YARRR!.. U DON'T KNOW NOTHIN BOUT HAVIN THE OLD BIPOLAR... U A CITY BOY OR SOMETHIN??? HA HA HA YARR YARRR!!! ohh shut up! hes just trying to spread a general awareness! fail or not at least he's trying with all the other people that devote there lives to those that put themselves in the centre of everything enough times for it to be considered a mental illness. I struggle with depression but I don't condemn people for trying to help!!! Why should they even bother!! Your no fucking different!
@Dolphidood . I'm not sure who your comment is directed towards... But it's not spreading general awareness if his video is perpetuating misguided stereotypes.
@clairenabear93 Im not sure if your referring to my comment or the guy in the video but I would like to say to both possibilities that I am not trying to spread general awareness and that the guy in the video is making is at least trying to spread awareness. My comment is not specifically directed because as you can see there are a lot of people that have commented below who clearly have no respect for anyone that at least tries to help them. I can relate because I suffer from depression.
@Dolphidood I'm seriously confused as to how you think somebody saying that bipolar people are only "slow" and "fast" is "trying to spread awareness". It's not spreading awareness if his conception is wrong. The people that you're referencing who "clearly have no respect for anyone that at least tries to help them" are putting their opinions out there that his representation of a serious disease is wrong.
@clairenabear93 Ohh god! No its about the fact that he is trying which I have already mentioned and it seems you don't even value that. He is trying to help because he is a mental health educator and yes I can relate to some extent out of having depression and I am sorry its not a large enough extent but that almost proves the point that it Bipolar disorder is a hard concept about the mind to grab and that many can only "try" to scratch the surface.
@Dolphidood The guy in the video is not trying to help anybody, his point was to be funny, not to inform anybody about what being bipolar is actually like. And you think you can relate because you suffer from depression? Only one stage of bipolar disorder is anywhere close to depression. Depression is only clinical some of the time, whereas bipolar disorder is a diagnosable mental condition. If you're going to have a strong opinion of something, at least make it an informed one.
@clairenabear93 Secondly, I have known many people with bipolar and other illnesses to relate and what I can see is a difference; those that have respect and those that don't. I get sick of the exclusiveness that some people like to make up for themselves because perhaps they feel it gives them a character? I see this in contrast with those that get up, try and most importantly respect others.Also judging by the language hurled at this guy (opinion or not) its pretty ungrateful and presumptuous.
@clairenabear93 By the way, its not a disease. "If you're going to have a strong opinion of something, at least make it an informed one." Even if this guy was making it a comedy hit leaving out the full and oddly assumed specific intention of making 'fun of it' then it still isn't worth the anger because there are an awful lot of horrible things that surround us every day and if you can't make positive then you have a slim chance of pushing forward in life whatever your mental condition.
@AwesomexFour What can I say? Thanks for proving my point. I'm totally aware that its a disorder that affects the brain negatively but I don't have to have studied psychology for 11 years to know that its wrong for any one of all shapes to bite the hand that tries to help I suffer from disorders that affect the brain too and all though none of them are bi-polar I still try at the least to respect someone that tries to help. Its the intention that counts and this guy is a mental health educator.
You should be incredibly ashamed of yourself, you do a disservice to the entirety of humanity.

