Originally posted by Grampy BobbyHave you ever been inclined to think that someone's mental illness can be an insult to their family and - even - to the rest of humanity?
Thank you. Mental illness is certainly nothing to trifle with or make light of no matter who is suffering from this incapacitating and dreadful affliction.

The post that was quoted here has been removedMy own nearest direct exposure to acute mental illness occurred during the sixteen months of post paralysis recovery convalescence at a premier medical care facility from late December 2010 to early April 2012. Couldn't help but notice the incoherent speech patterns and awkward social behavior of patients in their late forties to mid sixties in common areas each day. Family members and close friends were supportive though not in the least ill at ease or overly condescending. Now and then, though, their tears were apparent in the halls of the ward outside their family member's claustrophobic and antiseptic rooms.
