People around me who suffer from panic disorder are usually fine one day and suddenly gone the next. I feel bad. He must have had some difficulties during the broadcasts. He could scale back his plans when things got worse.
- “Normal people put up with it and even go to work. Stop talking bad about him.
- “If he had refused to be discharged early, he might not have wanted the matter to be discovered. The journalist should have checked carefully before publishing.
- “They said he suffers from panic and bipolar disorder… do you know how difficult it is for someone who suffers from a mental illness? Don’t talk about it so easily.”
