I don't know that I believe mental illness needs any "help" from other medical conditions. One cannot see or feel high blood pressure and most people with the condition do not get it checked or treated. Many people with handicapped parking stickers more or less jump out of their cars and walk into/through whatever store or location/event where they are.

It does not bother me that others have bipolar, depression, anxiety, or whatever medical conditions as compared to my own, and it does not bother me that there are a lot of ignorant idiots out there; it is not my job to set the ignorant idiots straight (although I must confess I do try to a bit too often :-)
