Why the instinct to survive?

I hope we can continue to develop programs that really help people. I hope that people with mental health issues eventually one day get all the same rights and treatment as everyone else.

I hope so, too. It would be really nice to be inside a healthier head.

Quote:I'm not sure how many of you are familiar but I am working at a health care centre right now that is teaching a form of therapy called Dialectical Behavioral Therapy.. and the skills in the program have proven to be very useful for a few specific diagnoses.. but we are hoping to make the program available to everyone eventually. I come on websites like these to study people, their responses, and then see what I can take back with me and apply it to the program to make it more effective for people.

Thank you for doing that. It's really important work.


Quote:So as stupid as some of the question may seem to come across.. I honestly hope to make a difference due to the things you guys have to say.

I don't think your questions are stupid at all. Maybe a little naive, but definitely not stupid... and I'm glad you're asking them if the answers are educational to you.
