I say YES. not only for the traumatic experience of mental illness.
Most of the humanity is hurt, and hurt others. this is because is difficult to trust find friends and feel secure .

And that's exactly what I try to do with the dyslexia/ADD/Autism/etc. stuff.

People are often considered weird and shunned, when its just a matter of perecieving and thinking differently. The more people understand how it all works, the less frightened, or negative they'll be about it, the more they'll enjoy other's abilities.

I think its much the same with mental illness. Obviously there can be very debilitating aspects, but very often those who have become well, or have a handle on things in some way have some unique abilities and insight into a different world.

most people have great fears, don't talk or admit they have a problem, for the same stigmas. The misinformation and ignorance are terrible.
people laugh and I'm said'' normal'' but many have emotional and mental problems that do not want to admit,

I have been supporting MIND the mental health charity in the UK for 14 years now, every month. I recommend them as a worthy cause to anyone who wants to make a difference.

They genuinely save lives, on a daily basis.

I wish i knew all the answers,but i think the LACK OF GOVERNMENT SUPPORT. It is an NGO that runs the place, and also most people live see no evil, hear no evil lives so if it doesn't affect them directly they dont care
