Sorry to post like this, but I didn't see an e-mail to send this message to, and I don't use AIM.

WHY do you keep "Busting my Chops" on PTDC? Every single time that I've posted there, you've seen fit to "correct" me on things in a manner I find insulting.

Have I insulted you in some way that I haven't realized, or do you just not like me for some reason, because it's beginning to irritate me.

If you have a grievance with me personally, I wish you would just e-mail me off the board and cease harrassing me on my posts.

You can reach me at spiritsister_geo@msn.com.

That's not very nice. :) People have a right to correct you, just as you have a right to say incorrect things. You haven't been harassed or badgered.

This, however, borders on harassment. It's not nice to bounce into someone's personal journal to pick a fight with them.

Correction: "People" don't have an automatic "right" to "correct" ANYBODY. One DOES have the right to post correct information, but in a respectful manner, which I feel has not been done in the past few posts I've made.

And if I had any other choice to redress my complaints than to post in a person's journal, I would have chosen that method.

I feel I have been harrased on PTDC by MistressMinako--and you, for that matter, during one post.

How else am I supposed to react to the following previous posts?:

http://community.livejournal.com/playthedamncard/1082097.html#comments

http://community.livejournal.com/playthedamncard/1094461.html

I felt talked-down to and belittled by these replys, and it's serious enough that I e-mailed the moderators of "Play The Damn Card" about these posts. I don't know what actions have been taken, but if it's bothersome enough to complain about it, I WILL stand up for myself.

Again, so as to not further disturb her Journal, e-mail me privately if you wish to discuss this further. I mean no harm, but I will defend myself if I feel I'm been harrased.

Yeah, yeah, sit and spin. While you're at it, grow a thicker hide. No one's called you a slop-rolling idiot, which is better treatment than a lot of people get on the Intertubes.

The second link is especially inoffensive, and the fact that you've been miffed off enough to go behind the mods' skirts seems utterly ridiculous.

This doesn't concern you. Period.

If you have further grievances with me, e-mail me--AWAY from MistressMinako's journal. I do not wish to clutter up her private journal with any more posts.

We have been in contact and are working out our differences between ourselves. If you have a burning desire to further "defend" your online friend, just send me a message. Otherwise, just leave it.

Aren't you just thrilled my journal is unlocked?

First off, sunshine: I don't have it out for you. I'm just bitter by nature : ] I have never replied to you with anything less then the upmost respect - as I assume you're a human being quite like myself, and your personal tastes may not intersect with my own.

I'm sorry if I word things a little strongly for you. However, I can see nothing insulting in my replies, and there is no stylistic shift in my replies to you versus any other person on that Community. Coincidentally, I have not been approached by either of the active moderators, nor any of the other members claiming I am treating you with undue derision. I personally find the Community a bit lax in it's content, and I seek to correct fellow fen, as this fandome circulates a great deal of mis-information.

I would greatly appreciate it if you would refrain from finding something to be pissed off about. It is not my failing if you perceive the way I write as insulting, and it is very rude of you to accuse me unjustly and go running off Hales or Vinja. In the future, if you find a reply of mine unclear, you can contact me via e-mail [ ano.minako@gmail.com ] for a better explanation before my friends take it upon themselves to reply to your comments on my public journal : ]

'Cuase I'm ADHD/Bipolar. Ha! Never thought I'd find a Yugioh fan with ADD/ADHD that I can actually talk/write to. I mean, I knew there must have been some out there, I just didn't know if I'd find them...

So I'm happy to find you :)

While I appriciate the setiment, I'm not sure I understand. ADHD is one of the most prolifically-diagnosed psychological disorders. Are you maybe meaning in terms of age? (I'm 21, by the way)

I'm 13. I went through many different doctors and they all said I had ADHD and the like.

I don't really believe them though. Some say ADD, others say ADHD, a few say Bipolar, and some say I don't have anything at all.

I personally believe the ADHD part. I've never been able to calm down, concentrate or things like that. And I'm taking medications that are meant to treat ADHD, and they've been working, but your right. It is being over-diagnosed. Just because a kid is hyper doesn't mean there ADHD. Especially at a young age. They're just being themselves. Adults and teens on the other hand are a different matter.

As for the bipolar part, I'm more skeptical. The doctor who diagnosed me with Bipolar was also the same doctor that put me on a medication that made me gain 30 pounds in 1 month.

...aren't doctors great?

ADD no longer exists as of the DSM-IV-TR. It's all ADHD now. Wiki has the full story.

There's also a specific set of deliniations for kids. There IS a way to differentiate between "just being a kid", and having a serious attentional disorder. I urge you to read up (and not just on the Internet) if this is an issue close to your heart.

As for the weight gain: That's a side effect. It happens. We don't really know how these medications work, and they work slightly differently in each person, as the brain is very plastic, and can only be physically studied post-mortem (although medical scanning techniques are starting to change that).

The best thing for you as a patient is to keep yourself informed. There is a copy of the DSM in most libraries, and the Internet has made researching particular conditions even easier.

Personally, I think doctors are awesome. Two of my uncles are medical doctors, and I'm currently working on my BA in psychology, with hopes of a PsyD.

I like doctors too, some are nice, but the some I've met are...well...

The doctor that gave me that medicine; I didn't really trust him. I guess he thought that "if a medicine doesn't work, increse it." Cuase he never seemed to lower the dose, and while sometimes I objected, he'd win over.

And that medicine didn't just make me gain weight. It made me tired, slow, unable to concertrate (more than usual), I had no motivation, I was depressed, which eventually lead to be becoming suicidal. Worst part is, I didn't even notice it until I looked in the mirror. I looked horrible. Bags under my eyes, I was pale (I'm usually pretty tan) my hair was messed up (I never combed it-I wasn't motivated enough) and my eyes kinda looked...out of focus, like I wasn't alive.

But to others, like my friends, it was pretty obvious, I just never noticed becuase I never had the motivation to take care of myself. So my doctor saw that I looked horrible but didn't even mention it to me. And I know he saw. How could you miss it? I looked pretty much dead.

I relize now that all doctors are differant. They have differant ways of viewing, treating, and taking care of their patiants. I'm more carful now.

...I'm still trying to lose all that wait actually. I need to go to the gym today...

Actally, I'd like to study psychology some day, too. I guess not to just understand myself, but to understand it just for the pure sake of learnng. I've been studying WWII now, So I'm slowing getting into that, but I've always considered studying psychology an option to me.
