Question by Jeff: What type of mental illness?
I volunteer at “the center” (the program for the mentally and physically disabled) at my school and i was wondering since there is such a spectrum of abilities in the students so i wondered what “illness” each person has. I noticed that some students are outgoing, talkative, happy and social while some of the severe students simply sit in the corner and don’t talk, don’t move, make no real words. i just wonder what illness they have or are they just on so much medication that they just sit there?

Best answer:

Answer by Vespa
Every single person is different and every single person has a different story. Some may be on medication, some may not be able to communicate well and some may not like to talk to others, most likely they aren’t on too much medication.
