I don't think they should be fired because of the fact they have a mental illness but rather what they did because of the mental illness or the severity of the mental illness. If there had been no bad events happening because of mental illnesses, they should be allowed to work as they have controlled
so far

# data[].attributes.body
I think that mental illness should have the same rights as someone without a mental illness as long as they are managing their illness and it wouldnt affect them seriously in their job

It was nice of his friend to leave his own show that he was looking forward to just to check on his friend because he knew that something might have been wrong and helped his friend

# data[].attributes.body
One person who did have a mental illness came out to someone, opening up to it, since many people may not know about it

# data[].attributes.body
It was good that he came to his freinds dide but he should have thought about his own job

Its like normalizing talking about mental health with others, how they were having a conversation on it

We think that people shouldn't be discriminated against based on if they have a mental illness or not. Everyone should have a fair chance, and the officer in the video seems to be intolerant mostly because of her misconceptions about mental illness. That's why people should learn about mental disorders instead of believe everything the media says.

We don't think Ian should be fired because of his bipolar disorder. He is perfectly capable of doing his job, and just because he has a disorder doesn't deem him uncapable.

Talks about how sharing and talking about mental illnesses could help eachother since it can tell others that they are not alone

This clip was extremely sad yet inspirational since one of the brothers left his show to go support his brother in a time of need. It highlights the fact that he values the happiness and health of his brother over the success of his play.

This was very brave of her to come out about her despression and it shows how she is seeking acceptance and understanding instead of pity.

# data[].attributes.body
I kinda thought that one of her sentences was really true and it was "you cant fix me"or somehting like that, because you cant (unless your a therapist which because this is a school event I assume youre not) however you can still be there

# data[].attributes.body
I kinda get why he said yes even though he didnt mean it, because I think hes trying to keep her optimistic

Some people have all of these pent up emotions and when you explain them, you will also see that even if you are going through things, other people can be too, so make sure to know both sides of the story

It was so awesome and helpful on how Alexa helped Katie during her panic attack and saying "i'm here" and "it's ok"

# data[].attributes.body
I liked that the panic attack was not played for drama in an inappropriate or gratuitous way. It showed that getting support from both your immediate loved ones and therapists can allow people to still live satisfying lives, even if not everything is great all the time.

# data[].attributes.body
I like how Alexa was helping Katie through her panic attack. I think it was great that Katie went to a therapist and talked about it afterwards.

# data[].attributes.body
I thought it was interesting that Alexa didn't freak out when Katie had a panic attack, but she helped her.

# data[].attributes.body
It was very well portrayed (with the fact of the panic attack slowly occurring) and how one should react to an attack

# data[].attributes.body
I like how both of them opened up, father and daughter, and helped each other

# data[].attributes.body
I think it was well portrayed I just didnt like how they had a laugh track over some stuff

# data[].attributes.body
This scene talks a lot about the apprehension people may have with seeking help. At the end though, the scene brought the fact that everyone needs help sometimes to the light.

# data[].attributes.body
I get that attitude that "therapy is for white people" and I also get the attitude that you have to put up a front

It was great how the brothers are close and there for them.

# data[].attributes.body
I liked how she realized the right way do deal with their grief.

# data[].attributes.body
I agree with Ian on how he stood up when she discriminated him because he has a mental health. I also love how the two other people stood with him against their boss even though they risked their job.

# data[].attributes.body
It was extremely unfair for Rita to infer that just because Ian had bipolar disorder, he was not meant for the job. It is not just for someone to be denied their rights because of something they cannot control or change. I applaud Ian for standing up for his own rights, and I condemn Rita for her unjust assumptions/actions.

# data[].attributes.body
I do not think that was fair because it was not his fault that he had a mental illness.

# data[].attributes.body
The clip was very moving, because it truly showed how everyone, no matter who they are, can be united. In the clip, one of the friends gave up what was probably very important to him in order to go help his friend in need. He knew his friend was struggling, and even though his brother had come to watch him perform in the play, yet he still went to support his friend in need.

# data[].attributes.body
I feel so bad for the man because something happen to his friend.

# data[].attributes.body
I really applaud the woman for being right-out and speaking about her mental health condition like it was. However, the man did not seem to take it as lightly. I think many people do not deem it fit for themselves to hang out or even be around someone who has a mental illness. It is really important to understand that one can be so much more than just their mental illness -- an illness doesn't define them; they define their illness.

# data[].attributes.body
I love how she told the man the truth.

We found that people who have mental illnesses don't want to be defined by their mental illness. It was brave of the woman for just telling the dude about her mental illness, and she made it VERY clear that she doesn't need him to treat her any differently, she just needs him to accept her.

I like how both of the horses are supporting each other, and opening up to each other. It is nice how the 17-year-old is openly speaking about how she feels, however the other horse seems almost to be slowly backing away from her. Although it is nice to see both of them supporting each other, I think the other horse should be more understanding of her situation.

It's nice that they both sort of opened up to each other but it's also not good to give false hope to someone about a serious topic like this

# data[].attributes.body
I think that the bigger horse also had a mental illness and I think he was lying when he was saying that the voice goes away.

I think that the portrayal of the panic attack was not top class, but it does give an insight to the watcher as to how it may happen. However, it does seem very rehearsed. When Katie was talking to the therapist, though, it seemed a bit more realistic because of the way she was acting/posing.

I thought Alexa did a really good job in making Katie feel more comfortable. I'm not sure what a panick attack looks like, but I thought it was portrayed really well, what with the slowness of the panic overcoming her.

# data[].attributes.body
I love how Alexa helps her friend Katie when Katie had the panick attack.

I feel that toward the beginning of the clip, the mother was very close-minded and assumptive about both her daughter's needs and mental health in general. I don't think she truly understands why her daughter is acting in the way she is, and she always wants to appear strong in the face of her daughter so she doesn't think to share her feelings. She also believes that therapy is strictly for white people, and is a bit racist in the beginning. However, towards the end of the clip, I like how the whole message is tied together by the therapist/counselor says that the ceramics "are for white people too". That one part symbolizes that the mother's mind is finally opening and the mother and therapist/counselor are relating to each other. This is also the part where the mother starts to accept her daughter (and her own self) for who she actually is.

I think that her way of thinking that therapy is for "White people" is kind of making her weaker and she is really hiding her own pain just trying to act like she is really strong and nothing is going to change that and I liked how she finally opened up about her pain and sadness and showed just a little bit of weakness that shows even the viewers that it's okay to open and up and talk about your feelings and no one is going to judge you about that and you shouldn't think that people will

I love how the terapist tried to terapy the mother instead of talking about the daughter.

This was completely unfair to Ian! They were okay with him being hired before anyone knew he had a mental illness, but suddenly, when they found out, he was automatically unfit for the job!

# data[].attributes.body
I think it was nice that they got a chance to talk like this. If the voice doesn't go away it meaning you have some mental health issues