I've met with Joshua a few times for DBSA, he does seem to successful to be a bipolar, like he never gets depressed, he's a performer, we never know completely how he feels. IMO he's too happy to and outgoing to be a bipolar, where are his negative manifestations of bipolar? Does he ever get sad. Yes I know he's had manic episodes. Something doesn't seem right here. There is a missing puzzle piece,
For anyone looking to YouTube comments for advice about mental illness, here's a tip: RUN AWAY FROM THE COMPUTER and talk to a doctor or read a real book or something.
there are many different types of disorders that fall into bipolar disorder......i know because im cyclothemic which is a new disorder not really recognized and it falls into the bipolar disorder. It is more complicated than just fast and slow.....please research what your saying because it is misleading. There are highs and lows and they may last from a few hours to several weeks.
Thank you Joshua! Im not sure why people are being to harsh and judgmental???? For those bipolar people who choose to be a victom of their illness, please stay away from these sites......take a walk......take your meds.....and learn to forgive and love, it is the only way to survive this illness. xo
Just goes to show you that anyone can make a video and post it on youtube and further more ...Is he supposed to be a teacher ? No wonder so many people dont know anything about life.
@lilmizwannabe your ignorance astounds me. If you don't know anything about the disease and the discrepancies in between what he describes and what it actually is, then you just shouldn't be watching this video and commenting.
honestly i agree with what you've said for someone LOOKING at the individual not how the person FEELS!!! Like all of you who have taken to time to post... OBVIOUSLY this SHORT video wasn't to point out how one feels or what they go through IDIOTS!!! It's to point out a SMAAAAALLLLLLL THING that one goes through that lives with this.

