What are your thoughts?
I’m thinking we still have a long way to go regarding Mental Illness Stigma. Even my own husband laughed when reading it, and he’s seen me go to a mental health hospital three times. My point?
Is it that ingrained in our minds? Even minds that should know better?
It will take generations before some sort of acceptance will happen for mental illness. It is in the nature of humans, to feel fear and some feelings of leeriness , if they know someone is sick

I’ve taken breaks from FB for the same reasons, and I culled down my “friends list.” Totally hear you.

Well, for me this is not funny, because I have been in mental hospitals myself. As long as people make jokes like this, the stigma concerning mental illness is kept in place in my opinion.
