Please show more concern for others

It is always sad when mentally ill people hurt other members of society.

A lot of people complain about the lack of support for mentally ill patients. They say the government should do more to help these patients.

But they seem to have forgotten that many people became mentally ill due to stress from work, strained relationships with family or friends, or a lack of help and concern from society.

If we were more considerate, patient and caring, a lot of tragedies could have been prevented. We should never discriminate against the mentally ill. From now on, treat your family, friends and neighbours nicely.
