Friday, November 7, 2008Living with a Mental Illness
If we believe what we see on TV and in the movies, persons with a mental illness are violent, irrational, unpredictable people who can't function in "normal" society. But the truth is those who are living day to day with mental illness are our mothers, husbands, co-workers, daughters, teachers, and even us. Mental illness affects every one of us every day, whether we are dealing with an illness personally or it is someone we know casually or someone in our own home. So, what are the challenges and frustrations of living with a mental illness? What can you do to help your family member or friend cope? And how does it affect everyone else? Join us this Friday with your questions and comments when we discuss living with a mental illness.
