Dear Nullas Salus--

This is fine for you but don't help the artist worth a damn. The artist is, despite the art, an actual human, an actual suffering human in this case.

Mental illness is a problem, but it is not helped by the refusal of our culture to estimate artists as being worth anything until dead. And I mean good artists who know they are good. Imagine the suffering of artists who doubt themselves--and that's most artists.
