I absolutely agree. The dividing line between mental and physical illness is a throwback to the days of Freud. Now we know about brain chemicals and electric impulses with neurons. There is still much to discover of course, but to me, I don't see the difference between having seizures, depression, or chronic pain. All exist in the human body and all are physical in some way. Dividing out mental illness just adds to the stigma and allows insurance companies to provide separate and less coverage to us.
