The problem with mental illness is that unlike other serious illnesses and disabilities it is not alwyas eveiden from just looking at or even talking to the eprson with the mental illness.
It is very easy to generalise and of course there will be some people who jump on the bandwagon for a time but mental illness whether iits a mild cognitive condition or something even more serious needs to be diagnosed by a Doctor and/or Psychiatrist, who will have the person undergo many tests and visits to them to find out the problem.

I am just grateful that I don't appear to have any mental illness and also I would show kindness and support to those who do.
Often because of peoples generalisations and suspicions, many people with mental illness feel they will be and often do get segregated from society.

No one knows the trauma they go through with this illness. I had a friend who smiled every time he saw you, joked and seemed fine, once alone he cried all the time and was massively depressed feeling full of hopelessness.
That was worry as to his academic future that caused the depression and he near had a massive breakdown.
Mental illness in the main cannot be seen just by looking at someone, that does not mean it is not there and they are suffering massively with it and yes, it would stop people functioning effectively,even to the point of being unable to work most of the time they have it.
