Sign the petition if you believe the severe forms of "mental" illness are mostly brain based. Or Neuro-endocrine based. Im not bashing the need for a positive environment in order to recover. That is needed as well. But we need better medications. We need less stigma. We need to be looked at by the lay public the same as the lay public thinks of epileptics or someone with narcolepsy. As just someone with an illness. Not a "mental" illness.
All it needs is 150 signatures to make it public, then it will snowball on its own. If it makes the required 25,000 signature cutoff point, the President is REQUIRED to formally respond via a video, statements, etc.
Thanks,
