Sorry to hear about what you husband thinks. I also noticed that a lot of people dont believe in mental illnesses or think people are faking it or something. Im 19 and when I was diagnosed with severe depression and anxiety a lot people in my family and friends kept asking me to just stop it... I was like WTF stop what? I actually didnt know what depression, anxiety were back then and I thought there was nothing wrong with me but when I look back I was doing real bad. For some reason people were mad at me because of the illness, like I was doing something wrong. People would try to force me to do things that I was in no condition to do because they thought I was faking it sometimes. A lot of people got tired of dealing with me.

I dont blame them thought because none of them had any idea what I was going through. I lost a lot of friends and relatives and messed up my whole life because of something that I had no control over. It basically ruined my whole life even worse than it was before it happened. I realize that I will be dealing with some form of mental illness for the rest of my life. I still have mild depression, anxiety, and psychosis. Thats just the way it is sometimes Im okay other times I feel like Im going to do something bad, but luckily I have kept it under control. Sorry to hear about your son also hopefully he will get better one day.
