Unfortunately we have to live in the real world. Which is what I was kind of getting to in my "rant" on neuro.
Being in places specific to people with mental illness in my opinion and experience does nothing to enhance and prepare ones coping skills and expectations and ability to form new friendships )who are not "trained" in civility rules"), in the real world which is what I believe most of us strive to be engaged in and accepted in as a functioning part of.
Not segregated out as its own populous, like the mentally retarded or at times in our history the African American as examples only.Always a little less than although it would never be openly expressed. Professionals I have known well that confided their mental health issues to me only after learning of mine would never allow for those in their offices to have that knowledge even though they are often unaware that they are not alone there!
