Is discrimination on mental health grounds still a thing?

Having suffered from depression in the past, I still wonder if discrimination towards me still exists. The obvious answer is it does. It's a tough lesson that people through their ignorance and reading of sensational headlines in the media fall foul of the stocking of fear and resentment towards those who suffer.   Often this is due to the ignorance and lack of understanding and knowledge on the part of the discriminator. Hence why I continue to write these blog posts in the hope of educating others and help prevent such discrimination. Mental Health issues can take many forms some can be a result of physical trauma. Some can be stress related where you become overwhelmed with self doubt. It can come in many, many forms. The individual can suffer in many ways it is often extremely difficult for the sufferer to verbalise or put into words so that the victim of discrimination is not victimised further by talking about such things.

Human beings are so complicated

 Human beings are so complicated and as they age and grow so they develop many conditions that can affect their health and ability to interact with others.  One should always be tolerant of others difference.

Berating someone is not helpful. As it undermines their confidence and ability to learn. Sometimes communication takes time and can take many attempts to develop understandings and mitigating differences.

The grubbiness leaves me wondering what is next. The hype-train is in full swing when it comes to AI. It has potential so many are investing time, energy and resources to make it work and make it a viable product. 

Personal Blog

I realise this blog is no longer just read by me now. I also know the posts are quite personal in tone, I apologise up to a point but one of things I deal with on a regular basis is the isolation. This blog was set up in order to help with that. Putting thoughts out there in printed form means I can edit and rephrase as I go.  Others may think these posts a waste of time. I for one do not. The reason is I can reflect, change, adapt posts as I see fit. Hope to educate those who do not understand and maybe help articulate better in time.

Imperfection

This goes along with the post about expectations and is always a shock to people for some reason. It is where a lot of the anguish and frustrations laigh (lie).  Perfection is only what we strive for but can never achieve.  Those who demand perfection expect too much. Some might turn their back on seeing such imperfection. This is not the right approach.
