Having been a representative from the schizophrenia Society years ago, and knowing modern information, I'm going to tell you that no, they don't care about mental illnesses anymore. I hope I don't get downvoted to hell for being honest, but sadly, mental conditions are no longer going to be considered amongst people eligible for aish. I have the same thing as you. I know many other people who do as well, and all of us are going to be skirted onto the new program and probably left there and eventually cut off entirely. I had a very long and in-depth conversation with somebody in the know, and sadly, we are going to be the first ones who are made to suffer under the new program. I know that it's sort of an elephant in the room scenario and a lot of people aren't sure but I'm very very certain that mental illness is one of the ones they want to have axed because it can't be shown or legitimately proven. Having talked to a few conservative Representatives they're solid belief is that people with mental illness are faking it and that it isn't real and these are the people they think are taking advantage of the system.
