Psychological health
A mental illness is a health problem that significantly affects how a person feels, thinks, behaves, and interacts with other people. It is diagnosed according to standardised criteria. The term mental disorder is also used to refer to these health problems. Every person has the right to decent and productive work in conditions of freedom, equity, security and human dignity. Achieving good mental health problems for peoples is right and also this is very challenging. Psychological and mental health problems not only affect the individual but also have various significant impacts the entire community. Psychological health problems can affect an individual functional and working capacity in numerous ways. Depending on an individual age at the onset of a mental health problem, his or her working capacity can be significantly reduced. In the workplace, this can lead to absenteeism, require sick leave, and reduce productivity.
A mental health problem also interferes with how a person thinks, feels, and behaves, but to a lesser extent than a mental illness. Mental health problems are more common and include the mental ill health that can be experienced temporarily as a reaction to the stresses of life. Mental health problems are less severe than mental illnesses, but may develop into a mental illness if they are not effectively dealt with. A psychotic episode may involve delusions, such as false beliefs of persecution, guilt, or grandeur. It may involve hallucinations, where the person sees, hears, smells, or tastes things that are not there. Psychotic episodes can be threatening and confusing to other people. Such behaviour is difficult to understand for people who are not familiar with it.
What to do and where to go for help:
Psychological illness is mostly denied and discriminated against by several peoples. The more considering hospitalization because of mental illness should be highly stigmatized. Mostly this not happen until someone becomes ill and some serious and avoidable problems.
Mental health is always an excellent topic. Although this has changed some in recent years with the emergence of positive psychology, this remains the case that far less attention has been paid to clarifying what constitutes psychological health than psychopathology. If a long term psychological health was essentially defined in terms of the absence of psychopathology. In recognizing this point, however, it must also be acknowledge that understanding psychological health is quite tricky and complicated. Consider it this way: It is much more straightforward to answer the question of what is a healthy liver than what is a healthy person. The latter feels (and is) much more value-laden and culturally bound. But that does not mean we are paralyzed and the goal of this blog is to help readers think more explicitly about what it is that constitutes psychological health. There are several terms which are directly and indirectly related to mental health are evolving and still subject to much debate. Terms are often used interchangeably which can be confusing as well as inaccurate.
Mental Health:
It’s very difficult to cover all the aspects associated with mental illness. The meaning of being mentally healthy is subject to many interpretations rooted in value judgements, which may vary in different cultures. It should not be seen as the absence of illness, but more to do with a form of subjective well-being, when individuals feel that they are coping, fairly in control of their lives, able to face challenges, and take on responsibility. Mental health is a state of successful performance of mental function, resulting in productive activities, fulfilling relationships with other people and the ability to adapt to change and to cope with adversity specific to the individual’s culture.
Mental Health Problems:
There are mild problems with huge majority of mental health, though distressing to the person at the time, and if recognized can be alleviated by support and perhaps some professional help. Work and home life need not be too adversely affected if the appropriate help is obtained. In the situation analyses, the terms mental health problems and mental health difficulties are used interchangeably.
Mental Illness:
Mental illness refers collectively to all diagnosable mental health problems at clinical level that is where a degree of professional intervention and treatment is required. Generally, the term refers to more serious problems. The major psychotic illnesses, such as endogenous depression, schizophrenia and manic depressive psychosis would fall in this category and would be seen less often in the workplace. Mental illness is sometimes referred to as psychiatric disability. This term is used primarily in the United States.
Mental Disorders:
Mental disorders can the health conditions which are characterized by alterations in thinking, mood or behaviour or combination thereof and associated with distress and /or impaired functioning. Mental disorders are associated with increased mortality rates. The risk of death among individuals with a mental disorder is several times higher than in the population as a whole.
Mental Health Promotion:
Mental health promotion is a multidimensional concept that implies the creation of individual, social, and environmental conditions, which enable optimal overall psychological development. It is especially focussed, among other concerns, on personal autonomy, adaptability, and ability to cope with stressors, self-confidence, social skills, social responsibility, and tolerance. Prevention of mental disorders could be one of its outcomes.
Mental Health Prevention:
Prevention is based on specific knowledge about causal relationships between an illness and risk factors. Prevention results in measurable outcomes. Within the context of the workplace, prevention is concerned with taking action to reduce or eliminate stressors. Prevention and promotion are overlapping and related activities. Promotion can be simultaneously preventative and vice versa.
Post Traumatic Stress Disorder:
PTSD or post-traumatic stress disorder can occur as an acute disorder soon after a trauma or have a delayed onset in which symptoms occur more than 6 months after the trauma. It can occur at any age and can follow a natural disaster such as flood or fire or a man-made disaster such as war, imprisonment, assault, or rape.
Rehabilitation:
A process aimed at enabling persons with disabilities to regain and maintain their optimal physical, sensory, intellectual, psychiatric, and/ or social functional levels, by providing them with tools to change their lives towards a higher level of independence. Rehabilitation may include measures to provide and/ or restore functions or compensate for the loss or absence of a function or for a functional limitation. The rehabilitation process does not involve initial medical care. It includes a wide range of measures and activities from more basic and general rehabilitation to goal-oriented activities, for instance vocational rehabilitation.
