What You Need to Know
Serious Mental Illness, otherwise called more accurately, Serious
Brain Disease, has a huge impact on individuals so afflicted, their families, and
the greater community. The ineffectiveness
of what passes as a “mental health system” is no surprise to those who live in
the trenches. Who lives in the
trenches? Aside from the homeless and
those incarcerated for crimes committed while in the throes of untreated brain disease, adult children still under the
care of their families, spouses/parents/grandparents who need additional care and may not be participating in family relationships, professionals,
and those who lives are directly impacted by someone with a serious brain
disease, us, we are in the trenches. The
picture is rather bleak as there are few options for managing the so-called
mental health crisis that our country faces.
