Hey, PR people, here's a news flash: Most regular folks, myself included, do not care who Jenifer Aniston is dating. Truth be told, we don't care if Jenifer Aniston lives the rest of her days as a lonely celibate. We also don't care who was just named what by whom, or which actress is in rehab or what actor went on a drunken tirade.
Usually I ignore these things, even though they are shoved down my throat each time I log on to my computer. But just the other day an item did snag my attention, and was later reinforced on the TV news As If It Matters: Catherine-Zeta Jones, an actress I have never seen perform but who I know is married to Michael Douglas, recently revealed that she "spent time in a mental health facility for an undisclosed problem." Turns out she suffers from bipolar disorder, which is indeed a very serious disorder as disorders go, yet she was cured in just five days. I know several people who have battled that disease for a lifetime, but in less than a week, she's all better!
The next time I'm depressed, I'm going straight to Hollywood.

She is very pretty, but unfortunately, she is not cured. You learn to live with this disorder just like alcoholics, you are never cured from alcoholism, and you learn to deal with it for the rest of your life (stop drinking college kids). However, the drug companies always have an easy "perceived" fix. I call the pharmaceutical companies, drug dealers, but they don't go to jail...shame.
