Christmas Carols for the Mentally Disturbed
This one’s been on the news around here lately. Some of you out there have probably heard about it too. Apparently some magazine or another has been publishing a list of Christmas Carols for the Mentally Disturbed.
Naturally, someone got all whiny about it — not an actual patient, but the daughter of one — and now everyone’s talking about it. A lot of people are split over this. Relatives and caregivers of people with mental illnesses are upset. Other people think they’re funny.
Those who know me already know this, but I myself have two of the listed illnesses, plus several unlisted ones.
I think they’re great.

Well, I have a mental illness and I thought it hilarious and unusually witty for 'non-PC' humour. (Oh except, to be pedantic, Multiple Personality Disorder isn't a recognised disease.) Good web site!

Yeah, I was diagnosed with dissociative identity disorder and PTSD, and I think this kind of thing is fine. And enjoyable.. at least to those with a sense of humor. People need to relax. That's what's wrong with the world. That and chewing gum. ~