I have manic depression, I am NOT bipolar. I am me, I am not in a club. Poeple who work and know me eventually will see it. I take two meds a day-less is more, believe that. I don't dress like a clown, actually people complement my attire. But I do get the accelerated speech patterns when words are moved into other words, and I have rather extreme sleep issues.
My condition is not an excuse-far from it. I work, I love, I live-passionately.
For me being Bipolar is like i'm at war with myself. Sometimes i feel like i'm two different people but both being destructive to the well being of the whole ( me ). The logical or rational me tries to keep the balance between the two.
@Jay3zz hypomania is not a type of bipolar, it's a symptom of. Bipolar types are Bipolar type 1, type 2 and there is a type NOS (not otherwise specified)
@ComicallySanePolitic And to be fair i havent even scratched the surface. Thats why we don't know whether to laugh or cry because its all a lie. People will sit there and say "politician's are all the same", then say "so who are you voting for?" What does it matter if there all the same! I don't know what emotion to display when the world is full of shit, first is anger then sadness after humour the angry humour.
@ComicallySanePolitic If every Soul was honest in this 'society', so called Celebrity's would be imprisoned alongside rapist footballer's, drug smuggling politician's and child molesting religious fanatic's, the judges at the trial would be arrested for taking back hand bribes and the police themselves for abusing the power they have been entrusted with...
@ComicallySanePolitic I think we're the last of the human race that actually care, unlike the sadist pre-programmed think-positive crowd. I wouldn't feel this way unless something was wrong, thats where the 'doctor's' of this society tell you that you're wrong and you're sick and you need help to fit into a careless blamefree full of shit society...
@ComicallySanePolitic I've got a theory that these feelings are due to the direction the 'human' race are heading. Women are completely absorbed in 'material objects' or 'social status' with no care for love or honesty in themselves. Men ( knowing women no longer care) give up moral traits and try to gain the material world...
I'm bi polar, but I hate women 10 times more than this illness. I would take having every single women removed from this planet over having this illness removed from my brain any day. Fuckin bitchs! They are the ones who gave me this illness period.
@jupe323 I can't believe that youtube doesn't monitor their content enough to delete a comment like this, videos like these are perpetuating ignorant stereotypes and worsening stigma. It's the same as somebody making fun of cancer, or a developmentally disabled child, what kind of a person would do that? Society needs to recognize that there are multiple types of discrimination, and the misrepresentation of a serious disease is one of them.
Another reason that some of us have periods where we speak extremely slowly is because we suffer through periods of short term memory loss. Short term memory loss is often the result of ECT or Electro Convulsive Treatments!
I think bipolar is way over diagnosed. True cases exist but there are a lot of piss poor attitudes being labeled as bipolar. I'll bet we have 60% of our employees now running around bragging about their diagnosis....proud of it ! Now they have an excuse to act like jackasses & not get fired.
This guy is like a reformed religious fruitcake. Sometimes i get a glimpse of positivity and actually believe i might have a good day. But theres always something i do or say that just puts me back where i belong, in hell. The funny part is its self-inflicted so i dont know whether to cry or laugh, so i do both.
@Simwillb Lol. I feel like this most of the time, like I want to feel bad for the rest of my life. Is it characteristic of bipolars to laugh and sob at the same time? Sometimes I'll be making gasping noises like I'm laughing and tears are coming out of my eyes (mixed state?) and I can't tell what emotion to place on this phenomenon.
I wish I could smoke weed still, but now it just makes insane. LMAO. I'm so lame. I'd like to see those mpd deniers tell me I'm just a loser.
@ComicallySanePolitic mixed state is when you feel depressed and manic at the same time. Not really so much just if you are crying though. I've gotten like that before... cried and laughed at the time time. It's a misfiring chemical response in the brain. I'm sorry you have to feel like ths, I know how it goes. I have it too. :-( good luck.
maybe if you're an american it's about drug companies getting paid. then again, the entire american health care system is just another big business.
here in canada, i pay about a dollar a day for medication. very affordable.
furthermore, the criteria for diagnosis has to do with mood swings being a consistent hinderance on the normal day-to-day function of a person. but according to you, i shouldn't be allowed to take meds to cope with life because i "just can't get it together?"
When i'm manic my brains going 24/7 it's hard to sleep. I can't stop talking everyone's telling me to shut up. But i feel like i have lots to say. I buy stuff and eat out when i don't really have to i just feel like i have to.
When i' depressed i just wan't people to leave me the hell alone. And get very standoffish.it's a defence mechanism. I feel like people are a threat to my stability.
he read a book and decided to do a video. you have no true knowledge of bipolar disorder unless you are bipolar. i wouldnt do a speech about rebuilding car engines when i know nothing about it hands on. case point, speaking out of ignorance
Okay so that's why my friends think I talk to fast and I feel pike I'm going reg speed and when I'm depressed I don't talk much and people say I look dopey ):
you suck. What it comes down to is somedays we don't give a fuck. On those days I wear what ever I want - 20 minutes later I feel like I fucked up with my choice and want to go home. Why are you telling people your opinion and making it sound gospel. The worst thing about BiPolar is that every one, though suffering the same basic issues, expresses it very differently. Thank the crowd for laughing at your "basic" signs - doesn't count for shit mate. I was down, now I'm angry - thanks for the flip
When I am manic, I feel superior to everyone. I feel that I am perfect and smart and wonderful and can do anything in the worldand can go with little food and sleep but when I am depressive then I feel worthless, helpless, and horrible and ugly.
this guys a comedian.. what a funny way to describe it! when im manic, i talk really slow and sometimes i slur.. which is weird i guess.. but i think its cuz i'v got so much going through my head the words dont come out? lol
I have lots to say now, but I have taken my pills...so I am too tired but being a rapid cycling medication resistant bipolar, there must be a horizon or sunset or a cave that Yoda is in somewhere with a Ancient Chinese Secret remedy to Bipolar ....maybe.
If you have not, how can you comment on something you know nothing about? People like you are synical and unjustified or let me see, how about CLUELESS!Stay in school you just might learn something besides how worthles your own thoughts are.
judgmental... and stereotypical. i have bipolar. and uhm excuse me but i have a fine fashion sense. and im not sure if you can really tell just by judging them on a couple seconds if they are bipolar or not. damn you... blah
I am Bipolar, and I talk fast only while in mania sometimes, but NO WAY do I wear mix-matched clothes. You should spend quality time with Bipolar people from different backgrounds and cultures. Your lil speech was probably put together at the last minute, you went with what you gathered from google. You're totally lame!!!
i live with psychotic depression not bipolar but i think tis person speak abot psych illness in a wy that is ...... not good i eat psychotropics as others do and i dont like the word gives away
How can someone without the knowledge of the insight of practical experience you come off like a know it all. And will most likely lead to resistance to treatment for the patient. They always blame the patient for resistance to treatment... But I am a patient... resistance to treatment was broken for me by a talented clinical therapist... And now I have commenced the journey to recovery... and all you 'victims' of bipolar.. fuck you! You make the disorder harder to diagnose..boy who cried wolf!

