    That would be very disturbing and crazy it someone could actually do that. And speaking of faking mental illnesses, Did Britney Murphey win an award for her part. She did a wonderful job playing her part.

      Although carried out in the 70's Rosenhan (around 73 i think) carried out a study where participants were to fake mental illness and all participants were put into psychiatric hospitals.

          I'm faking mental illness now, I've been diagnosed with more illnesses than I could write down. Every time I want new medication I google the symptoms and tell my carer what to say to my psychiatrist, I have actually got frontal lobe brain damage but I've fooled the top doctors in the country into believing I'm a vegetable. I get high rate DLA, whenever I'm arrested I'm taken to the hospital instead of the police station, I have a free bus pass and can also take a carer on route for free, I get BOGOF on almost everything including festivals and cinema tickets and I'm waiting for a huge payout. I really hope no one finds out who I am. I shouldn't be writing this!

              All mental iillnesses are fake. Look a bit sad and asked to be admitted and you're in there.
              Oh what a day. What a lovely day!
