Mental Illness…

What is the best help for mental illness? Often people try to find help for mental illness in ways that just medicate their problem or problems, instead of solving their problems.
Some people get involved in addictions, unhealthy relationships, poor diets, alcohol, and drugs, etc.
Simply taking care of one’s diet, getting enough sleep, exercise, having a social life, and having a purpose in life are 5 things to consider before even considering taking medication.
After looking at these simple suggestions and to notice nothing getting better, then professional help is wise to look into!
Sometimes medication helps and other times it can create more issues if there are things that can be fixed to avoid medication.

Mental Illness And Sin Is The Root Of Many Problems?

The treatment covers the symptoms but does not get to the root of the problem that is all somehow rooted in sin, maybe not their sin, but sin none the less.
Remove the sin and the mental illness reduces to a manageable situation. There is help for mental illness, but without God and prayer, the outcomes are often less than favorable.
 
There are people that you even know who are in our society that has a mental illness; many famous people have been affected by mental illness. Medication can help, but getting to the root of the problem is critical!
But getting to the root does not always happen, unfortunately! Without God’s healing grace and personal cooperation of the afflicted person, real recovery is not possible, and it is just covered up with a temporary bandage. ~ Bill Greguska

Mental Illness Has Become More And More Treatable!

Medications, therapy, patience, understanding, and love.

The only difference is that their illness makes life sometimes harder to deal with. But with God, all things are possible, and most people who have some mental illness can lead useful lives with help from God, others, and medication.

It is known that drugs will bring out symptoms of emotional illness, or else drugs will magnify any current issues. 

The problem is that that the drugs and alcohol make things more magnified in a negative way. Also, when a person diagnosed then uses alcohol or drugs while on their medication, this also magnifies any issues that they are dealing with in the first place.
