This really jumped out at me as a rather dangerous statement. When people on the street meet me, they wouldn't think I have a mental illness.

That's the problem with mental illness. People assume that if you aren't seeing talking manatees and trying to kill people, you don't have mental issues and that's so completely wrong.

A holistic practitioner can help to an extent, but the statement he made that I quoted makes me really nervous about him. In my opinion, I would continue talking with licensed psychiatrists and get a few opinions there personally.
