This was a community service announcement that Eric Bana did for Mental Illness Fellowship, of which I'm a member. I got it (with permission) from their website.

Australia is showing us us up in the UK. I wish we had such positive campaigns here but we're sooo far being in many ways.

and it's sunnier there too.

its not been proven about the chemical inbalance, i like the fact it makes people aware 1 in 5 suffer but apart from that i HATE this ad. Looks like pill-pushing psych's have had their hands on that guy already as well! look at them eyes..too much thorazine and prozac i reckon.x

There is absolutely no clinical evidence that mental "illness" sic is caused by chemical imbalance in the brain. That is propaganda to sell drugs for big Phrma. It's a lie.

Clinical Mental Illness Ah Ha Ha Ha Ha---MANDATORY COMPULSION--Ah Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha--FORCEABLE DISORDER--Ah Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha!!! Sez the Unitarian Mental Health Lady!! You people do Matthew Hopkins PROUD. Reason Mental Health Professionals can't have disorders is their degree IMMUNIZES them. BUT a dermatologist is a REAL MD & doesn't claim his degree immunizes him from wasp sting, sunburn or melanoma. "But Judge the DISORDER made me do it" is the wail of those fleeing personal responsibility!!!!!

chemical imbalance hasn't been proven

[halcyonhalogen]

Yeah, it's a good attitude. As a long-time service user living in the community I'd say pretty much everyone has mental health issues if people were honest.
