    Sorry, Chi... I just go insane when I see that the mentally challenged are called names such as crazy and psycho.

    I was not calling names, at least that was not my intention. I was seriously having a brain fart, hence the question and it's form.

    Hi again, Momma!

    I can definitely see where J_9 is coming from with the way that she feels. I just figured and felt that when you first posted your question, you were looking for the type(s) of tests in order to come to a conclusion as to the level of mental stability that a person might be in. Such a thing is also called a diagnosis.

    I also, truly don't like "labels" for people that can be based on only a person's casual opinion and not some form of facts based upon proven, diagnostic testing as well as the scientific research that would provide a foundation as to why findings were conclusive as they might be.

    Thanks!

    And I don't like slang labels such as crazy and retard (which absolutely inflames me) even if they are based on conclusive findings. There are terms which are acceptable and terms which are not - I don't think these words are acceptable.
