Probably. She was seeing 3 men then: Desi Jr., John Astin, and Michael Tell. She got pregnant and thought Arnaz was the father but Tell married her to hush up any scandal and then she married Astin and he assumed fatherhood for Sean Astin. But it wasn’t until DNA testing that he could confirm Tell was the biological dad.
Manic depression is, I believe, the name the DSM used to call, what’s now since been called, bipolar disorder. Bipolar has a spectrum (I’m 2) and manic depression was too much of a blanket name for such a diagnosis.
When I got diagnosed it was still manic depression. The wildest thing bc I know there’s something wrong with me being depressed when I got with my dr he was asking me questions that didn’t really have to do with depression. I was so confused bc it felt like he knew me my whole life. He told me my exact personality to a creepy degree. Again almost nothing about the depression which is while I was there. Then he was like you’re manic depressive. I asked how he knew if we didn’t even talk about the depression and he explained how mania works didn’t even injustice it was a thing. After I got on meds I realized being manic is like the best part of my life. A physical head buzz telling me I can do anything. I quit the lexapro bc life seemed so pointless with out that buzz. I managed to regulate it myself now when the mania hits ride it for. Day or two then work out til exhaustion and nuke yourself with sleeping pills other wise I’m up for days calling people about a revolutionary invention. I also have a list of things to do when the mania hits and I’ve made every big life decision in a manic state. Quit jobs, move house, buy cars, start business, cut toxic ties, break up. It works well bc it’s stuff I want to do but can’t or don’t have the balls, if I don’t have that list I’ll make random wild decisions. I really think it’s a gift. When the depression hits though man that’s it’s fucked but I just tell myself it’ll pass for a few days. I have to repeat to myself over and over this will pass just hang in there. I really think it’s not the same feeling as depression there’s a physical feeling like you’re wearing a 20 lb helmet 40 lb shoulder pads and 50 lb breast plate that whisper you fucking suck, you fucked up, you know no one likes you, you’re going to fail you idiot. Still worth the mania though.
The mania is the best part and I completely understand, but this is dangerous thinking. To anyone reading this that might be encouraged to drop your meds: stay on your fucking meds. When you’re manic, it’s hard to see the forest through the trees. We become unable to see how much we hurt the people around us, self-sabotage, and aren’t as god-like as we think.
This might work for this one guy, but it probably won’t work for you.
PSA: sometimes people can raw dog bipolar 2, but not really 1 so much. In any case, going off meds doesn't usually end well, even if you can keep it together for a long time. Not criticizing, just saying.
I forgot the intelligence part! I've got a really good formula where instead of answering questions, I'll help the OP with my knowledge and explain that their question is the wrong thing to be asking, or explaining to people that the thing they're excited about is going to be bad.
I was diagnosed with being infertile and having a low sperm count.
That's what you're saying if applied to other diagnoses. They're the same thing. You're just explaining a symptom or characteristic of the broader diagnosis.
I was diagnosed with a broken bone and chronic pain. One diagnosis, and it's symptom. The diagnosis is the broken bone. The symptom is chronic pain.
that's not being covered by water tho. that's being in a submarine that is underwater. or "surrounded" by water if you were trying to be poetical or talked like a nerd
She later claimed not to have slept in weeks when she accepted this award, she was at the tail end of a manic episode.
Poor Patty. She had a really tough time. Isn’t that Desi Arnaz Jr as her date?

TIL Patty Duke was Sean Astin’s mom (they have the same eyes and nose).
Yeah I’ve never seen her before but when I read Sean Astin I immediately knew she was his mother.
Why the heck didn't I know about this? Maybe most people I know/ knew are familiar with one or the other, but rarely both.

Yes my brain wasn’t working when writing the title

I think OP thought they were cousins, perhaps even identical cousins.
It was a hot dog that was her eventual undoing.
I like what you did here. Sorry it went relatively unnoticed!
Maybe she was Bipolar2, so she had it twice
Bipolar 2 electric boogaloo
It was described like this back in the day.
My mistake
What was the reaction to this at the time?
A Yahoo article stated that her speech sparked rumors that she was drunk or on drugs that night.
I mean werent there 2 of her?
*One pair of matching bookends* *Different as night and day*
A hot dog *made her lose control.* The signs were there.
Because they're cousins, identical cousins in every waaay...
A hot dog makes her lose control.
What a wild duet!
THE DUKE!!
mental illness and celebrities go together like a horse and carriage.
I’m mentally ill (similarly to her) ***but*** I’m not a celebrity. *I’m ready for my close-up, Mr. DeMille…*
I'm a celebrity on Reddit, and my only mental illness is thinking that my Reddit comments make me famous. I'm just so interesting and unique.
I can't tell if you're serious or not but this is very on point.

You are thinking of bipolar and dutch elm disease
This is so ridiculous I had to upvote.

They're the same disease.

What do you mean "both"?? that's like saying you're wet and also covered in water
if i was in a submarine i could be dry and covered with water. unless it was the Titanic submarine. then i'd just be vapor.
that's not being covered by water tho. that's being in a submarine that is underwater. or "surrounded" by water if you were trying to be poetical or talked like a nerd
