Hi Pierro
I think that in the future, people will understand better, maybe not the whole thing, but better than now. This will be because of awareness raising. It is the same with the concept of disability. I became disabled in 1981, and I have seen people changing their minds about disability progressively. Of course, there is a lot to be done ahead, but I feel that people have a better understanding about disability, even in places where there is still a lot of ignorance about it. Somehow we are carrying the torch for the new generations to come. Mental health issues were not even acknowledged in the past. Normalcy is also a concept that is being reviewed by society. Yet mental illness is attached to stigma, but little by little we are changing this. In addition to support each other, perhaps somehow we can spread awareness around us, online, writing anonymous letters, calling to the radio when they talk about the issue. Sometimes I do that, I think I should do more :-)
