On: “We Just Can’t Have You Here”

I agree with you on Yale's actions and the suitability of those actions. That does not mean the lesson she drew from her experiences is incorrect; In the real world the only person who always has your back isyou. If you're fortunate one of friends or family will actually be there for you if you need them, if lucky both. Institutions are inhuman and they protect themselves Bureaucracies do not give a shit.

When suffering from mental illness, this belief can be simultaneously helpful and devastatingly incorrect.

In context of this post, from personal experience, I can tell you only one thing: This is almost never true.
