2nd reply with the same answer: I have a HUGE issue with this! Someday I will write a dissertation.

The issue I have, in as few words as possible, is that too many people (doctors and patients) are treating "mentally ill" people as though they need to be "fixed" into something "normal." THAT is a moral issue.

I am trying to figure out what happened to a "mad lib" movement of times past. I think that our illnesses are sometimes treated immorally and we would all be sometimes better served by savoring, not smothering our differences.
