:Changing our Minds, thos with mental illness need understanding and respect, By FAYE WHITBECK, Staff Writer

June 30, 2008 - 1:00pm — lapqmz smith

I am at present suffering from mental illness. Also I am an advocate for the mentally ill. Staff who are caring for these individuals need intensive training in giving 'Respect' and 'Dignity' toward clients, the mentally ill. Most of the time we are not heard, because it is thought we are incapable of taking care of ourselves so we should always listen to others and thus do not have a voice that is heard. I appreciated this one article written by Faye Whitbeck as it is one in many thoughts being felt accross the country.
