Mental Illness - Crisis?

By Hull & Hull LLP

There is no question that mental illness for the afflicted and families can be devastating.  The Globe and Mail helps to address the national scale of these illnesses in its recent excellent series entitled “Breakdown: Canada’s Mental Health Crisis”. 

Mixing personal stories, professionals’ views and some of the national consequences of the problem, the series provides a holistic perspective on the problem.

The overwhelming huge reader response speaks for itself.

To be sure, there is not much cheer to be found and much heartache, mitigated only somewhat by some success stories.  The ability of some families to pull together in awful circumstances can also offer inspiration to others.

Remarkable journalism.

Thanks for reading.
