Re: Would you date someone with a "mental condition"?

I don't think I would date someone who schizophrenia, bi-polar, or someone with a personality disorder.

Maybe I would date a guy w/ OCD or ADD. It depends what form and how severe it is and how much control he has over it.
As an individual diagnosed with generalized anxiety disorder and clinical depression I really do not like the idea of this post. I understand it is your opinion and you should be welcome to that, but please remember we are no different than anyone else. To me this is like starting a post that says would you date someone who is black or white, depending on your race. I do take medication and have control over my disorders-- but please remember that mental illness is now waaaayyyy more accepted than it has been in the past. So do not stereotype us and make it even harder to break out of the negative stigma mental illness has carried with it in the past.
