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.
How does Antisocial and Psychopathic Disorders in mental health boil down to one diagnose? Let us examine the symptoms carefully to see where this topic is going. First, the experts use the diagnose Conduct Control Behaviors or Disorders before they diagnose a patient over the age 18 with Antisocial Personality Disorder. This particular disorder often has other underlying disorders that mimic the symptoms of the actual diagnose. The symptoms include but not limited to fire starters, truancy, theft, harming of people and animals, hostility toward authority, violent outbursts, dangerous sexual acts, willful or malicious destruction of property, compulsive-impulsive explosions, crime, and we cannot go any further than this simply because it will scare you out of your seat. Now let us take a look at Psychopathic symptoms, which include, fire starting, bed wetting, harming or killing people and animals, explosive outbursts, conduct control disorders, inability to regard others, destructive, truancy, neglectful, sexual deviants, hostility toward authority, inability to show remorse or express emotions, impulsive-compulsive behaviors, criminal minded, and we can go on and on. The problem is Antisocial Personalities, Sociopath Personalities, Histrionic Personality and Psychopathic Personalities coupled with a few others all CANNOT show emotions and never show remorse for their behaviors. If they do, it is SUPERFICIAL. Now we can see that mental health and the two different diagnoses link, simply because someone is confused in between. The differences between the diagnosis is slight, yet there is underlying sources that make them different, when in reality the two are the same and someone wants another prognosis to make additional cash off a patient suffering with mental illness. Antisocial Disorder and Psychopathic Disorder are actually one in the same; the only difference is someone is searching for another tool to interrupt the first diagnoses. Instead of saying that a person has psychopathic disorders, they can add on Antisocial Personality Disorder, Psychopathic Traits and Tendencies and make a few extra bucks or spend a few trying to figure out what is already in front of them. Now we can see the link, since one is an advocate of the other. This is also were the confusion comes in, since most experts are conflicting over the diagnose Antisocial Personality Disorder. They had the correct term from the get-go when they used Psychopathic. Psychopathic Personalities types are up on reality, there morals and social beliefs however is what determines there symptoms. They often engage is sexual exploits and are often gravely affected by the inappropriate materials. Pornographic materials are often the leading cause behind the mind of a psychopathic. Few experts believe these people are drug addicts; however, this is not always true. Alcohol and drugs are often used for an excuse for mental illnesses, and the law and mental health experts are responsible for this excuse since these people are always accusing. The truth is these people often have hereditary traits and the behaviors are linked to genes. Not ever psychopathic individual engages in alcohol and drugs, and the history recorded has proven this. Therefore, when we are dealing with Antisocial and Psychopathic we are seeing the same personality disorder. I have first-hand exploited the mind of a psychopathic personality for more than eighteen years now, and did not see any evidence of drugs or alcohol. The individual was diagnosed both with Psychopathic Tendencies and Antisocial and having including many techniques I found these people can be controlled. It takes time, effort, patience, understanding, and a lot of tough love. Therefore, not all psychopathic personality types resort to murder if only the system would put forth the effort to stop or else control the personality types. Most times experts will claim there is no treatment for these types of personalities, and often these leads to deadly grounds. The truth is the experts do not want to deal with in most cases and will wait until the person kills before someone takes the step to stop them. Of course, it takes years to work through the symptoms, but in the long run lives are saved. If time is more important that a life then serial killers will continue killing. We need to stop this now before someone else dies.
