    I did not know that "highly unwell" was an accepted medical term.

    Why would someone deviate from their defenses? It is like asking a castle to finally lift up the gate and let the offenders in.

    "A truly sick person"? WTF is that ideation? What fucktard crafted this article? Yer not doing anyone any favors with all that cowpoke-country-doctor nonsense.

    If you want to find him mentally incompetent, follow the DSM-V guidelines, and not this "highly unwell" shit, and all the other shit yer spewing.

    P.S. (Apparently I have to make this disclaimer now. Frederick, my comments are not to you, but to the people in the article you quoted, which I am requoting. So no offense if you took any.)

    You are claiming that you invented that word? Hrmmm....I'm sure that has been used in the past. Just a compound of "fucking and retard."

    The "dotard" is a new one that NK sent over, and I have not figured out that one yet, but I did co-opt it once in a post recently. :)

  5. I think the "do" part might refer to Donald.

  6. I disagree. If they gave a more specific diagnosis, then you would question their ability to have made it at a distance and without one-on-one consultation. They collectively sounded an alarm based on what they all saw. A gathering cloud of sorts. You can ignore it, but why would you? These aren't pundits who will say anything for shits and giggles. These are medical doctors with reputations on the line.

    The Republicans won't say anything negative about Trump for fear of retribution. If Democrats say anything, they will automatically be accused of partisanship. Who is left to sound the alarm when the alarm needs sounding? And does anyone really need medical training to conclude that Trump is not right in the head? But the doctors' voiced concerns lend the matter the needed gravitas.

    Overnight, "highly unwell" is an accepted medical term. Well, unwell, highly unwell, severely unwell.

    Google psychiatrist (or any medical area) and "unwell" you will see it perfectly common language in the field. Not every word spoken has to conform to some professional nomenclature, what would you propose instead when speaking to a broad audience?

    An old girlfriend of mine was a headpeeper and the language they use amongst themselves is a lot more informal sometimes. Dingbat, kook, looney, nut case and variations on severity of are used at dinner parties :)

    Wow. That's very impressive....

    President of "The World Mental Health Coalition".

    Great sound-bite for CNN or MSNBC to drop when referencing her. Instant respect. Instant credibility. I mean President of TWMHC... whoa.

    That is until one does a little due diligence and looks up their 501c3 paperwork via the good ol' IRS website.

    Founded in June of 2019. :rolleyes:

    This as opposed to the American Psychiatric Association which has been around for 175 years.

    A little blurb from their mission statement:

    We formed in opposition to the American Psychiatric Association, which, with the Trump presidency, not only failed to meet the psychiatric profession’s societal responsibility but inhibited individual professionals from doing so.

    yep
    :D
