Ten things a bipolar should not say on a busy bus

by Ouch Team

11th February 2008

This top ten was submitted by Carrie Beckwith, and sent to us on a night when she couldn't sleep. Hope you eventually got some shut-eye, Carrie - and thanks for the list!
Top Ten
  1. "Damn, I forgot to take my antipsychotics."

  2. "Did you say something? Oh sorry, it must have been the voices."

  3. "Hi, I'm Jesus."

  4. "My doctor said I shouldn't worry too much about the homicidal thoughts I'm having."

  5. "Aliens put a tape recorder in my head."

  6. "What day is it today? Oops, I was supposed to be back in hospital."

  7. "I'm going to meet my girlfriend. I met her in psychiatric out-patients."

  8. "It's the Lithium that makes me shake."

  9. "I've had ECT. If I touch you, I can give you an electric shock. Wanna try?"

  10. "Sorry, you can't have that seat. Can't you see that Elvis is sitting there?"
