I think this is one good thing in todays society, we talk about things, and with a lot of mental illnesses it can be just a chemical imbalance which can happen to anyone, I think with the internet and people actually talking about things instead of hiding things we all seem to know that these things happen and everything illness is common around the world and i think we all learn compassion from the knowledge we pick up...
