Although there have been many advances in the field of mental health during the past quarter century, with the mental health professionals acknowledging more and more mental illness and how they develop, one of the aspects of mental health is still not widely discussed . This is the true impact of physical illness in mental health.
In fact, only a few people who do not even consider the field of mental illness and physical can be done when it comes to mental health. For example, when you get cold, you might be a little 'irritated, and most of us would have a feature that we do not feel good, that the irritability.
But it goes further than that. When we do not feel well - even if you feel bad, just a common cold - we also tend to feel a little 'blue'. Things that would not be a big thing in our lives become a little bigger. We do not respond or react as we would normally.
Fortunately, the cold does not last long, and we will return to being "normal." But what if the cold has become a long illness, or even a deadly disease? How does it affect our mental health? It affects every area of your life including personal relationships, social interactions, work, and even religion and spirituality. Of these diseases, it is not so much a matter of not feeling well, physically. There is no question of feeling good spiritual sense.
Naturally, when faced with long-term illnesses, no matter how mild or severe they are, they experience a range of emotions such as anger, anxiety and sadness. We believe that our bodies let us down. We feel we have no control. You may be lonely or feel that people do not understand what we are experiencing.
The biggest concerns from a perspective of mental health when it comes to long-term illness, depression and anxiety. It is not uncommon for a person with a physical long-term experience of these conditions. However, it is often overlooked and untreated. This, of course, can be very dangerous, and that research has shown that even have a negative impact on the process of physical recovery.
These days, doctors are more aware of how physical ailments affect our mental health, and they are in search of signs of anxiety or depression in their patients. However, in most cases, the doctor will be aware that there is a problem if it is open and honest with them about their feelings and what happens in your life.
All in all, it's totally fine and totally normal to feel a little 'blue when it was under the weather. But when it comes to long-term illness, you will need to be able to identify depression and anxiety. When you see these signs, tell your doctor and get treatment. Do not try to "go it alone" and not assume that "pass."
