(What Mentally Ill)
Yes! I am considered a mentally ill inmate. I have what is called a bipolar disorder. I was diagnosed when I was a small boy. It is said that it is inherited, but I don't know of anyone outside of me infected. Growing up was really a challenge - I couldn't remember simple things like a person's name or math problems. I was also in E.H. classes. Even in special classes my learning ability was hampered and it didn't help when other students called me names like retard or a weird-do. Being bipolar is just now being under stood - how to correct it is another thing. Being around inmates that are not bipolar is unhealthy, because they don't understand some of my behavior is contributed to a mental disorder - so they act violent toward us. And we the victims are placed in Ad-Seg - a segregation unit. Which is where I've been for the last "2" years. But I'm not complaining because for now I'm out of harms way.
