Indeed a very good and valid point here. As I've worked in mental health I have often said to stigmatizing people the same sort of thing to them about mental health, 'JUST because YOU can't see it doesn't mean it doesn't hurst or doesn't exist after all, you'd see a broken leg so what's the diffrence?'

It seems the same sort of argument can be applied here too.
