I have experienced mental health issues in my family for 26 years.....
you are talking utter rubbish. I not only correct you. I say you are totally false. You do not know what you are talking about, You no not even begin to understand mental illness. Mental illness is a disease in the brain caused by physical factors.
Thankyou for your open attitude.
Schizophrenia is a weakness, a genetic weakness which means patients who are in
a stressful environment often go on to show this illness. LSD can cause schizophrenia
as well as it is a dopamine drug.
Now imagine this. We are built with systems in our brains that compensate for stress
or pressure but only to an extent. People who learn to stress relief and handle these
break points are much less likely to develop the illness than those who have no stratagies
at all.
Families that repress emotions and do not recognise the emotional inter play, are most
vulnerable. So you valiant are probably from one such family.
Now these are simple provable facts. I see you are in denial and want to say nothing
can be done to compensate for these weaknesses. Well there is a lot you can do.
Once schizophrenia is displayed probably there is no way back.
It would not surprise me if part of this is developmental in early childhood, depending
on the environment the children grow up in, feeling loved and open to express whatever
they like with boundaries, or is a repressed and unexpressive environment where each
feels lost and alone. I know both environments, and I know which one works.
And this matters to me, because the statistical chance of serious mental issues in my
kids is high. But among my wider family, the ones with better social openness and caring
skills did much better. One family was totally devastated with 2 kids totally disabled and
one very withdrawn.
So just to reiterate, in this world we have one shot and caring and growing, so let us do
it with love and in Christ with an open heart. Those who are closed down and shut out
literally stand little chance in this life or the next.
