Assignment:

Homas says mental illness is simply a "myth" and not different from a disease of the body. I think the concept of mental illness is actually a very hard thing to understand. While I see Thomases point I have to also disagree. The illness that causes people to do some of the most inhuman things is just not normal. For example if there was someone who suffers from Schizophrenia. Their delusions can cause them to be violent?
