Mental illness is not an excuse to act in certain ways or something that should be looked down upon or ignored. Instead, it is a sign of needing help, understanding, and acceptance. It is not always being in control for those who suffer from mental disorders and having to deal with the aftermath. It is always a work in progress, never perfect, and can be both positive and negative. Above all it is REAL. This is a great breakdown as a reminder for all of us. Remember that you would never blame someone from suffering from the flu as it is out of their control, so too is mental illness.
If you or anyone you know is seeking help from dealing with a mental illness please let them know I'd be happy to help.
