Why would it be?

Description

Mental Illness is not funny.

Why would someones condition where their own Mind is against them be funny?

Mental Illness is such a serious and taboo subject, only recently has it been more accepted in society that many people suffer with mental illness.

And yet there are still some ignorant people who believe that mental illness doesn't exist! A few of them being my Dad, Nana and Granddad. I can't stand being around them sometimes. My grandparents don't even know I'm Bipolar beause I'm scared of how they'd react.

You guys wanna know what my Nana said to be sevearly Autistic and ADHD brother who has many learning difficulties?

"All you deserve is a good slap."

Nice, right? :/
