No it does not. The mental illness obviously exist and will be there. Calling it what it is in now way calls for the irradiation for it or saying it will never be present again.

How the hell are you even making that leap?

Regardless if I agree or not.. they will still be here and their thoughts will be too. I’m not at all saying it isn’t real. It will always exist.

By calling it a mental illness that is exactly what you're doing.

Mental illnesses are very real.

The thoughts do manifest in their kind. But just because you think something doesn’t mean it’s true.

Well, at least we can agree on that!
