mental disorders are real illnesses such as cancer or cardiovascular disease: mood disorders (depression and others), schizophrenia and other psychotic disorders, anxiety disorders, panic attacks and personality disorders, severe eating disorders (including anorexia nervosa, which only rarely develops following a diet. It is not a whim led by fashion, is a serious and often deadly disease! The form of the disorder may be affected from the social context, of course, increases in certain contexts such as the potential for abuse, sexual trauma and violence that often the trigger, but you get sick to risk death for a size 38).
These diseases have in common the fact that people who suffer from it can not always control their thoughts well, can sometimes suffer from visual hallucinations, delusions or auditory: in these moments become "psychotic." Some people seem expressionless and showed no emotion. Others seem to have full control instead of their skills as if they were sick. Mental ill health should not be confused with mental retardation, which is determined by a decrease in intellectual ability manifested from birth to natural causes. The mentally ill are provided with a normal intelligence and often if you do not develop any symptoms to adolescence and early adulthood.
The disease comes and goes, some people get sick in an episodic way, other almost constantly. Others suffer from one major crisis, and some more episodes over the years, others still remain sick throughout their life.
But it is a disease.
