Some people think they are so enlightened about depression because so many celebrities talk about it,but they think everyone with certain disorders are a threat.NAMI could start a speakers bureau of people w mental illness going to schools to talk about their challenges and the amazing things they have done in their lives.

—I learned that in some cities nami does have this type of speakers bureau going into the schools. One of my pet peeves is that people think that clinical depression is like being sad because you might not pass a class. Totally different, more like walking through quicksand. Hopefully these speakers will explain these things.
