Perhaps if we just had them diagnosed with a mental illness first, then we could do that.

It's fully legal in over 2/3rds of North America. Several other countries, and many localities have either legalized or decriminalized it.

I'm in my 40's and I never met either of my grandmothers because they died of breast cancer in their late 20s / early 30s. Two of my aunts are breast cancer survivors and are in their late 60s. I know SEVERAL cancer survivors, and even the ones who haven't survived ended up living a lot longer - and better quality life - than they would have a generation or two ago.
There's still work to be done, but we really have come a long way in treating cancer.

This is a bit concerning, not only did they find that CPAP doesn't necessarily improve heart health, it can also have a negative impact on it. I've been a CPAP user for around a year now and it has greatly improved my quality of life, I hate to hear that it might be doing damage to my heart.
