I didn't want to threadjack Novella's post, but her situation with her sister brings up something interesting for me. What is the line between being mentally ill and being an asshole?
I don't necessarily think there's a right answer to this question. What are your thoughts?
*I don't in any way mean to imply that all mentally ill people are assholes. That's absolutely not the case. But there are instances where reprehensible behaviour can be legitimately attributed to an underlying mental illness.
