Britney Spears is suffering from a mental illness, her friends have claimed.

The troubled star - who recently lost custody of sons Sean Preston, two, and 13-month-old Jayden James to ex-husband Kevin Federline - has stunned the world with her recent erratic behaviour with many people claiming her actions are drug related.

However, pals of the 'Gimme More' singer insist she has many psychological issues, including postpartum depression - the medical term for postnatal depression.

One friend told US Weekly magazine: "It's not substance abuse - it's mental!

"Postpartum has always been a problem after giving birth to Sean and Jayden."

In the past year, Britney has seen her second marriage fall apart, and shock the showbiz world with increasingly more bizarre antics, including flashing her genitalia and shaving her head.

Despite her friends saying she is not on drugs, it was recently alleged she let a stranger snort cocaine off her chest during a wild night of partying.

The 25-year-old singer invited guitarist Scott Kohler and ten other revellers back to her Hollywood mansion - just two days after she lost visiting rights to her sons.

He alleged one male member of the party offered Britney cocaine and "joked he wanted to do a line off her chest, and she agreed."

Of Course It's Mental IllnessNov 8th, 2007 - 19:21:02

The girl is having a breakdown and since she has been so used to being in total control of everything and almost everyone in her life - actually listening to someone - who might be saying something that she doesn't want to hear - like Britney - You need Help! - will likely be ignored.

If she is doing drugs - then it is a combination of both.


But you don't get married - have two children - one after the other - break up - and feel fine !

No one can do that and walk away - like their on top of the world.


It's a breakdown - whether drugs are involved or not and she needs help.

Wish her the best.

Well, of course, it is a mental illness. It is really a shame that there is no one to help her. It is a big problem in our society that help for the mentally ill is really hard to obtain unless the person desires it...and it is almost imposssible to get a mentally ill person to even acknowledge that they are ill. Where she not not rich and famous, she would be just another crazy street person. So sad.

There is a lot of help out there for Britney. Her family and associates have encouraged her or taken her to hospitals and clinics for her psychological issues, but the girl won't stay in long enough to get the treatment she needs; somewhere in her mind she believes that she is fine and her behaviour is appropriate; to her everyone else should get help and leave her alone. She is the one who needs to admit to herself that she needs help, go for it and complete it; if not, she may lose her sons, I'm sure she loves, altogether. UNFORTUNATELY HER SONS WILL BE THE ONES WHO SUFFER THE MOST.

