Just a note to say I went to the website... the writing is on the wall and I was very touched by what I saw. If we all band together as one I agree that we can defeat the stigma of mental illness. I have a son who is 22 and disabled. He tried commiting suicide in 2005 after graduation from high school. I can't begin to tell you how much this has affected my life. Two yrs. ago I was diagnosed with depression/anxiety with agoraphobia and seasonal affective disorder. I have been at home for 3 years now taking care of my son. The effects are devastating to say the least. Some days are better than others. But I promised myself that I would do everything in my power to help my son. Let's do what we can and continue this fight. We are all in this together.
