It is changing.
I have two children. One who has went through a bout of extreme depression. They are both very willing to talk about their experiences. They tell people they are in counseling. They share all about it. It gives me hope that things really are changing, but there will be some people who come from a time that the just cannot accept mental illnesses or feel comfortable talking about it.
You can only pray for them, but continue to work on YOU! It's all any of us can do!
I am glad you are here.
ps...I don't know how my font got to be so huge in my post, I am so sorry about that! By the time I tried to change it, it was too late and I could not.
