It's been a tough road for them with their sporting teams being stuck in reverse and apparently it's affecting them deeply. Sadly, their frustrations appear to be causing obesity and mental illness.

We all know they are one of the fattest states in the Union. It's truly a shame but they are also one of the states with the highest rates of mental illness.

Mental illness is no laughing matter, I for one will take pity of them now. This sure does explain a lot of their behavior on this board though.

Arkies...If I can ever do anything for you, let me know. I'm here for you. That's what friends are for. You'll get no more grief from me. I don't want to add to your issues.

· Among the states, the highest rate of any mental illness in adults aged 18 or older, occurred in Rhode Island (24.2-percent) while the lowest rate occurred in Maryland (16.7 percent).
· Nationally, 10.4 million adults aged 18 or older (4.6-percent of that population), experienced a SMI in the past year. SMI rates ranged from 3.5-percent in Hawaii to 7.2-percent in Rhode Island.
· Arkansas, Idaho, Rhode Island, Utah, and West Virginia had the highest rates for both SMI and any mental illness.

you're so sweet- but say i had mental illness, it wouldn't be depression it would be more psycho or sociopathic type stuff. i'll just snap and go on some type of murder spree.

Good find....just might be the explanation for the "usual" troll/rant/smartass hog posters we all know who they are, that regularly infest the site...lol. Most of the rest are OK though !
I'll admit, given the medical documentation you provided...I'm feeling a little sorry for them too !

I didn't know you shared in my sympathies for them. I've come a long way now that I know about their challenges in their daily lives. Obese and mentally ill has to be a tough burden for them.

I'm learning to accept you guys despite your faults and challenges. I didn't know you guys were facing such an uphill battle.

Interesting theory, however, I think they suck because they are obese and mentally ill. Guess it's one of those chicken or the egg mysteries that we'll never really know.
