  5. If you don't think your anxiety, depression, sadness and stress impact your physical health, think again. All of these emotions trigger chemical reactions in your body, which can lead to inflammation and a weakened immune system. Kris Carr

  6. I can't show you how, exactly, health care is a basic human right. But what I can argue is that no one should have to die of a disease that is treatable. Paul Farmer

  7. Recent Multi-State Study Mortality Data: Years of Potential Life Lost • Compared to the general population, persons with major mental illness typically lose more than 25 years of normal life span Colton CW, Manderscheid RW. (2006). Prev Chronic Dis. 3(2).

  8. My view is that health care reform should be guided by a simple principle: Fix what's broken and build on what works. And that's what we intend to do. Barack Obama

  9. 80% of health apps are abandoned within two weeks. Marco Della Torre

  14. WHA 45.10 The forty-fifth World Health Assembly, 1.

World Health Organization, May 1992 Document WHA45/1992/REC/1, p.62

  15. It is time to revisit the notion of institutionalizing those with severe mental illness…An institution, while restrictive, is less so than jail or homelessness. It would provide a place for those with severe mental illness to obtain the intensive care they need while protecting the public from yet another failed social experiment. “runner12” post on Red State website
