Taboo of mental illness in my culture

idk why people think the brain as an organism is impervious to illness. and tlel you to get over it etc. like bro , get over your heart disease or diseased pancreases. its a brain disease. theres no debate about it. nothing to be ashamed about, nothing to philosophise about or hey maybe its this or that or just need to snap out of it. its a disease. you cant snap out of parkinsons, you cant snap out of ALS, you cant snap out of schizophrenia.

Oh really? I didn’t know that

I only knew about John Nash.

I regret sounding bitter about it, I just wish it was better known in general. I’m surprised people are still mistaking it for dissociative identity disorder.

No worries

I get you, I felt like that with my family too

My mom thought it was DID too when I talked about that to her

If I’m not wrong this music is about his schizophrenia
