Yeah, I couldn't agree more. That last episode ruined the show for me. It wasn't cool, it wasn't funny, it was downright insulting and hurtful. But that's just it, isn't it? If you've got a physical ailment, everyone's concerned, helpful, etc. - if your problems are psychological you better suck it up or we lock you away out of sight, out of mind.
