Mental illness: unpleasantness for whom and why

Submitted by Paul Grobstein on Thu, 09/11/2008 - 5:24pm.
Nice issue. Is mental illness defined by unpleasantness for people so diagnosed or unpleasantness for the people around them? How much of the unpleasantness of some states of being is attributable to the unpleasant feelings it provokes in other people?
