 WHAT IS MENTAL ILLNESS

Mental illnesses are health conditions involving changes in emotion, thinking or behavior (or
a combination of these). Mental illnesses can be associated with distress and/or problems
functioning in social, work or family activities.

Mental illness is common. In any given year

 More than one in five adults in the U.S. has a diagnosable mental disorder.
 One in 20 adults has a serious mental illness.
 One in six adults has a substance use disorder (including alcohol use disorder).

Half of all chronic mental illness begins by age 14.

Mental illness is treatable. The vast majority of individuals with mental illness continue to
function in their daily lives.

Mental Health involves effective functioning in daily activities resulting in:

 Productive activities (such as in work, school or caregiving).

 Healthy relationships.
 Ability to adapt to change and cope with adversity.

Mental Illness refers collectively to all diagnosable mental disorders — health conditions
involving:

 Significant changes in thinking, emotion and/or behavior.

 Distress and/or problems functioning in social, work or family activities.

Mental health is the foundation for emotions, thinking, communication, learning, resilience,
hope and self-esteem. Mental health is also key to relationships, personal and emotional well-
being and contributing to community or society. Mental health is a component of overall
well-being. It can influence by physical health.

Many people who have a mental illness do not want to talk about it. But mental illness is
nothing to be ashamed of. It is a medical condition, just like heart disease or diabetes. And
mental health conditions are treatable. Mental illness does not discriminate; it can affect
anyone regardless of your age, gender, geography, income, social status, race, ethnicity,
religion/spirituality, sexual orientation, background or other aspect of cultural identity. While
mental illness can occur at any age, three-fourths of all mental illness begins by age 24.

Mental illnesses take many forms. Some are mild and only interfere in limited ways with
daily life, such as some phobias (abnormal fears). Other mental health conditions are so
severe that a person may need care in a hospital. Similar to other medical illnesses, the
optimal ways to provide care depend on the illness and the severity of its impact.

7
DIAGNOSIS

Mental health conditions are treatable and improvement is possible. Many people with mental
health conditions return to full functioning. Some mental illness is preventable.

It is not always clear when a problem with mood or thinking has become serious enough to
be a mental health concern. Sometimes, for example, a low or depressed mood is normal,
such as when a person experiences the loss of a loved one. But if that depressed mood
continues to cause distress or gets in the way of normal functioning, the person may benefit
from professional care. Family or friends may recognize changes or problems that a person
doesn’t see in themselves.

Some mental illnesses can be related to or mimic a medical condition. For example,
depressive symptoms can relate to a thyroid condition. Therefore, a mental health diagnosis
often involves a full health evaluation including a physical exam. This may include blood
work and/or neurological tests.

People of diverse cultures and backgrounds may express mental health conditions differently.
For example, some are more likely to come to a health care professional with concerns
about physical symptoms that are caused by a mental health condition. Some cultures view
and describe mental health conditions in different ways from most doctors in the U.S.

Stigma around mental illness and treatment prevents many people from seeking needed
treatment.

TREATMENT AND SELF-HELP

Mental health treatment is based upon an individualized plan developed collaboratively with
a mental health clinician and an individual (and family members if the individual desires). It
may include psychotherapy (talk therapy), medication or other treatments. Often a
combination of therapy and medication is most effective. Complementary and alternative
therapies are also increasingly being used.

Self-help and support can be very important to an individual’s coping, recovery and well-
being. Lifestyle changes, such as good nutrition, exercise, and adequate sleep with good sleep
hygiene can support mental health and recovery. A comprehensive treatment plan may
include individual actions (for example, lifestyle changes, support groups or exercise) that
enhance recovery and well-being.

Primary care clinicians, psychiatrists and other mental health clinicians help individuals and
families understand mental illnesses and what they can do to control or cope with symptoms
in order to improve health, wellness and function.

8
 WHAT IS REHABILITATION

Rehabilitation is defined as “a set of interventions designed to optimize functioning and

reduce disability in individuals with health conditions in interaction with their environment”.

Put simply, rehabilitation helps a child, adult or older person to be as independent as possible
in everyday activities and enables participation in education, work, recreation and meaningful
life roles such as taking care of family. It does so by working with the person and their family
to address underlying health conditions and their symptoms, modifying their environment to
better suit their needs, using assistive products, educating to strengthen self-management, and
adapting tasks so that they can be performed more safely and independently. Together, these
strategies can help an individual; overcome difficulties with thinking, seeing, hearing,
communicating, eating or moving around.