Therapists around the globe are constantly searching for answers that help them understand mental illnesses. Cognitive disorders including, dementia, delirium, alcohol-induced disorders, and other related disorders are under constant studies. Most cognitive disorders listed in this article have classic denominators, including loss of memory. Most of the diagnoses are linked to disease of the brain or biological disease, or else alcoholism and related chemicals. Often people with cognitive disorders have difficulty with speech, including relating with others, and reasoning. Their judgment is often affected, and their ability to recognize is often comprehended differently than the normal mind. Often the patients suffer depression, irritation, paranoia, and other related symptoms that could easily be misdiagnosed, since bipolar has similar characteristic symptoms. Delirium includes symptoms that target the awareness, signals confusion, effects speech, loss of memory, imposes fear, stems depression, and many other symptoms that affect the patient. Physical symptoms also insult the patient. Increased heart rate, disturbance in sleep, nausea, and many other physical symptoms make it difficult for the patient to find comfort. Recent studies have shown however that medications can increase symptoms in the disorder, including strokes, heart attacks, imbalances and so forth. Dementia is a type of Alzheimer disease that causes the patient to lose memory, learning inabilities, language impairments, and so forth. AIDS stokes, heart failures, and other chronic problems may cause a person to suffer dementia. People that suffer dementia may personal hygiene incapacities, poor judgment, avoidance, personality altering, and so forth. The diagnoses can be misconstrued for several disorders, including major depressive. It is important to avoid alcohol if you are suffering with any symptoms of mental illness. Alcohol only increases the symptoms interruptions and causes more harm to the patient. Many mental ill patients will resort to alcohol and/or drugs to find a source of relief from their suffering. This is not the solution and should be avoided at all cost. Alcohol-induced disorders are classified in cognitive disorders simply because the symptoms are related, and many of the diagnoses are a direct result of substances in many cases. This is not true of all mentally ill patients. Therapists have treated many patients that have never touched alcohol or drugs. Although many counselors will try to find this as an excuse to eliminate the worst-case scenario. Alcohol induced disorders are also known as ‘Korsakoff’s Syndrome,” which affects the memory directly. Symptoms often include memory loss, denial, indifferences, sometimes-violent behaviors, and so forth. Most alcoholic or drug patients are direct link nutritional deficiencies, which often include B-Complex. It is often difficult to treat alcoholism, however it is possible. It takes the person to will their self free of the substances, acceptance is the beginning of recovery. Many patients that are alcoholics or addicts sometimes treated with medications for physical impairments. I have acknowledged obsessive medicinal deliveries, and often the medicines that are provided to the patient with trigger the alcoholism symptoms. High dosage of B-Complex is often given to patients in extensive outpatient/inpatient therapy where alcohol and drugs are the problem. If the patient is at an early stage then it is possible to treat the patient affectively. Nowadays alcoholism is affecting children, and it is time that we take a step to stop the increase of alcoholism and drug addictions, before it is too late. Therapists are constantly searching for a way to resolve the many mental illnesses today. As they study, they are finding that more problems are out there and it only slows them down, since when they find new discoveries they focus on this problem, pushing the other diagnoses to the back momentarily or else linking them together. Mental illness whether it be alcoholism or other diagnoses is not a game. There are millions of people around the globe suffering everyday and are rarely receiving the care they deserve. We all people and all of us deserve care, including (if not more so) those with mental illnesses. In the next article, we are going to discuss more severe disorders, including antisocial behaviors, obsessive-compulsive behaviors, schizoid, schizotypal, and so forth. I think it is important that we all have a basic knowledge of the many diagnoses in the world. Having a basic knowledge can help us to cope or help someone that is suffering mental illnesses.
Yes, there is a diagnosis titled Avoidant Personality Disorder. This type of personality will often avoid public, since they fear that the people will reject them, disappoint them, humiliate them, or view them as a complete failure. They often are reluctant to ask for help, ask questions, or speak in public. They also work below their abilities since promotions are often frightening for them. Most times, they suffer inferiority complexes, and suffer severe episodes of loneliness, depression, anxiety attacks, and so forth. Schizoid personality types are similar, in the sense, they will avoid public, and however avoidant personality types do not have a need to socialize. We are discussing this disorder simply because I have to question the idea of this disorder in the first place. After studying an individual with multiple personality disorder (MPD), and noticing that the individual displayed avoidant behaviors in certain areas of the persons personality, I noticed that the person was not frightened of social, rather abused and neglect by the father and by the system. The person was raised by a paranoid schizophrenia that taught her or punished her when she would go in the public, or else visit another home. When the person was able to befriend others the father, moving to another area, instantly swept her away. The young woman was different in the sense she had multiple personalities, so it was easier to fix the problem by integrating the personality that suffered the symptoms of avoidant. After Integration I noticed a tremendous change, in that the person enjoyed being around people to a degree. However, this woman was intelligent and wise to the system that she set boundaries in social engagements. This is only one individual with over 70 personalities, so it made me wonder if avoidant personality disorder was proper in some cases. I have to reason that people with avoidant personality types may have a foundation that is not explored to the degree that it should be explored. The system alone and how others treat others sometimes is enough to make anyone want to avoid public. It is important to examine all aspects of the symptoms before coming to the conclusion that the person has avoidant personality disorder. Most all (rather all) individuals with a mental disorder or illness has an underlying root which in all cases is FEAR. Once an expert works through those fears dealing with one at a time moving onto the next fear, then mental illnesses is only a state of mind. It is possible to treat mentally ill, disorders with therapy alone, and is more effective if the techniques used are appropriate to the diagnose and worked properly. Not everyone with a mental illness needs medications. Paranoid Schizophrenics, Bipolar, and a few other disorders or mental illnesses in my experience needed medication. Paranoid Schizophrenias definitely should be medicated. If you do not medicate a Paranoid Schizophrenic, you are only asking for trouble. These types will kill out of their own state of mind, simply because they believe someone is trying to hurt them, when in reality they are not. Not all schizophrenics kill, but there are known cases, including the Oklahoma Bomber that has killed. Avoidant personality disorders are easy to undo without medications, simply because the root of their symptoms is fear. We can start therapeutic treatment by working with the deepest fear the person displays. Talk therapy, role-play, and a few other therapeutic strategies could do wonders for people with avoidant personality disorders. It is important to listen to these types, since the problem lies beneath the voices that speak. When a person is telling you that he or she has a problem with socialization, we know that underneath those words is a fear that was cultivated by an incident/accident at childhood. We know that this person had endured some underdevelopment and lacks education and knowledge of the so-called normal ways. This person if taught or relearned the rules and regulations of society can in time socialize without problems. If we work through the problems without burying them with medications, we are most likely going to have fewer problems.
