Way too serious and too late and on Xmas day BUT had to say it...

Approximately one in four people have been, are, or will be suffering from some sort of mental illness. It will vary in nature and severity. That means a s**tload more on here than are quite obvious about it have or will have been suffering from some form of mental illness. Part of the nature of this is that unless you are suffering from the precise same form of mental illness, you will never be able to understand the thought processes going on at some point or other with someone who is suffering. That is the nature of the beast. That some may or may not share it on this particular medium is precisely part of that same nature. Of course you won't understand. But you can accept. Those of us who are in the other three in four should be bloody grateful ! That one in four will include a lot of your loved ones, many of whom have never ever talked about it or shown any other symptoms than perhaps saying the occasional out of place comment.

That's it. Just thought that might put some sort of understanding into the head of the appropriately monikered GOBB.
