A member asked:
What to do if i have severe ocd and depression, and my friend is saying mental illnesses are not real?

Always remember: That you don't have the power to change another person's behavior or biases. Your friend who says that mental illnesses are not real is woefully incorrect - but luckily it isn't your responsibility to alter his/her views. You take care.
