A Sad and Disturbing Blog By A Social Security Disability Recipient

The title of Penny Sue Scheff's blog, to the extent it has a title, is Penny Sue Scheff's Blog. I am not dead, I am on Social Security disability. In her blog, Ms. Scheff relates the details of her difficult day to day struggle with schizoaffective disorder. Ms. Scheff is terribly impaired by mental illness and may end up in a long term care facility eventually. The blog is a very disturbing read. It would be a good place to send someone who doubts the reality of "mental illness." I put quotes around the word "mental illness" since that is often done by those who think that psychiatric illness is simply a manifestation of a lack of willpower.