You walk into a moderately business office sit down a chair in a well-dressed lobby and wait for your name to be announced. Finally, it comes and you are assessed by an intake worker, finally sent to a therapist a week later, and then recommended to the staff psychiatrist. In this short time, you were diagnosed with Bipolar, Depression, which is an element of bipolar, and posttraumatic stress disorder. You also have a history of Diabetes, High-Blood Pressure, and Allergies. Now the doctor is not aware of the inflammatory fiber nerve disease underlying the symptoms. You continue to visit the mental health experts complaining constantly of your symptoms, and they begin treating you like a Hypochondriasis. (Someone occupied with health issues and most times are exaggerated)…you begin feeling confused, disappointed with the therapist, and decide to go to see a physician that finds a fiber nerve disease, which proves that you complaints are valid. However, you were already given prescriptions for psychotic and depressive symptoms. You begin taking the medications and suddenly your insurance policy stops payment on the drug Effexor XR. Suddenly, you explode feeling aggressive, wanting to kill, wanting to die, wanting to harm and there is no explanation since these feelings has never occurred to this magnitude before you took the antidepressants prescribed. Now the problem has increased and you are searching desperately for an answer, yet you find nothing. What went wrong you might ask? Well, Effexor XR is given to patients with depression and bipolar symptoms. Since Effexor is said to target the brain chemicals increasing the Norepinephrine and Serotonin in the brain, it is claimed to eliminate symptoms of depression and bipolar. Now Effexor XR is notorious (once the medication is stopped abruptly) for increasing behaviors including, suicidal thinking, impulsive behaviors, violent outburst and so forth. The Prescription has caused increase in Blood making it a bad deal for patients with High-Blood Pressure. Now you went to the therapist to fix a problem and your problems has increased dramatically at it is all because of health care, mental health, medical, and so on. You start feeling that it cannot get any worse, but the doctors continue increasing your medicines prescribing Tenormin (Atenolol) for your pain and after prescribing numerous doses of inflammatory prescriptions, which lead to stomach disorders, you are now taking meds to control your stomach. Moreover, it does not stop here. Next, you are given Impramine HCL for pain, Tramadol for pain, and rotated between antidepressants finally prescribed Effexor XR again. If you are feeling alone you are not, since many times doctors, mental experts, and health care providers make this mistake excessively many times to count. It is ludicrous to go to mental health experts all to find severe complications exploding your life and you are the one to blame, when in reality these experts made a serious mistake. Since the mental health expert obviously had no choice but to eliminate Hypochondriasis, and claim that they were only searching for answers to the problem (making excuses) you finally say I am searching for another mental health expert, since you have no idea what you are doing. You go to the next office; sit, wait, and when you are called you talk to an intake worker, then a therapist, and finally a psychiatrist. You go through the same procedures wondering if these experts are smarter than the other experts you just left, and soon find yourself on Effexor XR, Impramine HCL, Tramadol, and a variety of other medications. I told you people what happen before you tell the experts, yet they ignore your cries and tell you to take your medications as prescribed. Are we fixing problems or are we adding to the many problems we face every day. Some mental diagnoses were later proven a medical problem or central nervous interruption that created a series of symptoms delusional to mental health experts, believing that the patient was mentally ill. Caught in a web of testing and despair we often fight to find a reason that our minds are tricking us into acting out of accordance to the so-called normal. The solution is right in front of them in most cases, yet everyone is turning their heads and looking for another answer.
