"There is still a very strong belief among the general public, if not many physicians, that there really is no such thing as psychiatric illness, that it is just a weakness on the part of the person that if they only tried harder, they would be OK," explains Thom Liffick, M.D., medical director at Southwestern Indiana Mental Health Center, Inc.
...
REALITY: "People with psychiatric illness are much more likely to be the victims of violence than the perpetrators of violence," says Dr. Liffick.
...
So, there are, of course, many bright people who are struck by schizophrenia, but there are also a very many ordinary people affected by it," Dr. Liffick explains.