SOME EXAMPLES OF REHABILITATION INCLUDE:

 speech and language training to improve a person’s communication after a brain

injury;
 physical exercise training to improve muscle strength, voluntary movements and
balance in persons with stroke or Parkinson disease;
 modifying an older person’s home environment to improve their safety and
independence at home and to reduce their risk of falls;
 educating a person with heart disease on how to exercise safely;
 preparing a person with an amputation to be able to use a prosthetic and making,
fitting and refitting the prosthesis;
 positioning and splinting techniques to assist with skin healing, reduce swelling, and
to regain movement after burn surgery;
 prescribing medicine to reduce spasticity for a child with cerebral palsy;
 psychological therapies for a person with emotional distress following a spinal cord
injury;
 Social skills training for persons with schizophrenia, autism spectrum disorders or
disorders of intellectual disability.
 training a person with vision loss in the use of a white cane; and
 working with a patient in intensive care to improve their breathing, prevent
complications and speed their recovery after critical illness

Rehabilitation is highly person-centred, meaning that the interventions selected for each
individual are targeted to their goals and preferences. Rehabilitation can be provided in many
different places, such as inpatient or outpatient hospital settings, outpatient physio- or
occupational therapy practices, and community settings such as an individual’s home, a
school or a workplace.

The rehabilitation workforce is made up of different health workers, including but not limited
to physiotherapists, occupational therapists, speech and language therapists and audiologists,

9
orthotists and prosthetists, clinical psychologists, physical medicine and rehabilitation
doctors, and rehabilitation nurses. Many other health workers, such as general practitioners,
surgeons, and community health workers may also play an important role in a person’s
rehabilitation.

THE BENEFITS OF REHABILITATION

Rehabilitation can reduce the impact of a broad range of health conditions, including diseases
(acute or chronic), illnesses or injuries. It complements other health interventions, such as
medical and surgical interventions, helping to facilitate recovery and achieve the best
outcome possible.

Rehabilitation helps to minimize or slow down the disabling effects of chronic health
conditions, such as cardiovascular disease, cancer and diabetes by equipping people with self-
management strategies and the assistive products they require, or by addressing pain or other
complications. As such, it contributes to healthy ageing.

Rehabilitation is an investment, with cost benefits for both the individuals and society. It can
help to avoid costly hospitalization, reduce hospital length of stay, and prevent re-admissions.
As rehabilitation also enables individuals to engage in or return to work and employment, or
to remain independent at home, it minimizes the need for financial or caregiver support.

10
 CHRONIC SCHIZOPHRENIA

Schizophrenia is a chronic brain disorder. When schizophrenia is active, symptoms can

include delusions, hallucinations, disorganized speech, trouble with thinking and lack of
motivation.

Research has shown that schizophrenia affects men and women fairly equally but may have
an earlier onset in males. Rates are similar around the world. People with schizophrenia are
more likely to die younger than the general population, largely because of high rates of co-
occurring medical conditions, such as heart disease and diabetes.

DEFINITIONS

 Psychosis refers to a set of symptoms characterized by a loss of touch with reality due
to a disruption in the way that the brain processes information. When someone
experiences a psychotic episode, the person’s thoughts and perceptions are disturbed,
and the individual may have difficulty understanding what is real and what is not.
 Delusions are fixed false beliefs held despite clear or reasonable evidence that they
are not true. Persecutory (or paranoid) delusions, when a person believes they are
being harmed or harassed by another person or group, are the most common.
 Hallucinations are the experience of hearing, seeing, smelling, tasting, or feeling
things that are not there. They are vivid and clear with an impression similar to
normal perceptions. Auditory hallucinations, or “hearing voices,” are the most
common in schizophrenia and related psychotic disorders.
 Disorganized thinking and speech refer to thoughts and speech that are jumbled or
do not make sense. For example, the person may switch from one topic to another or
respond with an unrelated topic in conversation. The symptoms are severe enough to
cause substantial problems with normal communication.
 Disorganized or abnormal motor behavior are movements that can range from
childlike silliness to unpredictable agitation or can manifest as repeated movements
without purpose. When the behavior is severe, it can cause problems in the
performance of activities of daily life. It includes catatonia, when a person appears as
if in a daze with little movement or response to the surrounding environment.

