> NAMI is a marketing arm of the pharmaceutical companies.
That is an incredibly biased and completely untrue statement.
NAMI has been working for years to destigmatize mental illness, to the point of labeling people with mental illness now "consumers", that is, people who go to someone to get help just like anyone would go anywhere else, to a barber.
They fund, with local sources, outreach groups, counseling groups, depending on funding in areas.
I'm not quite sure what else to say to your comment but it is completely untrue.
