Mayo Clinic: Jackson Has Bipolar Depression

Doctors say Congressman Jesse Jackson Jr. is under treatment for bipolar disorder.

A release Monday from the Mayo Clinic states that the Democrat underwent an extensive evaluation and is responding well to treatment for the disorder at the facility in Rochester, Minn. The release says Jackson is regaining his strength.

Jackson spokesman Frank Watkins declined to comment.

The clinic says that Bipolar II disorder is a treatable condition that affects parts of the brain controlling emotion, thought and drive and is likely caused by a complex set of genetic and environmental factors.

Jackson has been away from the public eye since June 10 when family members said he collapsed at their Washington home. He’s been on an extended leave of absence from Congress.

If you are bipolar enough to be in a hospital for weeks, you have been on a wild ride and I guarantee you’ve taken a lot of loved ones on it with you.

I’ve heard the man. I don’t agree with practically anything he says, but I hope and pray he finds a healing. Because it’s a horrid illness. Maybe this is why we haven’t heard much from his dad lately.

offering money for a senate seat can lead to bipolar disorder....but it clears up quickly as soon as the pardon comes down

The doctor wouldn’t have released this information if Jackass didn’t want it public.

If Jesse Jackson Jr. is looking for sympathy, he can find it in the dictionary between sh!t and syphilis.

Maybe he was the one who did the dirty work of offing the Kennedy wife that recently was found hung in NY. A good dose of psychtropic drugs and he’s off the hook - oops.

Sounds completely truthful yet completely incomplete. Bipolar disorder is frequently cited as the causative pathology for the Colombian Marching Disease.

I wonder if the underlying cause of the "Bipolar Disorder" is Tertiary Syphilis, antibiotic resistant gonorrhea, AIDS or all three at once?

Jesse Jackson Jr. could be clinically insane and confined in a straitjacket, but he would still get 115 percent of the vote in his IL district. The dead vote will always put him over the top every time.

I used to be bi-polar before I decided on Antarctica. It’s warmer there.

Thank you, thank you folks, I’ll be here all week. Try the kosher pork chops at the buffet.