I have been told that I might have bipolar disease then I looked it up and read some of the symptoms and realized everyone in the world must be bipolar. What a crock! we all get mood swings some more frequent than others but it's not because of bipolar(ism) it's LIFE!
@sassyesta did u even hear wat he said?? He sed u can tell wen someones manic if theyre dressed that way and have bipolar disorder. Do some research gah please shut the fuck up if ur gonna be ignorant
@sassyesta different people react differently to bi polar when i was going through a manic stage i did many of these things he is only stating what people with bipolar do when they are manic (hi)
@sassyesta Bipolar II talks fast. (b/c they are more manic) but i agree with the stupid outfits.....thats an unjust steretype. im bipolar and i think i have good taste in clothing
@blueblahbox True, the only people I see wearing bright coloured clothes, are sheeple. I myself, where quite plain, naturally coloured clothes, manic or not.
@blueblahbox no.... Bipolar II does not talk fast because they are more manic. Talking fast and pressured speech are symptoms of mania. Bipolar type 1 and type NOS also have pressured and fast speech during a manic or hypomanic phase.
@blueblahbox me too. i have good taste in clothing so i dont know wear he gets his information from. he is wrong about what he saying. i got so mad wen he said that. is like he was mimicking bipolar people
i mean how the fuck can u say someone has a chemical imbalance just by asking them stupid fucking questions like do u feel sad sometimes? and the worst symptom of all - hav u ever felt happy for no reason!!! holy shit wudnt want that! and what does chemical imbalance even mean? someone please explain this to me. . .
I'm Schizophrenic and when someone says there's a chemical imbalance in the brain, it's an imbalance of certain chemicals like seratonin and dopamine that make Bipolar and Schizophrenic patients have their symptoms.
wow this is really scientific, if someone wears crazy clothes and talks really fast then they're bipolar, yes very reliable, well i guess ill go and buy an orange suit and i can b bipolar too! it amazes me that so many people r 'diagnosed' as bipolar yet they cant even give you a fucking blood test?
Spiritual Emergencies! Everyone is Bi-Polar! Sweet! Breaking out of the shell takes practice and there is nothing we can do about it but just be with it and love it. There is no escape. Surrender
U will not find help here, chances are someone will tell u something thats not true. Go to a doctor and talk about your concerns and the symptoms you have been having.
Right i had the same has well everytime you wanna talk it comes out wrong and you kinda jump at people when ur saying it or go really fast so they have no idea what your saying.
Bipolar is bullshit and has little backing, maybe you are just normal and not a robot like most people? Ever considered that sadness and anger are normal human emotions and all that medicine does is turn you into a "neutral" robot? If you want to go and be prescribed BS like Lexapro or Zoloft be my guest but you are just bringing humanity closer to it's demise and becoming an average brainwashed idiot, Happiness doesn't come in a bottle... medicine full of sedatives do...
what a fuk wit...man if normal ppl out there spent half a day with this illness no fuk that..if they spent 5 mts with illness they would pray for death...no one understands bipolar untill u have it..this illness destroyed my life...i lost everything cuz of it..and im still loosin..life just doesnt work with this illness it just keeps pounding at u untill u cant take it any more..it kills ur spirit ur hope and ur heart it leaves u fkn exausted..its takes ur life away while ur alive..
I know what you mean. I have lost numerous jobs and people in my life due to this illness. I feel alienated and misunderstood by the majority of people I come in contact with.
@littlemissinnocen100 I hear you, I'm just hanging on by a thread some days, But keep fighting to stay around a little longer, something good has got to be around the corner. at least, that's what i tell myself.
I empathize. There is more than one way to lose the lottery of birth. Some people are born with a healthy mind in a Calcutta ghetto, and some are born with some mental affliction in a mansion in Vermont. Someone of healthy mind would ask 'who's worse off'? These people will probably never understand, but even if they did, it wouldn't help.
I don't know about that man, I have type 1 bipolar and was diagnosed about 4 years ago, my life is amazing and the highs gives me motivation and the lows give me insight about new things that i would have otherwise not have thought about or done. Bipolar is a gift as much as it is a curse, and once you learn to control your gift, it becomes less a curse.
@littlemissinnocen100 You have just desribed bipolar in a very primal way. It is just like that. There is not enough media coverage of this debiliitating condion for sufferers from lower income families. They are crying out for it.
@littlemissinnocen100 Yeah it fucked mine up but I can see where the guy is coming from, you need to staying well plan, plan your day, keep a mood diary, check out CBT therapy, go to the gym or exercise everyday, watch movies, socialise as well
@littlemissinnocen100 5 minutes isnt enough bro. i been depressed for 3 days before. i think 1 day is good. they can feel the full effect that way. talk about pray for death thats just depression.
Actually, he describes stuff well. That's how I see the difference between manic and depressive in others, and I'm actually bipolar. Weird that you're offended and the people you say should be offended are not.
YOU cant tell if someone is bipolar by the color of their clothing. Yes, people sometimes express how they feel through their clothing but it would be nearly impossible to tell if someone is bipolar by that.
wow this guys know nothing of what hes talking about , all this guy is doing is making fun of the mental ill and trying to get the croud to laugh with him. What a jerk off
This guy knows absolutly nothing about bipolar people. First he described a clown. Second, my sister who is not bipolar talks extemely fast....that does not place her in the catagory
The fast he's talking about is when someone is manic...they can't stop talking and the words come out very very fast. It's differs from someone who merely talks fast.

