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.

Cognitive mental health disorders
Therapists around the globe are constantly searching for answers that help them understand mental illnesses. Cognitive disorders including, dementia, delirium, alcohol-induced disorders, and other related disorders are under constant studies. Most cognitive disorders listed in this article have classic denominators, including loss of memory. Most of the diagnoses are linked to disease of the brain or biological disease, or else alcoholism and related chemicals. Often people with cognitive disorders have difficulty with speech, including relating with others, and reasoning. Their judgment is often affected, and their ability to recognize is often comprehended differently than the normal mind. Often the patients suffer depression, irritation, paranoia, and other related symptoms that could easily be misdiagnosed, since bipolar has similar characteristic symptoms. Delirium includes symptoms that target the awareness, signals confusion, effects speech, loss of memory, imposes fear, stems depression, and many other symptoms that affect the patient. Physical symptoms also insult the patient. Increased heart rate, disturbance in sleep, nausea, and many other physical symptoms make it difficult for the patient to find comfort. Recent studies have shown however that medications can increase symptoms in the disorder, including strokes, heart attacks, imbalances and so forth. Dementia is a type of Alzheimer disease that causes the patient to lose memory, learning inabilities, language impairments, and so forth. AIDS stokes, heart failures, and other chronic problems may cause a person to suffer dementia. People that suffer dementia may personal hygiene incapacities, poor judgment, avoidance, personality altering, and so forth. The diagnoses can be misconstrued for several disorders, including major depressive. It is important to avoid alcohol if you are suffering with any symptoms of mental illness. Alcohol only increases the symptoms interruptions and causes more harm to the patient. Many mental ill patients will resort to alcohol and/or drugs to find a source of relief from their suffering. This is not the solution and should be avoided at all cost. Alcohol-induced disorders are classified in cognitive disorders simply because the symptoms are related, and many of the diagnoses are a direct result of substances in many cases. This is not true of all mentally ill patients. Therapists have treated many patients that have never touched alcohol or drugs. Although many counselors will try to find this as an excuse to eliminate the worst-case scenario. Alcohol induced disorders are also known as ‘Korsakoff’s Syndrome,” which affects the memory directly. Symptoms often include memory loss, denial, indifferences, sometimes-violent behaviors, and so forth. Most alcoholic or drug patients are direct link nutritional deficiencies, which often include B-Complex. It is often difficult to treat alcoholism, however it is possible. It takes the person to will their self free of the substances, acceptance is the beginning of recovery. Many patients that are alcoholics or addicts sometimes treated with medications for physical impairments. I have acknowledged obsessive medicinal deliveries, and often the medicines that are provided to the patient with trigger the alcoholism symptoms. High dosage of B-Complex is often given to patients in extensive outpatient/inpatient therapy where alcohol and drugs are the problem. If the patient is at an early stage then it is possible to treat the patient affectively. Nowadays alcoholism is affecting children, and it is time that we take a step to stop the increase of alcoholism and drug addictions, before it is too late. Therapists are constantly searching for a way to resolve the many mental illnesses today. As they study, they are finding that more problems are out there and it only slows them down, since when they find new discoveries they focus on this problem, pushing the other diagnoses to the back momentarily or else linking them together. Mental illness whether it be alcoholism or other diagnoses is not a game. There are millions of people around the globe suffering everyday and are rarely receiving the care they deserve. We all people and all of us deserve care, including (if not more so) those with mental illnesses. In the next article, we are going to discuss more severe disorders, including antisocial behaviors, obsessive-compulsive behaviors, schizoid, schizotypal, and so forth. I think it is important that we all have a basic knowledge of the many diagnoses in the world. Having a basic knowledge can help us to cope or help someone that is suffering mental illnesses.

Choices in Social Personality Development
There are various ways to establish your identity and social skills. One of your choices is to build your motivation so to have backbone to carry through the process of social and personality development. When the body and mind is stressed, it causes one to lose control and sight of his intentions to discover his identity. When you will notice that, you have developed a backbone it will lighten the load. Accordingly, you will develop confidence and self- control, which are the chief components for the self- development.

Laziness only robs you of identifying self and developing healthy social skills. Apart from developing strong discipline, it is also necessary to build self-awareness so as to have self-control over body and mind. We all need to build these innate qualities to manage the emotional responses that could lead us to disaster. One example of emotional response that holds people back is seen in the following sentence. Think of a time that you were discussing something with a friend or family member and you didn’t want to hear what they had to say. What was your response? You likely were emotionally charged. Did you act out in anger? Did you feel threatened and just suppressed your feelings?
Keep thinking. Most of us, unless we are severely emotionally disassociated has acted out in some way that we regret later. Even though a person is severely emotionally disassociated, this person will still express emotions. Our response is what determines the consequences that will be charged of for responding in such a way.
We need to develop self-awareness, as it is relevant to social and personality development. This is because loses sight of his own inner self and emotions, he cannot develop his entire human being. Self-alertness must be achieved by having an affirmative outlook towards life. It will help you take control of your emotions in almost every instance.
In accord, the key to establish self-control is to gain knowledge of your weaknesses and strengths. This will assist you with social and personality development, which you will establish a higher quality results. Self-Control is essentially important to establish a distinct identity of the self.
We all have inner strengths that help us to take control of our life. We also have choices, which enable us to decide what is best for our personal self. These choices are swayed by influences however, so we must develop self-awareness, control and self-discipline to make sure that influences will not deter our course in social and personality development.
To check your weaknesses you can conduct a self-analysis. By examining the self, you will learn something new about you while developing new ideas. It will help you figure out what you must do to identify the self and cultivate your social skills. You want to climb that social ladder now, since the future is pushing all of us to strive toward complete development in order to maintain.

