I think you misunderstood when I said I don't like it being called a mental problem. Yes it is a mental problem, I know that, but people tend to associate what that means incorrectly. They hear "mental" and think Mind over Matter. So where you understand that people need help, too many people don't agree. Just wish they could come up with some other "technical" term for it. Help get rid of the stigma around those disorders. +100 Yes, situations can definitely make existing conditions worse! And while I would love there to be more awareness, it won't help until there is a change in people's attitudes. Way too many people will say they believe that a condition exists, but won't believe someone they know actually has it or believe how truly debilitating it can be.
