@singlemaltgirl It has gotten better for illnesses like Depression, but worse for schizophrenia.
@ChrisaHickey i can see it getting better for mental illnesses that impact peeps we likely know. which is great.
but i have never thought that schizophrenia has ever been positively regarded. there's always been stigma, shame, etc. i haven't seen that change - just stay the ugly way it's always been. but it's uglier now?
i'd ask how but there's seeming no bottom to peeps' capacity for intolerance & ignorance.
@ChrisaHickey As a mentally ill person, stigma has always been nasty I don't notice any difference.
@emergencyremedialtruth I understand and I'm sorry.
@ChrisaHickey It's been a long life I am used to it and allow myself zero self pity about it.
@ChrisaHickey cause people are fuckin assholes? Just spitballin here
@ChrisaHickey i think it's always been pretty bad, no? i certainly hasn't gotten better that i can remember.
