Sure, the rich and famous have access to more resources than most of us, but it's still somewhat reassuring to see other achieve their goals and manage mental illness, you know? (I don't guess what I'm saying really relates to Tony's grandmother, but you know what I mean, ha.) @ Damien – Thanks for chiming in Sometimes when we hear about how “well-known” people have battled mental health problems, it not only makes them seem more “real” (the people, not the problems, haha), but it also makes our own successes seem more reachable.

Just that fact makes me feel better that my wife's grandmother is. Tony Curtis is a talented guy and so is his daughter. Thanks for dispelling the stigma yet a bit more.
