Most people who have a diagnosis of a mental health brain disorder are not criminals unlike TV or the Movies show.
I feel that it is the last stigma.
You can be Gay, have AIDS/HIV now; even at one time having cancer was not discussed.. But dare admit that you on medication for depression or such.
I have lost friendships because of my disclosure of having depression.
The support and understanding of family and friends helps a lot. As we can not just snap out of it without help. It is a disease, a chemical imbalance and a life that has just to many bad events happen to them .
I hope with Owen Wilson’s disclosure that it will help a little more to acceptance and understanding.

I don’t care what treatment it is, if it is for a hangnail, a skin rash, diabetes, parkinson’s disease, cancer, or the common cold. I just want to know WHAT TREATMENTS EXIST, if any. I’m tired of the politicos promising “eventual” treatments, like they have for years. Has anything been developed yet, or are embryos being processed for no real reason?

how satisfied were you with the care that you were given? I am an American and am curious about the quality of healthcare in your country in comparison to my country. Thank you for your time.
