Amazingly eloquent writing! Rcently a number of organizations come out to persuade the public stop asking lung cancer surferrers if they were a smoker. This is called strong support. When I heard it, I wished it would happen in mental health field, too. The heavy cloud of stigma on overdose has been lifted but it still lingering. I agree with you in your original article what caring, understanding and kindness can do to support in addition of improving policy.
