When asked to think about mentally ill people, what first comes to mind?
Crazy

How do you react to such people?
They make me anxious. I wonder what they might do next.

What are your thoughts or feelings about people in general with mental illness?
I know that most of the time they can't help it, so I guess,  I feel pity.

What do you do when you encounter a person with mental illness?
Well I have never had to interact with a person that has a mental illness. But, when I see someone that appears to be mentally ill I give them a wide berth.

 What are the sources of your perceptions of mental illness?
The media mostly. It creates misconceptions that aren't often corrected.
