discrimination

It was until I was diagnosed that I started understanding the pain of discrimination. References and jokes about being "crazy," "being medicated," specially in t.v. would hurt... badly.

Besides working for an end to discrimination, lets not allow this to embitter our hearts. Let us like the Saints before us, FORGIVE.

Discrimination is a cause of so much of the shame associated with the struggles of mental illness.

I love the picture you used for this post. Do you know anything about it?

It is a work by Macha Chmakoff. You can google her (his?) name and find a bunch of her (his?) art.

Thanks for the comment!
