Re: Mental-health savings costly, Sept. 10 editorial.
The editorial in the PAN regarding mental health was excellent.
Mental illness, like physical illness, needs to be addressed by diagnosis and treatment.
The headlines these days in the papers and radio are calling for more attention to be paid to mental health.
To close an evening clinic at the hospital seems like a backward step.
And if closed, it will probably be very difficult to open again.
Even though mental illness is difficult to discuss, the more we know about it the better.
