“Some people think mental illness is a matter of mood, a matter of personality. They think depression is simply a form of being sad, OCD is a from of being uptight. They think the soul is sick, not the body. It is, they believe, something that you have a choice over.
“Every Day” by David Levithan (page 137)
I know how wrong this is.”
Love this quote. Hope this can open someone’s eyes as to how serious mental illness is.

I know right! I love authors who actually address these stereotypes like David Levithan does here, instead of feeding them!
