Gibberings CLXXV - Talk about Phil Mitchell

[Sammy G]

Oooooh i get it; so its sort of lost its charm has it? Im still in the honeymoon phase atm. I think you need to have a 3 month break in order to get the magic back!

You're probably right. Though the sight of that maroon-tinged torrent gushing out of my todger will probably never be beaten.

I once had a few spoonfuls of nutmeg and didn't piss for about 4 days

And when it did finally emerge, what was it like?

 

[Spliff Politics]

Your bladder must have felt horrible for those 4 days! Please elaborate; did you just not need to piss, did it just not come out or were you trying to impress a new man friend how in control of your bladder you are?

Maroon-tinged?! Your like those old junkies who tell the younger generation about the likes of dikes & temaz jellies. All i can do is sit back in awe

Well that's fucking weird. He's had quite a successful life, I wouldn't have guessed at suicide.

You clearly know fuck all about depression

I thought raas was being sarcastic with that comment, a tad worrying if he wasn't.

No sarcasm here, love.

It probably is because I know fuck all about depression, but would have thought being very wealthy, famous and much loved by most of the western world gives you enough reason to battle through the end of your life.

Of course, I haven't looked into the severity of his depression, it's complications and reasons for it. So am not in any position to make any judgements on it. Just, from what I know about Robin - stinking rich, famous and a hot wife - it comes as a little surprising to me that he would resort to suicide at that time in his life.

With raas it could be one or the other. Depends how much port's involved.

lol, so true.

Surely your not that naive?? Surely?!

Sadly he is lol, wouldn't surprise me if he came out with the typical "suicide is the cowards way out" bullshit as well. or be thinking it. is suicide classed as a sin or something?

He was bipolar, so his depression was about as severe as it gets.

One particular characteristic of said condition being that symptoms often manifest regardless of personal circumstances. As is the case with Major Depressive Disorder.

All the wealth and success in the world wouldn't have changed that.

 

[Spliff Politics]

Madness. Rass doesnt come off as completely stupid (feel free to jump in here, feels strange talking about youz like your not here) but some of the comments he makes just seem so outdated! Most the views expressed on this forum are what people would consider as 'progressive' but Rass is the complete opposite.

 

[Allein]

it probably is because I know fuck all about depression,

Just for future reference I can positively confirm your suspicions.

The very facts that this person who you quite rightly point out was rich and successful killed himself in such an unpleasant manner surely indicates that he was genuinely ill....you don't do stuff like that for attention

He was bipolar, so his depression was about as severe as it gets..

I wasn't aware of that, I'd only read he had been ill on and off for many years and had been struggling lately with a particularly bad patch.

I don't know much about him TBH beyond enjoying almost everything he did, RIP

No. Read my post properly.

I'm saying I know fuck all about the severity of his depression and not making judgement. But I still find it surprising, that someone so talented, successful and loved would turn to suicide.


Further investigation (thanks Sammy) suggests his depression was more clinical and supersedes personal circumstances. I did not know this, which is why I stated that I'm in no position to make judgement.

 

[monstanoodle]

He'd stated that he was Bi-Polar in the past yeah. You've only got to look at the in-yer-face acting and magical stand up he did to see him in a manic stage, and I can imagine the lengths of time we didn't hear from him via film etc. was due to feeling like fucking death.

Nobody that hasn't gone through a large stint of mental health problems can ever really understand someone going through it. It'd be fuckin dandy if that weren't so though.
It would save a lot of therapy sessions and a load of 1-on-1 conversations with yer mates about it

That aside = Yo!

Depression, by definition, supersedes personal circumstances. It isn't just feeling sad about something.

& hey monsta!

Yeah, he only came out of a rehab facility last month, didn't he?

The bipolar thing was something he never explicitly admitted during his life. A few interviews with friends of his seem to have let the cat out of the bag, however.

 

[monstanoodle]

'Iyyyerrrrrrr Dan!
You keepin alright mate?

One of the fundamental actions for people with Bi-Polar are manic phases where substance abuse is very common.

Also - Ello Samminshire!

 

[Chatative]

Seems that way...

Disappointingly normal

Nah it was fine I just literally had no desire to use the loo at all. Really odd.

I would only really recommend getting "high" on nutmeg if you're looking for flu-like symptoms though. 8)

 

[monstanoodle]

I'd swap them Bi-Polar for a "Dr. Feel Good" I tells yee!

 

[rickolasnice]

Is it just me or do a lot of celebrities have bipolar?

A lot of comedians do it seems.

My mate has bipolar and he's a funny fuck.
