Some time back I read about a guy trying start a "Mad Lib" movement in England modeled after the idea of gay lib. I think that he may be on to something. I wonder how many cases of "mental illness" are made to be much more suffering because of the pressure from self and others to be "normal."
Perhaps some of us are rather like sexual minorities in denial. If we, and those around us, could be unconditionally accepting, then some of the misery could be alleviated.
