I have a relative with only mild mental illness. Yet he has, surprise surprise, no insurance, so it comes and goes in waves and is not at all managed. And if one day I learned he had done something like this... I'd be very sad, but I most definitely would not be stunned. |

But then they talk to her family, neighbors, and people she'd worked with. Almost everyone of them, said she was pleasant, happy, communicative, and all around pleasant. Now I admit I'm been watching the news with one eye, part time, and less than 20% interest. Maybe I misunderstood or misheard, but didn't sound right to me.

Many people with depression are very good at hiding it from the people around them. Thats why some people are shocked while others just saw it coming. I know when i had it i hid it from most people till i started being treated.

Let's be quite clear about this. When the CDC did studies that clearly noted what increases risk and death, then extremist organizations got laws passed to ban all future Federal government research. By the CDC or anyone else. Unfortunately extremists would rather blame the mentally ill rather that identify, treat, and develop new products that could avert this. Only moderates want to address this and similar problems. We currently see how much influence wacko extremists now have over America. Mission Accomplished and the wasted 5000 American servicemen were just one example of extremism. Even those extremists are even calling the current crop of wackos extremists. Maybe we should submit Ted Cruz, et al to diagnostic testing for mental illness. No wonder they want more guns and no research. |
