Cam - I sincerely and wholeheartedly wish you the best in your anti-stigma campaign. To re-state the obvious, fighting our mental illnesses is challenging enough without having to stay in the closet for fear of ignorance. The 3rd anniversary of my 32 yr. old brother's death by suicide is coming up on April 1. I believe with all my heart that if the attitudes of society in general and my own family in particular had been more enlightened in this regard, my brother would still be alive.
