Rosie says she's treated for depression
29 minutes ago
Rosie O'Donnell says she began being treated for depression after the Columbine school shootings and hangs upside down for up to a half-hour a day to improve her mental state.
When gunmen killed 13 people at Columbine High School in Colorado in 1999, O'Donnell said she felt as if it had happened to her children.
"I couldn't stop crying," she said on an episode taped for ABC's "The View" and due to air Friday. "I stayed in my room. The lights were off. I couldn't get out of bed and that's when I started taking medication."
Anyone concerned about the stigma of taking medication for depression should know that "it saved my life," she said.
When she began taking antidepressants, O'Donnell, 44, said she began yoga and "inversion therapy," where she hangs upside down by a swing for 15 to 30 minutes a day. She demonstrates it on "The View."
O'Donnell said she also has seasonal affective disorder, often called SAD, the wintertime blues that can strike when the days grow short. SAD is characterized by recurrent major depressive episodes during the fall and winter.
She's "instantly happy" on sunny days but feels as if she's being tortured when it's cloudy. She feels the most important thing to do when you're feeling depressed is to get up and move.

So do bats.....
Amen.
Does anyone know if this type of reaction to Columbine is in any way normal? I'm a guy so I'm not sure if women react differently to such events, but I'm not aware of any in my family, at work or in my group of friends that had such an extreme reaction.
I wonder if she suffers from some sort of ultra-heightened maternal instinct - almost like a mother bear with her cubs. It's great and very normal to love children but it seems like she takes it to an obsessive level and it molds her thought processes.
OMG! ROFLMAO! ;^D
Yes, her and the rest of the left wing asshats were not saddened at all by 9/11, it is ok to kill Americans as long as you don't do it with a gun, or if you do use a gun, as the guy in Utah did, you must be a muslim and then it is ok!
LOLOLOLLLLLLOLOL
I'm going to piss in my pants!
Adds a new twist to the term "old bat".
I wouldn't call it normal, but it certainly isn't unknown. After 9/11 Project Liberty was alloted millions to treat the anticipated victims of post-traumatic stress. It turned out that the people most traumatized often had been miles away from the scene and had no direct connection to the victims.
Hangs upside down during the day? Is that not normal for moonbat?
LMFAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Funny...everytime I see Rosie I get depressed and need a xanax.
hahahahahahaha
Rosie...try mixing in a salad now and then.
Appropriate position for a bat.

Donald Trump has to be LOVING this
She's nuts...and ugly..and a lez...and...