I don't dress like a clown, actually people complement my attire. But I do get the accelerated speech patterns when words are moved into other words, and I have rather extreme sleep issues.
My condition is not an excuse-far from it. I work, I love, I live-passionately.

@ComicallySanePolitic And to be fair i havent even scratched the surface. Thats why we don't know whether to laugh or cry because its all a lie. People will sit there and say "politician's are all the same", then say "so who are you voting for?" What does it matter if there all the same! I don't know what emotion to display when the world is full of shit, first is anger then sadness after humour the angry humour.

@ComicallySanePolitic I've got a theory that these feelings are due to the direction the 'human' race are heading.

@Simwillb Lol. I feel like this most of the time, like I want to feel bad for the rest of my life. Is it characteristic of bipolars to laugh and sob at the same time? Sometimes I'll be making gasping noises like I'm laughing and tears are coming out of my eyes (mixed state?) and I can't tell what emotion to place on this phenomenon.
I wish I could smoke weed still, but now it just makes insane. LMAO. I'm so lame. I'd like to see those mpd deniers tell me I'm just a loser.
ComicallySanePolitic 1 year ago
@ComicallySanePolitic mixed state is when you feel depressed and manic at the same time. Not really so much just if you are crying though. I've gotten like that before... cried and laughed at the time time. It's a misfiring chemical response in the brain. I'm sorry you have to feel like ths, I know how it goes. I have it too. :-( good luck.

sure, people are wrongly diagnosed. and yes, people probably make the claim that they are bipolar to avoid accountability for their actions...
but the fact that you deny bipolar disorder even exists is probably due to your MASSIVE ignorance.
maybe you will have kids one day and they will have it and you will be forced to live with it and accept it as being real.
until then, please stop polluting peoples' minds with your blatantly misinformed and inconsiderate comments.

maybe if you're an american it's about drug companies getting paid. then again, the entire american health care system is just another big business.
here in canada, i pay about a dollar a day for medication. very affordable.
furthermore, the criteria for diagnosis has to do with mood swings being a consistent hinderance on the normal day-to-day function of a person. but according to you, i shouldn't be allowed to take meds to cope with life because i "just can't get it together?"

When i'm manic my brains going 24/7 it's hard to sleep. I can't stop talking everyone's telling me to shut up. But i feel like i have lots to say. I buy stuff and eat out when i don't really have to i just feel like i have to.
When i' depressed i just wan't people to leave me the hell alone. And get very standoffish.it's a defence mechanism. I feel like people are a threat to my stability.
I take medication but it wears off too soon.
