There was a story about a lady who is missing. They showed he pictured and announced she had bipolar disorder and was without her medication. They also mentioned she took medication for other health conditions. My problem is this if a doctor can’t disclose private health conditions with anybody else unless you give your permission, then how does the media get away with broadcasting it to who knows how many people? I would be horrified if the media showed my name and picture and announced I had schiz to everybody even if I was missing. I still haven’t told a lot of people. It’s not recommended that you tell people unless you know them really well either.
I bet her family asked them to broadcast that. I agree though, it’s really invasive. Maybe she behaves very erratically in a way people could perceive as threatening, and the family just wanted to reassure the public that she is sick, not dangerous.
