running the numbers from this report back in 2000 ,1 in 5 have mental illness each year -that is about 20% of Americans -1/2 don't get help

1/2 of 20% is 10% which means those numbers are just as high as substance use disorders if math done right - yet it's a dirty secret still

So why do we? Because of stigma!?!? They must be "bad" people?? So sad! Prioritize this, too many are dying to line pockets of drug lords!

Yet you also tolerate it for mental health. Educate this country about the symptoms and spectrum of mental illness,please! End stigma.
