John --
Math yes -- but don't sell yourself short on the genius thing. A Beautiful Mind is an excellent example of (as was Einstein and many others) of individuals with brains that were highly intelligent and creative and gave society many wonderful things; and yet they suffered from issues dealing with their mental health. I wish the stigma could be explained? If one has a physical problem people sympathize, etc. if someone has a mental issue, they are shunned -- I realize it is changing and the stigma is more political (my opinion) and having to do with $$ (again my opinion) -- but the sad fact I believe is that there will always be a stigma attached to those who have the courage to deal with their mental/emotional health as well as their physical health. Interestingly enough I wonder how many shun those who deal with their health in a complete fashion, do not deal with the big blue elephant in their own life?
Just my 2Sense