SYMPTOMS

When the disease is active, it can be characterized by episodes in which the person is unable
to distinguish between real and unreal experiences. As with any illness, the severity, duration
and frequency of symptoms can vary; however, in persons with schizophrenia, the incidence
of severe psychotic symptoms often decreases as the person becomes older. Not taking
medications as prescribed, the use of alcohol or illicit drugs, and stressful situations tend to
increase symptoms. Symptoms fall into three major categories:

11
  Positive symptoms (those abnormally present): Hallucinations, such as hearing
voices or seeing things that do not exist, paranoia and exaggerated or distorted
perceptions, beliefs and behaviors.
 Negative symptoms (those abnormally absent): Impaired emotional expression
(affective flattening), decreased speech output (alogia), reduced desire to have social
contact (asociality), reduced drive to initiate and persist in self-directed purposeful
activities (avolition), and decreased experience of pleasure (anhedonia).
 Disorganized symptoms: Confused and disordered thinking and speech, trouble with
logical thinking, and sometimes bizarre behavior or abnormal movements.

Cognition is another area of functioning that is affected in schizophrenia leading to problems

with attention, concentration, and memory, and to declining educational performance.

Symptoms of schizophrenia usually first appear in early adulthood and must persist for at
least six months for a diagnosis to be made. Men often experience initial symptoms in their
late teens or early 20s while women tend to show first signs of the illness in their 20s and
early 30s. More subtle signs may be present earlier, including troubled relationships, poor
school performance and reduced motivation.

TREATMENT

Though there is no cure for schizophrenia, many patients under treatment do well with
minimal symptoms. A variety of antipsychotic medications are effective in reducing the
psychotic symptoms present in the acute phase of the illness, and they also help reduce the
potential for future acute episodes and their severity. Psychological treatments such as
cognitive behavioural therapy or supportive psychotherapy may reduce symptoms and
enhance function. Other treatments are aimed at reducing stress, supporting employment
and improving social skills.

Treatment can help many people with schizophrenia lead highly productive and rewarding
lives. As with other chronic illnesses, some patients do extremely well while others continue
to be symptomatic and need support and assistance.

After the symptoms of schizophrenia are controlled, various types of therapy should continue
to help people manage the illness and improve their lives. Therapy and psychosocial supports
can help people learn social skills, cope with stress, identify early warning signs of relapse
and prolong periods of remission. Because schizophrenia typically strikes in early adulthood,
individuals with the disorder often benefit from rehabilitation to help develop life-
management skills, complete vocational or educational training, and hold a job. For example,
supported employment programs have been found to help people with schizophrenia
achieve self-sufficiency. These programs provide people with severe mental illness
competitive jobs in the community.

12
 WHAT IS CASE HISTORY

A case history basically refers to a file containing relevant information pertaining to an

individual client or group. Case histories are maintained by a broad range of professional
organizations including those in the fields of psychiatry, psychology, healthcare, and social
work.

According to the Merriam-Webster Dictionary, the formal definition of case histories is

records (or files) containing relevant information pertaining to clients' environments and
history of services. This information is useful in many different fields for the purposes of
illustration and case analysis.

Collins English Dictionary provides a somewhat similar definition of case histories. This
source states that case histories are records of past problems or events that clients have
experienced. It goes on to say that case histories are most often used by professionals in such
fields as medicine, psychology, and sociology.

TYPICAL INFORMATION CONTAINED IN CASE HISTORIES

The type of information contained in case histories may vary depending on the organization
that is maintaining the records. For example, while a medical clinic will need to include in-
depth medical information about its clients in their case histories, social workers may only
need to include more generalized medical information (if any at all).

Instead, they may need more in-depth information pertaining to such things as the client's
history of services, client investigations, or counseling sessions involving the client. In any
case, some of the most common types of information often included in case histories are as
follows:

 Basic Statistical Data (Client's name, age, sex, address, phone number, occupation,
marital status, and client ID number)
 Client's History of Services
 Investigations Pertaining to Client's Case
 Investigation Outcomes
 Past and Present Treatments and/or Counseling Sessions
 History of Illnesses
 History of Complaints and Their Resolutions
 History of Referrals
 Common Methods Used to Gather Information

There are essentially three methods used to gather information for initial case history files.

INTERVIEWS- By interviewing first-time clients, organizations can gather basic

information pertaining to clients' concerns and lifestyles. They can also determine whether or
not clients have used the services of similar organizations, and if they have, they can
encourage clients to release this information to them to add to their case histories.

13
QUESTIONNAIRES- Standardized questionnaires ask many of the same questions that
would be asked during a face-to-face interview. This approach is great for organizations that
have little spare time to sit and converse with clients. The disadvantage of this method is that
some issues may be overlooked.

COMBINATION- Combining these two methods is perhaps the best way to gather data for
case histories. When organizations use a combination approach, clients are better able to fully
explain their histories, and there is little chance of overlooking essential information.

