Some of these answers/responses crack me up....Hey, I was a lot like some of you, man up Titus!
I worked at a SNF at one time. It really was depressing the number of young people you'd see. I expected older individuals. Well, some of these clients were on psych-drugs. It made me sad to see a 32 year old guy, whose leg had been crushed, begging for Ativan. He didn't want to rehab, he just wanted to medicate himself. His mom came by once, she was from Louisiana, and she explained how this guy wanted to come out to LA, so she brought him a ticket, one way, to LA. He was on drugs out there, but became hooked on heroin out here. He was a raging lunatic most times without his meds. When medicated, he was a drooling zombie. I asked his mother about this, and she said he was nothing like this growing up. No one really knows what causes mental illness, that is some can bump head, take acid, whatever and wake up normal & some can't. But the experts know it when they see it. It usually takes medication to maintain a semblance of a "normal" person. Typically, the person affected with the disease is in denial and will not follow the therapeutic regimen. We just know about Titus' case cause it's a somewhat famous athlete. There are thousands of guys walking the streets out here doing the same thing.
