I feel myself very fortunate that I can drive, work and enjoy certain social functions. But, I may not be the norm with people who have mental illness. It is unfortunate that some find it too difficult and terrifying to be able to leave their household. But it is not due to lack of ambition or will but a symptom of what illness they have. Please try and not be judgemental as you don't know their whole story and what they have to endure on a daily basis. Some of the people are the bravest I have ever heard about. I am sure you did not realise when you posted and hopefully understand better. Maybe it would help if you researched some of the disorders and how devastating they can be. Please be kind and understanding of others as I am sure it was just an instance on your part of not having all the facts.
