Based on a complete lack of evidence, just a story from a man who makes his living hyping himself on sociable media......yes.
The fact is the Chinese government does not support mental illness as a civil right, but sufferers are not imprisoned nor thrown from rooftops.
I've passed through Chinese immigration hundreds of times, most often land borders, and never had a non-professional experience. After the corruption and extortion from slovenly border guards in Thailand, Laos, Cambodia, it was always a relief to met by a professional in a freshly-pressed uniform, with a salute and a hearty "Welcome to China".
So, yeah. I'm saying this is fake news for clicks, likes and shares. You can believe it if that soothes your need.
