I'd say physical illness. I know when it comes to something physical, I'm extremely strong, and pretty tough. If I had a mental illness, I'd be worried I'd be a different person, and my physical condition could be put down to my mentality.

Well, neither is a choice I'd want to make.
But since I have diabetes, I know that many physical ailments can be controlled with or without meds -
I know people who have mental illness, others who have chronic health problems. I believe that those with physical problems might not live a comfortable life, or a life as they'd like, but it has to be better than living with true mental illness, which is devastating.

I would rather have a physical illness. Science has proven to be more affective at treating physical illness. With most mental illnesses it all winds up being a guessing game.

i would rather have a mental illness there easier to deal with and hide from people puls need less treatment and are cheaper to help. i have ocd and yes it causes me alot of problems but it also makes me see things differently then other people.

what kind of question is this? i wouldnt chhoose either, nor would i wish either on my worst enemy.
ive been living with a cronic illness all my life, so i know what it can be really like. you hear about signs n symptoms of diseases n what its like to live with a condition, but you cant begin to imagine what its really like unless you actually experiance or witness it, especially on bad days.
dont be so damn ignorant and naive!!!!
