I cannot add much to the solution to this problem but I believe I can safely say that referring to people with neuro-brain disorers as "nut cases"doesn't help
Reading this thread I am left with the impression that all mental illness cases are being treated as the same. The fact is there are degrees the same as the levels designated with cancer, burns, etc. many people have mental issues but live full lives in many professions. It is unfortunate when a "sandy Hook"incidnt occurs because it puts thr spotlight on one person ignoring the millions of people who will never harm anyone.
The mental health system is inadequate and underfunded. Further diagnosis is tricky and an initial diagnosis can be incorrect.
I have a physical disease that was never properly diagnosis until 26 years later and the docs all had a visual view so how much harder is it to diagnosis a brain disorder. Remeber Alzheimer's has many of the same symptoms as mental illnesses and I don't hear people call them nut cases. Perhaps it because they are concerned that they or a love one could sucumb to this disease and not other mental disorders. Please in discussing this topic let's hope reason supercedes emotion
