why do people feel sorry for people with mental illness???

because deep inside we are glad that we ourselves or our loved ones are not struck with a mental illness, you should not feel sorry for them --- just understand what their illness is and do your best to make them fit into society,

I don't think people pity/feel sorry for them as much as they try to be accommodating and understanding of their differences. For example, I might be more patient with somebody who has a mental illness because they are not on the same level...

why wouldn't you feel sorry for anyone dealing with any challenging issues?
metal illness can cause many people a lot of pain and sadness and i feel sorry that life can be hard at times.
i feel sorry when people have a physical illness, are grieving a loss, have finiancial problems, lose a job, etc.
it is called compassion.
take care. SD

Because, It's COMPLETELY luck based.
Sorry but I feel bad for you for not facing the differences of people in this world.

I agree with you that we shouldn't. If we don't feel so should we make fun of them.

because it wasn't their choice to have it... and they may not be able to do everything...
