You know what Kun this is a VERY valid post especially where apparently Africans are 3 times more likely to suffer mental health problems, I say apparently because there is a blurred boundary for me personally as to what defines a mental illness, as western definition may differ from an African one, with this new even loser definition, I feel it will get a whole lot worse. A lose example being a group of black people talking loudly may be seen by a European as an argument, does this mean they are arguing? Not necessarily. I also am also uncomfortable with the widening of who can decide who is to be section with as you have stated 'superficial' training; that is not say that some psychiatrists are not without prejudice but this could be more common place in diagnosis and that is a great concern.


Life is one those things that most of us have to experience... Love peace \'N\' hair grease.
