on, I think, in how to deal.

I've never been asked that directly, but I am completely open about it. I want to de-stigmatize menatl illness. It's really a cause for me. I honestly hope that someday I am in a position to reach large numbers of people in order to inform and de-mystify depression and mental illness. On the few occasions I've taken my meds in public and nosy people have innocently asked, "Oh, what are you taking, vitamins?" I repond: "Actually it's Wellbutrin, which is an antidepressant. Want some?" They usually start laughing and then say, "Wow, you don't even seem depressed." It's then an opportunity for me to inform them a little without overloading them with info. In the end, these people walk away with less fear, suspicion and bias.

When I was first diagnosed with bipolar II, I wanted it hidden. I told my friends to never tell anyone and hid it form my agent, my bosses, my co-workers, EVERYONE. I was sure I'd never find a boyfriend again. I thought no one would want to work with me. I am blessed that I work in a business where most of the people are "mentally ill" on some level. I honestly don't know how I'd deal with it if I wasn't.

So, I look at it as an opportunity every time an uninformed person crosses my path.

Sarah

i don't know that i will ever be able to be direct about it. i can't imagine saying to the driver's license person, for example, "yes and this is why."

i wonder if it matters: if you are asked the "mental illness" question, and you answer yes and talk about depression vs. if you answer bipolar (that is, the general population i'm assuming has more knowledge of depression) or ???

not to say that one dx is better/worse/different than another. i'm just waxing philosophical i suppose.

can you imagine trying to explain to a driver's licensing person why you should be allowed to drive even though, according to your "mental illness" you are known to heavily dissociate? (a little comical relief.)
