Jeremy's ideas on essay 3
I'm going to write about societies view's on mental illness and its effects. Of the homeless americans thatlive on the streets have mental problems that could be taken care of if they had adequate medical care that assited there needs, like medication could curb theamount of homeless in america. Societies limited view on mental illness drives it underground were people are ashamed of there illness which causes a persons illness to go unchecked which amplfies the mental condition to the point where some one could seriuosly injure or seriously injure someone else that could result in the death the person or people around that person. Also another form of mental illness is societies way of having social interactions with each other. we as people are social creatures yet in this modern age with the use of the internet and t.v. we continue to separate from each other and in doing so made ourselves less human to one another for example road rage when a person gets so angry when he is driving he could kill the person who cut him off because at that moment that person does not see the victim as another human being with a familiy feelings etc. etc. I guess I will be writing about the view of mental illness of society and how it is ignored and the lasting effects on society.

very nice topic jeremy. The idea that if we just would help the homeless, instead of avoiding them, sould better the society as a whole is perfect. Also the example of sheer instances where we dont see each other as humans, with lives, family, etc.., when roadrage happens, is a perfect example.
