Sad for all involved.
Very important post. I think people need to understand that blaming someone with Mental Illness for acting in a manner that isn't normal to you is akin to blaming an epileptic for having a seizure or a person with heart disease having a heart attack. These are the symptoms of the disease.

It's a pretty ####ing horrible existence.
