I'm in the UK, and very, very few insurance companies cover either mental illness or HIV related. I find this totally disgusting.
OK, over here we have our "wonderful" (joke!) NHS, which gives free health care, but the waits are stupid. My pdoic wants to hospitalise me, but we have to plan itmover two months to get me an "non suicidal" admission. How useless?
The whole attitude to mental health stinks doesn't it... I always get this feeling "it's not a real illness".
