I remember watching an interview with Paul Newman. The interviewer asked him how he had become so famous...did he have to work hard at it, network with the right people...? Newman;s answer was one I'll never forget. He looked straight at the interviewer and said "One word. Luck."

I think you got that right, Christina.

blue, good point about social media. Oh, my gosh...I remember when mental illness was thought to be such a hopeless state of existence. People were terrified of being "locked up" for being "crazy" - and I'm really not sure those people even knew what they were referring to when they used the word "crazy."

I have absolutely no doubt that younger generations, those 35 and below, will view mental illness just the way they view any other illness. And hurray for that!