Maintaining complete case histories is an important aspect of providing quality services to

clients. A complete case history can help organizations in many different fields determine the
best way to serve clients now and in the future.

History of present illness

According to the client’s mother She was born like other normal child. She was very good in
studies and that is why she got scholarship from school (spin day inter college) from class
one to four. She used to get along well with everyone at home as well. We live in a joint
family. Everyone do job. She stay at home after school. She used to look after her younger
brothers and sisters. When her uncle and aunt left their children behind, she used to look after
them too. But when she was in class 7, she had a fight with three boys in school. They used to
trouble her often. Like stealing pencils, bread pull etc. She complain about them at home
again and again, but everyone at home do job, That’s why no one paid attention that these
things keep happened because they are children, but when she started getting very upset,
Then one day she (mother) complained to the principal about those children in school. but
one of them was from school time. His name was Abhijeet. He started troubling her. You
think you are very smart, etc. She used to get upset about him at home also. Slowly, her
behavior started changing. She started saying that he has started following us till the house.
He will kill me. She stayed awake at night. She was afraid that he might come. She would not
sleep even after a lot of persuasion. She started talking nonsense about the teacher and said
that she too had along with him. It seemed that he would kill her but no one came. Due to all
these problems, we took her to Dr. J.K. Trivedi on 25/11/99 who told us that she has started
developing a mental illness called Schizophrenia. At that time the doctor gave her Respidon
medicine which helped her a lot. Slowly her condition started changing. The doctor also said
that now she is getting better but in the meantime she went to her aunt's house. Perhaps some
medicine was missed there because on coming home from there she started complaining
about headache. Gradually the headache increased and she would say that her head is
spinning and she feels dizzy. Again a voice started coming that he will kill me. She used to
scream and shout a lot that he is coming and will kill me. Her condition had worsened more

15
than before. She was given a medicine due to which there was a lot of pain in the eyes. But
she used to remain normal but the pain was so much that the medicine was stopped after
asking the doctor. Then she started saying that her hands and legs were paining and
trembling. Due to this, she was taken to an orthopedic doctor. He told that there is calcium
deficiency in her. Due to eye problem, she was taken to Dr. Shashi Rai 2 years ago. This
problem was cured by his medicine, but the sound did not stop coming. Dr. Trivedi again
prescribe medicine, but the problem increased day by day. Due to this, problems started
arising among the family members. Whenever her brother’s friend come home, she would go
to talk to him. She would talk about random things which had no meaning, due to which she
felt [Link] was a growing problem in the family because of this. My husband used to
work outside and I also used to work. When we returned home from office. We used to get
even more angry after listening to her nonsense. We used to scold her saying that you have
gone mad. She used to sleep with me at night. But she would get up frequently. She would go
to the bathroom and keep drinking water, which would not allow us to sleep properly. Then
we told her to sleep alone. Since then she has been sleeping alone since we stopped the
doctor's treatment. Mother used to do most of the medicine work herself.

According to client Nowadays she takes her bath. She also does the household chores but
not properly. She gets annoyed over small things and starts crying. She drinks water
repeatedly and goes to the bathroom. Whenever anybody talks, she keeps interrupting. She is
not able to understand what we say. Even today she is afraid that the boy will beat her. Some
time ago she got herself enrolled in a sewing and embroidery school. But there she was told
to tell about the people and ask them to come home. Then the teacher said that it would not
be right with the children here. Therefore she stopped going.

 MY EXPERIENCE
It was my direct interaction with the clients that practically I experiences the life of disable
people wo are suffering from some condition that needs love, care and respect in the real
world. It provided me the most valuable and lasting life lessons and skills.

The classes at NAV- UDAY MANSIK SWASTHYA SEWA SANSTHAN was not only
intellectually enriching but also instilled core values in me that I will always be grateful for.
The IPD sessions conducted by the esteemed psychiatrists at the institute helped me develop
a solid psychological aptitude and become well-versed in handling clients across different
categories. The OPD session on Tuesday with D. Shashi Rai provided me a unique
opportunity for me to observe client closely and gain a through understanding of the
technique used in this field. Online classes by Dr. Divya Prasad on DBT was really usefull
and increase my knowledge that may help me in future.

I’m grateful for the friendship that I formed and the memorable times spent with like- minded
individuals whose company I thoroughly enjoyed.

Thank you once again to everyone who contributed to this wonderful experiences. I’m filled
with gratitude and insight that will help me become a better person for a brighter future.
