For year’s
professionals, researchers, philosophers and many others have examined mental
health searching for answers of existing disabilities. First, there are many
types of mental illnesses. The types include adjustment disorders, bipolar,
sexual disorders, dementia and delirium, as well as many other disorders that
affect people every day. Looking at adjustment disorders, which is a common
diagnosis where the person has difficulties adapting to stress. Bipolar is a
very common disorder, and often I believed the diagnosis are misconstrued.
Bipolar or manic-depression
affects people by bringing forth symptoms such as, hyperactivity, excessive
worrying, and mood swings and so on. After dealing with an individual for more
than a year with Bipolar, I can tell you upfront that the individuals can drive
you crazy if a solution for treatment is not ministered to immediately. The
persons often suffer suicidal tendencies, which I have witnessed first hand
that in most cases the patient is seeking attention.
Few actually threaten
suicide and actually carry it out. Most people believe that Bipolar is a mental
illness, however the truth is Bipolar is directly linked to Chemical
Imbalances, which means it is more neurological than psychological. In other
words, the brain has chemicals that were not nourished. Therefore, when the
nervous system is affected so is the mind and this is why it is labeled under
mental health. The fact is recent studies has directly linked Bipolar to
ancestry or genetics. Studies have shown that most patients diagnosed with
Bipolar often have a family history of mood swings in the family.
The problem then is
treating the diagnosis affectively without over medicating or putting the
patient on medications that influence psychotic breaks. I found that the root
of the chemical disorders that promote mood swings is often linked to childhood
development and trauma that was never dealt with. If the mind has trauma in the
back and it is not brought to the front for learning, accepting, and handling,
then the bipolar symptoms will often increase as a result. Yet, bipolar is not
the only mental health issue we are facing today. Sexual disorders are another
type of disorder that separates itself entirely from bipolar, adjustment
disorders, and other types of diagnosis.
Sexual deviation is more
often than not linked to pornography, abuse, (not always), and other types of
negative behaviors. However, recent studies have proven that Serial Killers or
else psychopath or sociopath behaviors are hereditary. Some studies have
attempted to prove that the symptoms are a direct link to child abuse; however,
I stand to correct them. This may be true in some cases, but not all cases. I
won’t go directly into this subject, since I will be writing a book
specifically discussing serial killers later, however I wanted to point this
issue out since sexual disorders are in fact psychological.
There has been evidence
that link impairments in the brain that are causing the interruptions. The mind
is a tricky thing, and until humankind is able to understand the mind
completely and start accepting some realities, we are going to continue dealing
with mental health and mental illnesses with little results. Again, I will be
addressing these issues in later copies, but for now, we need a briefing to see
where mental health is heading.
Dementia and delirium are
mind disorders in the sense the disability causes memory loss, confusion, and
is very common in the older generation of people. The diagnosis can confuse
professionals if the patient is younger, since other diagnosis has similar
disadvantages. Diagnosis such as alcoholism and drug disorders often causes
mental blackouts, as well as other symptoms.
Although this is listed
under mental health, I stand to correct them when they call the impairment a
disorder. Alcoholism and drugs is often linked to hereditary and is considered
a disease. Alcohol and drugs automatically affect the mind to a degree, but it
entirely depends on the status of the mind before drugs or alcohol became an
issue. Often alcoholism and drug addictions are directly linked to mental
illnesses. This means that there is an issue under the surface, and the patient
often uses alcohol or drugs to cover the ailment.
