Yes, Fred you're right, people diagnosed with mental illness are more often victims of crime rather than perpetrators, and violence isn't associated with people diagnosed with mental illness above all other groups. We believe what we see in the news, which isn't accurate. News media perpetuate the stigma.
Thanks for the confirmation of those figures DS. I don't have direct contact with the industry so am working very much on hearsay.
