Mental Illnesses historically have been diseases that others dreaded and feared -- often because they were uninformed. 

When diagnosed with a mental illness:

• Many people are confused and frightened, and they do not understand what has happened to them.
• They may find it hard to believe they have a brain disorder. 
• They may wonder whether their lives will ever seem “normal” again.

Family Members have questions and concerns themselves for their loved one. 

• What do I do if there is a crisis?
• How can I get a clear diagnosis for my relative?
• What local services in my community am I missing out on?
