I don't know the state of affairs in America, but I would be more inclined to blame the government for lack of funding.
That and the ignorance the general public have towards mental health.
Possibly many tragedies could be avoided if people picked up symptoms earlier and there was help to be had.
I think there's a pretty thin line between mental illness and religion.
It's basically the difference between "God speaks to me (In some vague indescribable way)"
And "God speaks to me (really, he speaks to me)"
Or "God guides me (in some vague way)" and "God guides me (God really is in control of me sometimes)"
It really is hard to separate a mentally ill person with delusions with someone who is deeply religious with delusions.
And i will definitely agree there is a fine line and well.. religion in this case.. really doesn't server a purpose to help someone
if they have mental illnesses on the off chance if i'm wrong which i hope i am it does some good.
Atheism is a non-prophet organization join today.
