Unit 14- Mental Health Issues Mental Health Concepts

The perceptions of people with mental-health needs are often detrimental to the development of society, as well as to the development and treatment of the individuals themselves. It is vital for health and social care practitioners to have an understanding of how people develop attitudes and views towards people who use services, alongside the practical use of the concept of mental health by practitioners

What is Mental Health? the psychological state of someone who is functioning at a satisfactory level of emotional and behavioral adjustment A mental disorder or mental illness is a psychological pattern or anomaly, potentially reflected in behavior, that is generally associated with distress or disability, and which is not considered part of normal development of a person's culture. Mental disorders are generally defined by a combination of how a person feels, acts, thinks or perceives.

AND MANY MORE….. Now that you have seen a mere few of the many disorders, what do you think? How can a doctor determine what constitutes a mental illness versus a bad day?

Mis-concepts of Mental Illness Are mental illnesses a form of intellectual disability or brain damage? Are mental illnesses incurable and lifelong? No. They are illnesses just like any other, such as heart disease, diabetes, and asthma. Yet the traditions of sympathy, support, and flowers given to people with physical illnesses are often denied to those with a mental illness. No. When treated appropriately and early, many people recover fully and have no further episodes of illness.  For others, mental illness may recur throughout their lives and require ongoing treatment. This is the same as many physical illnesses, such as diabetes and heart disease. Like these other long-term health conditions, mental illness can be managed so that individuals live life to the fullest. Although some people become disabled as a result of ongoing mental illness, many who experience even very major episodes of illness live full and productive lives.

Mis-concepts of Mental Illness Are people born with a mental illness? Can anyone develop a mental illness? No. A vulnerability to some mental illnesses, such as bipolar mood disorder,can run in families. But other people develop mental illness with no family history. Many factors contribute to the onset of a mental illness. These include stress, bereavement, relationship breakdown, physical and sexual abuse, unemployment,social isolation, and major physical illness or disability. Our understanding of the causes of mental illness is growing. Yes. Everyone is vulnerable to mental health problems. Many people feel more comfortable with the notion of having 'a nervous breakdown' rather than a mental illness. However, it is important to talk openly about mental illness, as this reduces the stigma and helps people to seek early treatment.

Mis-concepts of Mental Illness Are people with mental illness usually dangerous? Should people with a mental illness be isolated from the community? No. This false perception underlies some of the most damaging stereotypes. People with a mental illness are seldom dangerous. Even people with the most severe mental illness are rarely dangerous when receiving appropriate treatment and support. No. Most people with a mental illness recover quickly and do not even need hospital care. Others have short admissions to hospital for treatment. Improvements in treatment over recent decades mean that most people live in their communities, and there is no need for the confinement and isolation that was commonly used in the past. A very small number of people with mental illness need hospital care,sometimes against their will. Improvements in treatment are making this less and less common, and fewer than one in a 1000 people are treated this way.

Mis-concepts of Mental Illness Is stigma one of the biggest problems for people with mental illness? Yes. One of the biggest obstacles for people recovering from mental illness is confronting the negative attitudes of other people. These often mean that people with mental illness face isolation and discrimination just for having an illness. Positive and hopeful attitudes of family, friends, service providers, employers, and other members of the community toward people with mental illness are critical to ensuring quality of life for people with mental illness and supporting recovery.
