Fergus was a brilliant character (everyone was very well-written on this show) and it tore my heart out whne he died. Sweet tribute.

@Schizokitty13 If you haven't found it yet search for Campbell's Takin Over. It's been uploaded under a different name and all the parts have sound.

Your video was very moving yet sad, becuase I am a diagnosed Schizophrenic. I really want to see this entire series. The parts Ive seen looked really good.

I can only imagine what it must be like for those who're close to someone with an illness like schizophrenia. Thank you for the comment and I hope your friend will see brighter days

a close friend of mine is schizophrenic, he also suffered from multiple personalities, (his other personality is very unpleasant to say the least) I can tell you the best thing you can do for someone suffering with that kind of mental illness, aside from getting them to a mental hospital where they can recaive professional help, is be as supportive as you can. For the record I'm also bi-polar and have been diagnosed with clinic depression.

I can say no more about the illness because I've never had to deal with it first hand. All I know is what I've read and I'm sadened by the outcome of many people who have it. More should be done to discover the cause of schizophrenia and if there's a definate treatment with no adverse side effects. This goes for Bipolar disorder too. Thanks again :)

[ShaylahShmoo]

Yes. You're right, at least there is some realisation with Bipolar. Unfortunately with schizophrenia it's a degenerative illness and there is no hope for recovery or at the least remmission.

I was diagnosed with bi-polar aged 19, my mum has it also and my aunty commited suicide and was a paranoid schizophrenic. schizophrenia is a very cruel illness indeed because there are less periods of stabilty than that of bi-polar, also schizophrenics cannot percieve relaity so do not realise they are ill when atchually they are acutely so and so stop med regimes etc, and are hospitalised repeatidly-believe me i know.when your manic you do atchually sometimes acknoweldge but with physchosis..

It's a cruel illness. Agreed, bipolar is still unforgiving. Thanks for your comments, Joejoe
