[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 702900, member: 1550"] I have no words of help, just empathy and disgust for your country.I thought only the U.S. allowed our severely mentally ill, which is schizophrenia, to wander the streets with no help and nowhere to live. It is one thing if a person who understands reality refuses to live a good life. It is quite different when a person who truly can't distinguish reality from delusions and hallucinations CAN NOT make rational decisions, CAN NOT figure it out. It is a blight on society and the same as allowing one with Dementia to walk the streets homeless. Both are not able to take care of themselves. Yet we can't care for them either. This is not the same as a kid who understands reality deciding to take and sell drugs. This isn't anxiety or depression. I have both and always did and it is not anywhere as severe as the mind stealing schizophrenia. You are able to understand how to get help, even if you don't, with both anxiety and depression. Schizophrenics often truly believe people can read their thoughts, are out to kill them and that medications are poison. How can they fend for themselves? How can our country expect them to? This is so wrong Sending warm vibes and healing hugs. I am so sorry. [/QUOTE]
