Here is the good news – mental health is getting more attention from various governments around the world and as a result more mentally ill people have a better chance of a better lifestyle. As soon as someone around you begins to develop the symptoms of mental disorder, it is very important that you consult a mental health care provider and get help for the patient. Getting the right course of treatment helps to improve the condition of a person. In some cases, the patient might be able to recover from the illness which is a great achievement for all concerned.

When it comes to mental health treatment, community treatments are considered to be much more beneficial than hospital treatments. Obviously, psychological treatments are considered to be the most beneficial for people suffering from depression and anxiety disorders, whereas medications are considered to be more suitable for people suffering from mental illness.

PSA Campaign for Mental Health Problems and Awareness – For more info visit newsinfusion.com Rockville, MD, June 1, 2010 — According to a national survey by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) there are an estimated 9.8 million adults aged 18 or older living with serious mental illness. Among adults, the prevalence of serious mental illness is highest in the 18 to 25 age group, yet this age group is also the least likely to receive services or counseling for mental health issues. To help address this problem SAMHSA and The Advertising Council launched a new series of national public service announcements (PSAs) designed to encourage, educate and inspire young adults (18-25 years old) to step up and support friends and family they know are experiencing a mental health problem. The importance of this effort is underscored by the new 2009 HealthStyles Survey, a collaborative effort by SAMHSA and Porter Novelli, which reveals that almost three-quarters (72 percent) of young adults between the ages of 18 and 24 believe that a person with mental illness would improve if given treatment and support. The study, however also shows that far fewer young adults (33 percent) believe that a person can eventually recover. Other findings include: * Less than half (40 percent) of Americans believe a person with mental illness can be as successful at work as others. * While almost two-thirds (65 percent) of young adults who know someone with a mental illness believe that treatment can help people with mental …

Question by Israel Lover †-pray4revival-†: Please read all the details before you respond. Then tell me, Who hurt who, and how?
A saw a question a short time ago asking about marriage for a 9 year old, and everyone said she was to young, and I agree that 9 is to young to marry. But it did remind me of a news article I read a few years ago about a woman that was suing a mental health hospital for her twin sister being so messed up.
Here are the details….
They were identical twins, same interests, same hobbies, liked the same guys, exactly that same. From the time they were 7 till they were 13, both were molested by a man next door. Nether knew the other was, they each thought it was a secret, one that even the other twin did not know, and they each kept it a secret.. The man never tried to have actual sex with ether, he only touched them and wanted them to enjoy the pleasures that they can have by touching themselves and letting others. When they were 13, he was caught with one, but the other claimed that he never hurt her.
The one that he was caught with spent years being told that she had suffered some great tragedy and horrors that many people can not even imagine. After 20 years of “counseling” she is now a permanent resident at a “mental heath center” because she is terrified of men. She panics every time she sees a man.
The twin that was not “counseled” was fine, She is a collage grad, mastered in law and is now a lawyer, has a family, a nice house, and is happy.
You tell me, Who hurt who, and how?
I am not saying that i think people should be allowed to to molest children.
I am simply asking a question and giving the information to explain why I ask it.
