I had a doctor diagnose me as depressed after some court mandated shite. No idea why, because I specifically told him I wasn't when he asked. I don't think I have that emotion. Numbnuts

Part of this can be blamed on white, suburban fricktards who just feel "tired" or some other normal condition,

Don't underestimate how many people claim BS medical conditions to get disability. "Learning disabilities" for their kids, "anxiety" or "nerves" for themselves. And this is certainly not limited to whites. I've asked more than one black lady why she's on disability and I get answers like "for my nerves" and a total inability to give a better explanation than that.

I'm,obsessive but not very complusive. Its not just being clean I can't deal with chaos of any kind. Lists, lists for everything. I know what workout in going to do on march 15th,2018 because I plan that far out its not even practical, if my mom emails me and says in a passing manner...I need to call you to talk about something, I will shut down everything in doing until we talk and i know what it is. I will buy a video game and let it sit there and ask myself but what if I don't like it. What if it sucks and I waste NY time. All night where I could be half way through with it. Because if this I just watch the same shows over and over. One of the hardest things on earth for me to do is just randomly watch something new it takes an act of god

7. Gluten allergy- Bull.shite (except for an EXTREMELY small %) If you feel "bloated" it's because you're eating like shite or you're fat or you have something else wrong (gallbladder, etc.). It isn't some gluten boogey man.


My wife has celiac disease. It ain't funny, nor is it a mere "inconvenience" for her.

List is shite.

What about Hypothyroidism? The symptoms seem more like a blanket diagnosis...


I have this. And the only way you encounter symptoms is if it's untreated. Simple blood test is all that's needed to confirm. It's a quantifiable condition.

Then hers is legit. Did you miss the part where I said "except for an extremely small %" ?

Your wife is unfortunately in the small % of people with celiac disease. It is legit and sucks. I'm talking about the dumbasses who claim to have intolerance to gluten without a proven allergy. It's a marketing gimmick.

Guilty.

You are correct. When my wife was first diagnosed, it really pissed her off at how often people would give her the stink eye when she insisted on knowing the gluten content of food she ordered. She would complain about how the gluten free thing had become a craze and it basically resulted in servers and such treating people who ordered things like that like shite because they assumed they were just being uppity snobs.

Its gotten a lot easier for her nowadays, though, and it may well be because of those same people and the food industry seeing a market for it.

I know a couple of girls who claim to have lupus and it's amazing how closely their symptons resemble opiate withdrawal and only flare up when they run low on pain pills.

In reference to your glutton deal. Here is what happened. About 15-20 years ago they started spraying wheat with roundup to make it blow up right before harvesting increasing the yield per acre dramatically. Right after that we see explosive increase in gutten allergic reactions.

People are reacting to the fricking round-up but once your immune system indentifys a toxin with a product it will react or attack it every time. Hence the damn grass allergy many people have for same reason

ADD/ADHD is a personality trait not a disease, we probably kill so many energetic creative thinkers by putting them on drugs


I agree with this. A lot of people think it is simply procrastination or lack of discipline.

Other countries have been better at managing it in their schools without drug intervention.

Its not a matter of beating your kids into submission. You have to work with them and put them in a position to be successful.

As someone working in the agriculture industry, I can tell you the above quote is complete and utter bullshite. But that's par for the course for Tuthill Tiger.

I can solve complex, tangible problems much better when I don't take meds. I think the fact that my brain can bounce around and go through so many options quickly helps.

Spot on. I was told by a "professional" I had an alcohol addiction when I was in my late teens/early 20's because I occasionally acted a fool when I was drinking. But it was more a case of immaturity and the resulting poor choices I made while under the influence. Growing up took care of that problem.
