is a brave person for speaking out about mental illness. The only thing more terrible and debilitating than having a mental illness is having one and not being aware of it. I think he has helped many people who may not know the symptoms of being mentally unstable or DID. It's a confusing thing, but the good news is that with honesty and proper therapy, DID is a disease that is 100% curable.
They are saying now that 300,000 returning american troops have PTSD (much like DID) and are untreated. Mental illness is a huge killer, and inflicts much damage on the social landscape.
