This week is World Mental Illness Awareness Week.

While it may seem fun to joke around the workshop that our very own Rocky's exuberance is ADHD or that I myself, in my endless dedication to spinning webs and taking over neglected blogs, could be diagnosed with OCD, there are many people in the world genuinely suffering from these and other challenging conditions, often incorrectly diagnosed, and difficult to treat. The brain is the organ we still know the least about, and the chemicals in medical treatments for mental illness affect each patient differently. Some mental illnesses are easy to recognize for everyone; some are much harder and can lead to misunderstandings and misinterpretations.

Whether you know someone suffering from a mental illness or you yourself are suffering from one, communication and information are key to dealing with it. Educate yourself and your loved ones.
