Noa,
See my post, above, under the thread "Do people think you're weird" --Neal
BTW, this survey of the public's perception of mental illness was done in the early 1990's
Public perception of mental illness.
___________________________
71% -Due to emotional weakness
65% -Caused by bad parenting
45% -Victim's fault; will it away
43% -Incurable
35% -Consequence of sinful behavior
10% -Has biological basis; involves the brain.Hopefully, the public has become a little more educated in the last ten years, but I wouldn't bank on it.
