People may think all mental illnesses can be fixed with medicine or that the medicines for mental illness have less side-effects than they do. To add to the misunderstandings, there are slasher films with deranged persons, and the news media often makes a point to mention that some spree killer was under treatment for mental illness. So the public only sees the most sensational of those with mental illness. They often don't hear about the success stories, so this feeds into the misunderstandings.
