I was deeply concerned when I read this article. I realize the budget cuts are necessary, but we need to find a way to ensuer the mentally ill are taken care of. This is a common problem statewide. I am wondering if we could get the money in loans or grants to help with this problem. I am sure that Bruce Lunsford will help us any way he can, as will the ppl currently in office. Also, Barack Obama will have some good input as well. I was treated for Major Depression for years. I no longer have that problem, but it could come back at any given time. I had trouble getting any help since I don't have good insurance. This is a common problem for ppl across the entire state. I believe help starts at the local level. If that isn't possible, then we can always go higher. I am enclosing my e-mail. If anybody has suggestions on how we can help the mentally ill in other ways, let's all work together and try to come up with something! Thanks, and God Bless all of you!
