Are there functioning alcoholics? How about people that take weed on a regular basis? Are all these people unable to do their work?

Please do not categorize people with mental illness as mostly being less predictable and reliable. You are doing exactly what the article is speaking out against.

There is many levels of being able to function well or not at all with people with mental illness. Even within each area (OCD, depression, schizophrenia,etc.) people have different capabilities.

So please don't judge with a broad stroke.
