    Going through a disorder of my own not knowing I was mentally ill since a child , we need to spread that mental illness is not just a flu to this society & economy ,it's a fever that can be helped with if only people understood its the reason behind every suicide in the past few years.Raising awareness can lessen deaths& depression,no matter how severe your case may be. Raise awareness for mental illness & raise positivity amongst society,we can all do this together! Spread the word, and see how this economy grows.We're in this recession because of depression.

    The second paragraph of the statement is very true and very powerful. Mental illness (and individual's responses, whether with weapons or not) should be a health issue, not a political issue.

    Act now to prevent mental health discrimination. These diseases are not ghosts, they are real and cause the destruction of many valuable lives each year.

    It is time to allow those with mental health issues and their supportive loved ones to be able to walk around out in the open without shame or negatives being put upon them; no less actually restricting and limiting their opportunities in life any further than they are actually capable of achieving.

    Pull together to help those that need healing! I have been there before...and it is really something to be educated about so others do not have to go through it alone.
