Don't know what I should write now, but I think it's good and courageous to write about it. :*

Yeah, unfortunately not enough attention paid to mental health. As someone who has also been through some rough patches I was lucky that when I was in my early teens there were in patient facilities in SF. I'm not sure about current numbers but I'd imagine if there are any facilities left they are very limited. If not for the help that I got I'd likely not be here today. And yeah, I did a fairly good job keeping my family in the dark about what was going on with me until I was found nearly dead. I don't know what the answer is, but surely it isn't cutbacks on mental health care so much so that you can't even get help anymore in your area.
