I married someone who was in the nut house.
-
Well i'm guessing that if they finally got out, that means they are doing well and much better than before. Yes if the person is finally sane (again) or No if i see signs of insanity.
-
yeah if they were managing and in control of their life, it wouldnt even be a factor in my decision.
-
Better to date someone that went in, got help and came out, than someone that needs it but never took that step!
-
Sure, if they got help and where okay in the end
-
yes. and i am.
-
Only if they have a notarized slip stating they are sane.
-
As long as my life is not going to be in danger, I don't see why not!
-
What matters is not so much whether or not they're in the asylum, but why they are and whether I think they truly do need to be in there. If someone had checked themselves into a psychiatric hospital voluntarily, I would understand and have very few qualms about dating them. After all, we all have our troubled times in life. But if they had been in a psychiatric hospital multiple times, against their will (for potentially dangerous things like paranoid delusions, anger issues, schizophrenia, etc.) I'd have more of a problem.
-
Yep ...I would ...I don't think it makes any difference ...lol :-) !
-
I've been in a psychiatric hospital on 3 separate occasions and I would hope that it would make no difference to the person that wants to date me.
-
I would have no problem dating someone who had been in a psychiatric hospital. People are able to control their psychiatric problems with meds nowadays. Many conditions are controlled by meds today: conditions such as hypertension, diabetes, allergies, infections, etc. I see no need to hold any physical or psychiatric condition against anyone who can be a viable friend, soul mate, or lover. None of us are perfect and we all have a need for fulfillment.
-
Hahaha! Ummm, Like did they escape? If they were discharged and are under control with meds or something I don't see how he could be any worse than some men I have dated.
-
Depends...how crazy are they and do they take their meds regularly?
-
Sure if they seemed stable and nice and interesting.
-
Depends on how long ago. I wouldn't date anyone who I didn't think was stable whether they had been in the hospital or not.
-
i've been in the insane asylum, and I'M NOT CRAZY
-
Sure! My mom always wanted me to marry a Doctor! Seriously, if he is taking his medication, why not?
-
Been there done that. Kinda depends on where they are now. If , after first ten minutes, I know all about psychiatric issues, thas gonna be a problem. If the concerns have been resolved, then we can probably develop some kind of relationship.
-
Yes,
-
My question is what's so wrong with someone who's been in a hospital? Just because they've been there it doesn't make them a bad person. You have to judge someone for the person they are, not who they were at a given time in their life.
-
Yes, they've been released, so they'd be no different from any other person.
-
Yes. I have. And though it didnt work out, the reasons had nothing to do with their mental health.
-
Yeah, and I have.
-
Probably unless they were still unstable or in for a serious crime.
-
i think it would all depend on why they were there, if they are at all dangerous no...
-
I never date anyone I work with!:)
-
Well, I am... but he worked there. As far as dating someone who had been institutionalized, that's a tough call. It would totally depend on the individual, the nature of their mental illness, and their current state of stability.
-
I did with two different girls and it didn't really work out. They spent a lot of our relationship in and out of the hospital and the stress on me was horrible. I wish I could say otherwise but unfortunately I have not had good experiences with this situation.
-
maybe it depends if there still mentally unstable.. it would really half to depend if they progressed alot or not
-
If he was open and willing to share why he was there, what the diagnosis was, his level of acceptance of his illness, whether he intends to continue with outpatient care as long as is required (bipolar disorder and recurrent depression usually require a lifetime committment to treatment)... then I would have no problem at all entering the relationship. Being bipolar myself, I know the committment it takes to stay healthy. That being said, if he was unwilling to talk about it, or was in/out of hospitals due to treatment non-compliance, then I'd have to say no.
-
been there, done that -- never again
-
Would you date someone who hasn't? At least their getting help, and yes, I would.
-
probably not..
-
I'm one of those people 3 times over and Bsweet thinks I'm just fine.
-
I would and have been for six months
-
Would I KNOWINGLY date a psychiatric patient, no. Have I probably date a certifiably insane person, probably. But to date a person that has once resided in a psych hospital? My answer would be, no.
-
No thank you. I have dated crazy guys who had not been in that hospital.
-
If they were a nymphomaniac.
-
Yes if they don't try to violate my rights. If they don't try to kill me then I have not problem. If they treat me with dignity then I shall do the same unto them.
-
i suppose. i mean, i've never been to one, but i have been treated by a psychaitrist, and have had to go FOR treatment at a hospital for mental and emotional problems... so i would... otherwise i'd be quite the hypocrite, wouldn't i be?
-
Absolutely!
