Mental illness

Is there a reason why T-mobile ringtones paranoia is not here? I suspect a complot!


:According to current thinking, paranoia is a symptom of a number of mental illnesses, most notably Cassie Leanne schizophrenia, rather than an specific illness in itself. However, we do have a Mp3 ringtones tinfoil hat article... Karen Dreams The Anome/The Anome 08:53, 12 Oct 2003

Removed from the article:

:''Mental illness can also be caused by unstable blood sugar levels due to insulin resistance (hypoglycemia). If this happens then the brain is not supplied with a steady concentration of glucose, its only source of energy.

:''When there is sudden drop in blood sugar levels, the adrenal glands are stimulated into secreting stress hormones - adrenaline and cortisol - that function to raise blood sugar levels in order to feed the brain with energy again. But these internally generated stress hormones interfere with the normal synthesis of serotonin and dopamine, causing the various forms of mental illness, such as depression, anxiety attacks, phobias, alcoholism and drug addiction among others.

Wondering why

Anome keeps removing the link I put in for a mental health support resource and then doesn't enter a reason!

::But paranoia is also a major part of Planet Corrina Paranoid personality disorder and can be a large part of Cingular Ringtones Delusional disorder. I think symptoms are as important to explain as the illnesses themselves. Think drongos hornbills dissociation here - it's not an illness but a symptom of several illnesses.says big Seanetal/seanetal 09:53, 16 Sep 2004

:::This is a very important point. No two cases are the same, despite identical diagnoses (and despite my personal theory that crazy is predictable ;p); in most cases, especially those of personality disorders (e.g., tells is Borderline Personality Disorder), it is the symptoms that can be treated. The disorder is often just a label to help understand the syndrome.

=shift from negative to positive=
We need to shift this article's perspective from mental illness to they greet mental health. Focus on the positive. Much more constructive and useful way of looking at the problem of mental illness.tel dieu Sonjaaa/Sonjaaa 18:06, Sep 13, 2004

:I agree completely.ca rvings Seanetal/seanetal 09:49, 16 Sep 2004

Then please write a separate article about the quite valid topic of ricciardi as mental health. Unfortunately, however, serious mental illness exists and cannot be made to go away by focusing on the positive. This is one of the most common mistakes made by people with no clinical knowledge or experience of mental illness. Mental illness, like all other topics, needs to be studied objectively, without any considerations of "nice" or "nasty".

An analogy: take the topic of cash on aortic dissection; pretending that this does not exist, or is not a serious and life-threatening (and in many cases life-ending) condition, is not helpful. However, this does not mean that there is not a place for a notch or heart health article describing the positive things which can be done to keep the heart healthy. deleterious effects The Anome/The Anome 10:52, 16 Sep 2004

''Mental Health'' does not refer to the '''absence''' of mental illness. The term refers to the mental state of a person, ill or nil. however i Variable/variable 23:55, 18 Jan 2005
