Saved By the Bell JW Co-Star in People Magazine

See page 2, paragraph 2 for her comment regarding Bible prophecy.

Theocratic Sedition

She was real cute. Stacy Dash replaced her as my token black hottie in suburbia on film. Didnt know she had a JW background.

I love how the article confirms she's dealing with mental illness and when asking her about, after she answers in a way that downplays her sickness, they bring up her being a JW. As if being a JW and mental illness go hand in hand. "So your bipolar?" "No its critical times hard to deal with just like Jehovah said there would be in the last days."

Oh gosh. Sad.

King Solomon

As the article points out, "grandiose speech and delusional behavior are symptoms of severe bipolar disorder." Begs the question: does that kind of thinking encourage development of the condition, or does mental disease lead to the behavior? It sure seems like feeding the brain a dialogue to write the screenplay would be a bad idea, either way....

It is rather more sad when such a person is in such a terrible group like the JW'S. No real help there.

If I'm following the article correctly sounds like she still considers herself a Dub. Just think of all the Dubs who aren't in the public eye and carry on with the same behavior like she does, they welcome them with open arms.

Many of the folks here have written about the odd poineer sister or elder, etc. That level of mental illness makes up a good percentage of the organizaion.