Choices in Development thru Affirmation and Visualization
We all have to make choices in life. The problem is many people fail to think through problems in order to find the best solutions to resolve the issues. We must follow the critical thinking procedures that allow us to think through each problem we face. It builds our decision-making abilities. We can use the critical thinking process to solve problems, yet to make good decisions we must give additional forethought. We can use visualization to analyze the problem solving ability.
Making choices allows one to apply the model of solving problems. To become an effective decision-maker, use your critical thinking throughout the procedure and find the best choice. Evaluate your choices to consider, which solution is best used to solve your problems. Give some forethought to your choice before acting, since some issues we face takes longer time to resolve than other problems. You want to give much forethought while considering the new ideas your mind creates from your knowledge learned in the past. When you affirm and visualize that you have an active plan, execute the plan without hesitating.
It makes no sense to build a soundproof plan without putting the balls in motion. To make good decisions, consider the cause of each problem first. Once you find the cause, move to discover the effects. Weigh out the pros and cons to come across the best solution. Continue evaluating to find the pros and cons and the best solutions. Repeat the same steps until you feel confident that you have the best answer. Next, evaluate your solution. Weigh out the pros and cons again while evaluating the selected solution.
By repeating this procedure each time you need to make decisions, you can become a better decision-maker. Recollect that your decision is the eventual choice that you make, which produces positive results, or negative conclusions. The end verdict will decide the road that you will take.
For this reason, it is essential that we visualize our self-solving problems and making good decisions by analyzing the information our mind stores. Of course, you will make mistakes while you are building critical thinking and decision-making abilities, but you learn from your mistakes. Do not let them tear you down. Unconstructive thinking leads you nowhere. More willingly, negative thinking will direct you on a road of pessimistic with many problems trailing behind you. In time, you can build up self-destructive behaviours’, habits, thoughts and so forth. The repeated cycle will continue, until you decide to use your affirmation and visualization to take your mind back to a positive direction.
Using your critical thinking at the same time as following the steps to make better decisions is the start of maturing the mind. We all have inner strengths and must discover the self by continuing through the process of self-development. One of the best ways to discover your strengths is by figuring out your weaknesses. We are encouraged to do this throughout the process of self-development.
One of the most effective techniques that can assist you with creating effective visuals and affirmations is through writing. When you write down your thoughts and feelings, it often helps you to stay focus while visualizing what you feel. You can effectively find answers to your problems as well through writing. It will build you decision-making skills the more your practice. Recall, that we all make choices in life. Our choice is the final decision that determines our results. If you want to have good results, then you must work to develop the inner self through visualization and affirmation. It will only make you stronger.

Examining Self Insight and Professional Growth
Have you ever taken a long look in the mirror to see what you see? Well we all have at one time or another, while looking at your self your looking with in your self this could be you trying to find answer to a problem that you have been able to find the answers to or maybe you just want to be able to find who you want to be. There is no reason for you to feel sad or embarrassed by this we all have done it in our time it normal. We must all dig deep within our self in order to find answers that help us to improve our quality of life.
For some of us that want to make something with our life’s there are some things that we have to do, in order to be able to find our self we have to be able to understand the ways that we are thinking as well as feeling. So am going to talk about three main ways that we find who and what we are.
The first thing is self-examine this is where you go and do some soul searching and be able to find your self. Once you figured out how to self-examine, your self then you can move to the other areas like meditation this is where you learn to empty your mind and learn to relax your body. This will make it easier to be able to think more clearly as well as be able to make up your mind up with a clear out look in things; you can learn this task from books in your local stores or your local library.
Mediation is a self-teaching course if you use it in the right way it will help you when it comes to problems that you used to have a hard time dealing with it will be easier. Now you have to remember that you cannot learn this over night so take your time and really learn this as well as understand it, things will come to you more natural then before when it comes to problem solving or just be able to work out the ends of what may be upsetting you.
Subliminal learning is also a good thing to know how to use it or to be able to use it. We can use techniques, such as probing into the mind to study past events, experiences, and knowledge to see if anything is available to expand our growth. Learning from your past is very important.
You will also have to have good self-esteem in order to learn. So try to have good self-esteem when learning new things. Having a positive out look on things will help you as well. Having good self-esteem will make it easier for you to learn how to make the right discussions in life. Having good self-esteem will also make you feel better about your self. When you feel good about your self, life goes a lot easier for you.
Once you have learned all these little things then you will be able to think more clearly as well as to be able to make you your mind on what and how you want to learn and to become more professional with your learning tasks. Becoming a professional is one thing but to be able to use it wisely in the work field is another thing so all this goes together hand in hand, once you have learned this, your profession will come to you. Right alone with the other entire task your going to learn. You will learn a lot though out your life so why not learn the right way and get all you can get out of.
