Probably because it's easier than saying:

"Oh my goodness! Quick! His tongue has slipped back down his throat, blocking his airway!"

It's just one of those things, I guess...

In Sweden if you have ellepsis, you can't have a driver license. It isn't the same in US?

Some people only have sezirues as small kid, I know someone who stopped having seizures when she was 6 year old. She is 18 now...

Would probably depend on the state; they each have their own rules about who's eligible for a driver's license, and their own procedures for taking licenses away for medical reasons.

That seems to be what happened to me... the last time I had any kind of seizure, I was 11... that was a decade ago.

That's multiple personality disorder you're talking about.

Isn't schizophrenia the same thing as MPD?

Nope. Schizophrenia can just be two different behaviours of someone. Multiple personality disorder is the classic stereotype of schizophrenia, but involves completely different personalities.

Aha. Thanks for the explanation.
Bi-polar disorder is related to those 2 somehow, IIRC, right?

Bipolar is where there are two wildly different behaviours, one depressed, and the other wildly eccentric.

The eccentricity usually disguises the depressed feelings which are usually never seen by most people.

Thanks again for the explanation.
I find such things absolutely fascinating... but I normally have a memory like a seive.

What I have never understood is what the difference between being Maincally Depressive and Bipolar is. Anyone care to explain?

Manic depression is the term usually used to describe people who find release from their feelings by mutilating themselves

Yeah, manic depression and being bipolar are two really different things. I just remember when you're bipolar you can go from being really uppity, to depressing lows. I remember seeing it on ER..I think in health classes.

Manic depression I wasn't to sure of but now I am. I thought it would be something like that..to mutilate yourself to take out the way you feel on yourself.
