Wait, wait, wait! IMHO do we even know what we're talking about here? First of all, what is mental Illness? I previously posted my uncle as an example of mental illness. People he knew in business, his mistresses and most who knew him socially would have been shocked that I suggested he was mentally ill. This man was a criminal and I won't even attempt to give examples. He fooled almost everyone who knew him.
Someone with OCD, who likes cleanliness and prefers perfection over sloppiness is considered mentally ill.
Folks who express their opinions loudly or protest an injustice are called "crazy."
People who become addicted to opioids because their doctor prescribed them with unlimited refills, then stopped refilling, who are on the streets trying to deal with addiction are mentally ill.
Depression is a mental illness. Has anyone on in this forum dealt with depression?
PTSD is a mental illness. These people have witnessed unspeakable acts or situations that impacted their lives more than most of us can imagine.
Children who've been pushed around, in and out of foster care who cannot figure out what a normal life is, yeah they're mentally unstable.
If the markets crashed or we lost everything to a crisis or a relative was kidnapped...the list goes on, I think I might tend towards mental illness. I'll probably get a porky on this but be real. No one is exempt from mental illness and it is so easy to criticize when life is good.
