I didn't write that; someone wrote it in response to me. And I'm probably the one who should apologize for asking the question and using the term "mental illness", not Sally; I'm not so conversant with modern American culture that I know how to be politically correct, and I'm soffy if I have offended anyone by being too blunt.
