I do not and will never understand so-called "religious" people who think all we need to do is pray the mental illness away. Guess what, I'm religious and I tried that, and it didn't work! I believe God works through doctors and scientists who develop treatments that help us. I'm so sorry you had that discussion with your daughter's aunt. She is so ignorant.
