Answer by Tobey
Its more about finding out your faulty believes that are negative and put yourself and your life down and find positive, truer ways to look at things.

Answer by Charles & Judy C
Cognitive therapy will re-direct your thinking toward what is reality. It stems from a latin word which means “to know”. And in fact, it will help you to know the world around you and relate to it in a realistic manner. The questions are a good way for the therapist to know how you perceive things and its really helpful.

What Are Some Issues in Mental Health?

Question by andrewgillen72: what are some issues in mental health?

Best answer:

Answer by lucky13724
a serious problem is the issue of hospitalization. there are people with serious psychological disorders who are also their own legal guardians. they choose whether or not they want to take their medicine and the power that psychologists have is very limited. if a schizophrenic patient goes off their meds, there isn’t really anything the doctor can do until the patient deteriorates and either hurts them self or someone else. to hospitalize someone like this is not cut and dry. there is a whole list of criteria that the patient has to meet before they are admitted, which is a good thing, we don’t’ want to be putting everyone in the hospital, but i think of all the tragedies that could be prevented if we could hospitalize certain patients before they get into trouble. like the schizophrenic mother in my home town who went off her meds and ended up killing her 3 year old. or the depressed college student who killed a girl he liked b/c she wouldn’t go out with him (see the Tatiana tarasoff case)
