I think the entire debate is indicative of one of my key points - mental illness stigmatization is rampant. I admit feeling very relieved to hear PTSD, it seemed a "lesser" diagnosis.

Injury vs illness - a semantic debate which really does diddly squat in the real world. No one should have to feel ashamed or afraid because of a mental health situation. That is where the system has failed us as patients and consumers of their services.
