Around the world, people are suffering for mental illnesses. While I do not agree with the comment that a mental illnesses are just behaviors that are unacceptable to society, mental illnesses should be taken very seriously. This is because people with mental illnesses have been known to stop taking medications and snap. Once they have done so, they can do harm to others or themselves. David Kopel says, “In situations where a severely mentally ill person presents a grave danger to other persons, involuntary commitment may be necessary (David Kopel, 2015, para. 12). I do believe that some that some mental illnesses are over diagnosed. There are just some that should not be classified as a mental illness.