Easy way to make moneyFeb 26th, 2008 - 06:30:31

This is a easy way to make money

THIS IS GUARANTEED TO MAKE YOU MONEY!
READING THIS COULD CHANGE YOUR LIFE! I found this on a bulletin board and
decided to try it. A little while back, I was browsing through newsgroups and came across
an article similar to this that said you could make thousands of dollars within weeks with only
an initial investment of $6.00! I was curious, so I kept reading. Anyway, it said that you send
$1.00 to each of the 6 names and addresses stated in the article. You then place your name
and address in the bottom of the list at #6, and post the article in at least 200 newsgroups.
(There are thousands!) You can also e-mail it to some people. No catch, that was it. So after
thinking it over, and talking to a few people first, I thought about trying it. I figured: 'what
have I got to lose except 6 stamps and $6.00, right?' Then I invested the measly $6.00.
Well, GUESS WHAT! ... Within 7 days, I started getting money in the mail! I was shocked?
I figured it would end soon, but the money just kept coming in. In my first week, I made
about $25.00. By the end of the second week I had made a total of over $1,000.00! In the
third week I had over $10,000.00 and it's still growing. This is now my fourth week and I
have made a total of just over $42,000.00 and it's still coming in rapidly. It's certainly worth
$6.00, and 6 stamps, I have spent more than that on the lottery! Let me tell you how this
works and most importantly, why it works... Also, make sure you print a copy of this article
NOW, so you can get the information off of it as you need it. I promise you that if you follow
the directions exactly, that you will start making more money than you thought possible by
doing something so easy! Suggestion: Read this entire message carefully! (print it out or
download it). Follow the simple directions and watch the money come in! It's easy. It's legal.
And, your investment is only $6.00 (plus postage). IMPORTANT: This is not a rip-off; it is
not indecent; it is not illegal; and it is virtually no risk -- it really works! If all of the following
instructions are adhered to, you will receive extraordinary dividends. PLEASE NOTE:
Please follow these directions EXACTLY, and $50,000 or more can be yours in 20 to 60
days. This program remains successful because of the honesty and integrity of the
participants. Please continue its success by carefully adhering to the instructions. You will
now become part of the Mail Order business. In this business your product is not solid and
tangible, it's a service. You are in the business of developing Mailing Lists. Many large
corporations are happy to pay big bucks for quality lists. However, the money made from
the mailing lists is secondary to the income which is made from people like you and me
asking to be included in that list. Here are the 3 easy steps to success: STEP 1: Get 6
separate pieces of paper and write the following on each piece of paper 'PLEASE PUT ME
ON YOUR MAILING LIST.' Now get 6 US $1.00 bills and place ONE inside EACH of
the 6 pieces of paper so the bill will not be seen through the envelope (to prevent thievery).
Next, place one paper in each of the 6 envelopes and seal them. You should now have 6
sealed envelopes, each with a piece of paper stating the above phrase, your name and
address, and a $1.00 bill. What you are doing is creating a service. This is absolutely legal?
You are requesting a legitimate service and you are paying for it! Like most of us I was a
little skeptical and a little worried about the legal aspects of it all. So I checked it out with the
US Post Office (1-800-725-2161) and they confirmed that it is indeed legal! STEP 2: Mail
the 6 envelopes to the following addresses:

1) A. Mosley F. D. R. Station PO Box 7455 New York NY 10150 - 7455 (USA)
2) J. C. Lamb 150-33 108TH AVE. Jamaica NY 11433 (USA)
3) S. J. Conyers 1411 Linden Blvd. APT. 14 J Brooklyn NY 11212 (USA)
4) A. Boyd P.O. Box 204 The Plains Ohio 45780 (USA)

5) M. O’Bryan 1258 W. Inman Rd. Nixa MO 65714 (USA)
6) Jernice Oliveira 100 Green st apt 402 fall River MA 02720

STEP 3 : Now take the #1 name off the list that you see above, move the
other names up (6 becomes 5, 5 becomes 4, etc.) and add YOUR name as number 6 on
the list. Now, post your amended article to at least 200 newsgroups. (I think there are close
to 24,000 groups.) All you need is 200, but remember, the more you post, the more money
you make! This is perfectly legal! If you have any doubts, refer to Title 18 Sec. 1302 &
1241 of the Postal lottery laws. Keep a copy of these steps for yourself and, whenever you
need money, you can use it again, and again. PLEASE REMEMBER that this program
remains successful because of the honesty and integrity of the participants and by their
carefully adhering to the directions. Look at it this way, if you are of integrity, the program
will continue and the money that so many others have received will come your way, too.
NOTE: You may want to retain every name and address sent to you, either on a computer
or hard copy and keep the notes people send you. This VERIFIES that you are truly
providing a service. (Also, it might be a good idea to wrap the $1 bill in dark paper to
reduce the risk of mail theft.) So, as each post is downloaded and the directions carefully
followed, six members will be reimbursed for their participation as a List Developer with one
dollar each. Your name will move up the list geometrically so that when your name reached
the #1 position you will be receiving thousands of dollars in CASH! What an opportunity
for only $6.00 ($1.00 for each of the first six people listed above). Send it now, add your
own name to the list and you're in business! ---DIRECTIONS----FOR HOW TO POST
TO NEWSGROUPS---------- STEP 1: You do not need to retype this letter to do your
own posting. Simply put your cursor at the beginning of this letter, click and hold down your
mouse button. while continuing to hold down the mouse button, drag your cursor to the
