I thought this was excellent. However, I don't think Scotty liked being on the case too much it might've stirred up some feelings about elisa (the crazy people.) Any ways, good ep, I liked the storyline, it's a new one for cold case.
P.S. Scotty just wants to get laid

corect me if im wrong i thought Manic Depree wssion makes you extreamly sad and sometimes suicidal, I didnt think it would make you extreamly happy and perky or even look like you happy,
i have been diagonsed with Chronic Depression and im never that happy,
i mean you have good days but your never super happy, she just seemed a bit too perky but then again i could be wrong.

KathrynFan: manic depression is when your HIGHS are very high and your LOWS are very low. In other words, it's Chronic depression but with occasional "manic" episodes in which you feel you can conquer the world--and even hallucinate sometimes--and that's the point Bettie was in. It's pretty awful because bipolars can really lose touch with reality, getting involved in horrible accidents because they just don't think they'll be hurt (really well portrayed in the fire scene). And then when they're in the LOWS they get suicidal...

DF,
This may be a stupid question but I admit I don't understand this subject. What has to happen to make a person physically unable to function with this or any other type of mental illness

Naj... well, it depends (not an easy question  ). Usually conditions like schizophrenia and bipolar disorder are hard to live with because they go through "psychotic episodes"--moments in which they don't think right, they're lost in hallucinations on delirious ideas that they have no control over. They really do lose touch with reality. But once they snap out of these episodes or take medication, they're ok, and can function almost normally (bipolars more than schizophreniacs though). As for other mental conditions... well, it's REALLY hard to function well if you're very anxious or very depressed, mostly because those feelings take up so much of your mind you don't really have strength to concentrate on anything else. PLus they come with a lot of other physical symptoms (like panic attacks, for example) which can be really almost impossible to live with. Most mood disorders (depression and anxiety and panic disorder and obsessive-compulsive and stuff) are treatable though. They respond well to drugs. EXCEPT when there's an underlying personality disorder. But those are even harder to explain. I'll try if you want me to though (PM?) |

Hi DF,
I realize that was a loaded question. So it's really not a matter of chemical balance in all cases. I'm thinking of the woman that was on all those drugs and killed her children by drowning them and her husband was never held responsibile for anything. Oh what her name....dark brown hair and glasses....

To return to the Bipolar discussion, manic episodes do not mean the person is (necessarily) happy; it refers more to the energy level. It can be very scary to be manic because you feel like you can't stop or slow down. You're not "functioning" (although you often think you are) because you're judgement is off: you might start 10 different projects at once, go shopping (I mean, spending money you don't have shopping), not sleep, and/or be reckless in other ways.

Well, yeah, regarding bipolar disorders, being manic doesn't necessarily mean you're happy. Though most manics are. Very few of them actually realize they're in trouble (at least the ones I've seen), they're even disappointed when they begin treatment. Mostly it's their families that bring them in. THEY get scared crapless (sorry, language).
Naj--WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT???
Anyway, yeah, most psychiatric conditions are chemical imbalances--some more than others. Schizophrenia and bipolar disorder are both very "chemical", thus they respond well to treatment, whereas depression and anxiety can be more "reactive" to external stress, so they respond to both psychotherapy AND drugs. I wasn't too clear in my last post cuz I wasn't sure exactly what you were asking. I think I understand better now. What fails in anxiety, depression, obsessive-compulsive, panic attacks and such is mostly serotonin. What fails in schizophrenia is mostly dopamine (not sure about that one--I should research some). And I'm really not sure about bipolar disorder.
Personality disorders (psychopaths) are an entirely different thing. They don't have any chemical imbalances. They just "grew up" with a different set of morals--or no morals at all. It's not an illness, and it can't be changed. So there's no real treatment for them.

I thought it was post meno.. whatever they get after having children??  |

I know a2z. I think it's the curse of the Sunday night shows. Between the Super Bowl, Grammys and the Olympics this year, it's impossible to get a new episode during February. |

I just rewatched this episode on tv and I had completely forgotten how sad it is. For some reason i had this episode categorized as a bland one but now I see that it was so emotional and full of great music. And it had me almost in tears at the end... It is funny to see what people's reactions to this episode were. I didn't read through all the posts though. But the whole fuss about "Josie chippy"/Scotty just made me laugh  . I toally agree that they did an awful job writing her out of the show...and you are left with a bad taste in your mouth because it was in some way Scotty's fault (well it was all his fault wasn't it?) she chose to leave. |
