[QUOTE="InsaneCdn, post: 543965, member: 11791"] {{hugs}} I know. It's not just your culture... I lived through some of it, too... and while a "lived to tell the tale", the experiences DID leave deep scars. Would they act the same way if it was a physical disability? like blind, or spinal bifida? It seems like there is a progression with acceptance of disabilities. The obvious ones came first, seemingly starting with blindness (Helen Keller was probably a major factor!). Then came the developmental - ADHD, Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD), etc. Even here, these are still a work in progress. And then there's the MI issues, which... seem to fall between the cracks everywhere. But the ones who make a difference on the general public conciousness are those who HAVE the issues and yet overcome.... somehow. [/QUOTE]
