Just because a disorder originates in the brain doesn’t make it a mental illness. Confusing or combining the two makes it difficult for people with either to live and get treatment. Especially when both come with a heavy social stigma. So please delete this ignorant poll and fuck outta here. Love, a redditor who deals with both a stutter and a mental illness, handles both with grace, and is fed up with ignorant idiots.
