it does seem unfair, I agree.

I think an issue is (probably the main one) is that people don't want to do the research- they don't want to find out about these things- they just don't want to know, they have their own opinions- we're lazy, we can't make decisions, we're murderers, etc etc

and them edia doesn't help with that.

I don't know why depression seems a more acceptible diagnoses to have.

maybe it's a case of saying, well, everyone gets depressed at some stage- mental health or not, the world's cruel to everyone at some stage

I know it doesn't seem right, but sadly that's the world we live in

it's okay and normal to be "depressed", but get on to the subject of mood swings or obsessive behaviour, people are like... well why. are you making this up?
