Ill Minds think Alike:
Some people believe
that mental illnesses are all the same. If you are diagnosed with
a mental illness then not to worry because everyone else diagnosed
is just like you. This is far removed from reality and the truth.
What is so ironic is the same people that are saying this (is often
ill them self) will often say something to the affect when a murder
takes place. ‘He is a psychopathic or sociopath. Yet the neighbor
down the road who visits every day has a mental illness and when this
person visits, or the therapist is overwrought. You do not have a
mental illness you have problems like the rest of us.
This is easier to accept
than believing that a person has a mental illness. This is nuts, since
it is only contributing to the problem. The problem with the world
is all the people seeking help are doing their job and the people
that are making excuses or in denial of mental health, illness existence
is in serious need of help. For example if Johnny visits a counselor
knowing that something is not right, he is asking for help. On the
other hand if that person sitting at the table telling the neighbor
nothing is wrong, and claims that seeing a counselor is only spending
money, then guess who is in real need of help.
The person that does
not go to a counselor or ask someone in the world for help is the
person that mentally ill more so than the common mental ill. Mental
is nothing to play around with, and since we are all different it
can be complicated to determine who is ill. I have watched as countless
of patients went to mental health experts and watched them continue
to suffer although they worked hard with the counselor to find a resolve.
The problem is that mental healths experts are more concerned about
money than the patients are most time, and believe they know it all
and the patient knows nothing most all the time.
Many therapists are
in this field of expertise and if you did a background check on the
professional, you are probably going to see this person is a mental
health potential or skip out as well. It does not take a genius to
understand mental health, but it takes many idiots to tangle the webs
of darkness. In most instances, mentally ill patients are brilliant
individuals that have difficulty managing their lives due to frequent
interruptions. Most all the patients that go to mental health experts
can talk about their problems freely searching for answers to survive.
The problem is (between
the lines of communication) lies a fountain of information that can
help both the patient and the counselor, but too many times the counselors
are entangled in their own webs, they miss out on the benefits of
helping another person out. Personally, I spent 25 years in counselor
with no results up until the last three years and then I was working
harder than the counselor to resolve my own problems was. She was
doing a portion of her job, but my strategies were succeeding hers,
and I left her behind. Now, if you see what I am saying then you will
know that anyone with a mental illness has more of an answer than
over half of the professionals in the world.
If you have, experience
and they have a piece of paper without experience, who knows more?
I often have more compassion for mentally ill patients, than I have
for the so-called normal and professionals of the world. I have watched
many suffering after begging practically for help, and very little
result came from it all. I watched as many counselors blamed the patient
for the failure, but in all truths, they had a responsibility in this
as well. Most counselors are in denial which is a mental health issue,
and many people in many professions are in denial, and this my friend
is a major cause for mental health issues around the world. Ill minds
think alike because someone is influenced while the other source is
influencing. A great source for learning and understanding is group
therapy.
