As someone who deals with a very harsh case of bipolar schizoaffective disorder and has survived more than a dozen OD and suicide attempts, I can relate to him if that is case of what's wrong. I don't want to question, since no one questions me, so I give ICSTOR the benefit of the doubt. It might be my only other reason for me to be sticking around this game hoping for a good outcome.
What I deal with is oven debilitating on the worst of days, where my mood is either hostile, manic, or well, sometimes much worse than depression to where sometimes I don't get out of bed for a few days at a time. What I am saying is, I can relate. I've been to psych ward and I've been through hell, but I'm still here. I hope, if he does have something even minutely related to what I have, that he takes care of himself. If the game gets done, great, if not, that's how it'll be.
