I get the impression that you know someone with depression who may have thought or done some of the things Milah did. Depression and other forms of mental illness are terrible burdens that real people have to bear.

This made me dig deeper about my indignation on behalf of Milah. Having seen the lives of women, and men, in developing countries first hand, I got to see what obstacles they faced. So it angers me when people dismiss the difficulties these people experience. Milah was treated like garbage on the show – murdered, and then tossed into the River of Souls. The sad truth is that underprivileged people are, all too often, treated in a similar fashion in the real world. I will admit that it doesn’t sit well with me when people, many of whom have privileges they don’t even realise they have, are so quick to pass judgement on the less fortunate without taking so much as a moment to try to understand or empathise.
