...we tend to believe that some illnesses are better than others. And the people that have them are better that have them are better than others... We have to stop judging people because they have a particular illness, and we have to bring back together the mind and the body and treat the person as one person. ...we tend to think about the body and the mind being two different things. Now why that is, I dont know, but we tend the think that mental stuff is over here and physical stuff is over here. And the reality is thats just obviously not the case. We have a lot of research that addresses these issues... We have to stop judging people because they have a particular illness, and we have to bring back together the mind and the body and treat the person as one person... Im reminded about what John Kennedy said several years ago, Too often, we hold fast to the cliches of our forbears. We subject all facts to a prefabricated set of interpretations. We enjoy the comfort of opinion without the discomfort of thought. My challenge to you is to jump into the discomfort of thought. Challenge the assumptions that you have about mental illness and addictions, and lets bring rationality back to this segment of healthcare. ~ Denny Morrison
