Statistics of Recovery Cases For Mental Illnesses




In fact, statistical evidences actually show that among the ones getting mental illnesses, especially the serious one like Schizophrenia, generally one-third of the population of such people would eventually manage to achieve full recovery, another one-third would gain significant improvements while getting occasional relapses of such disorders, whilst the remaining rest would just get their disorders worsened day after day until no recovery is conceivably possible.



In this regard, I could tell you very frankly that the former 2/3 of the population of the ones suffering from serious mental illnesses, especially the serious one like Schizophrenia (who have either achieved full recoveries or substantial improvements), are actually the ones who have successfully overcome their own inner senses of anxieties, fears, panics, phobias and eliminated all the delusional thoughts and hallucinations all eventually by themselves, having received all the necessary external medicational and interpersonal psychotherapy helps from the others.



Lastly, what I am trying to say is that as long as there're hopes in getting improvements for one's mental disorders, one should put in the necessary efforts and work hard towards that goal of gaining more and more sanities and finally full recoveries if possible.

hello welcome to the forum and thank you for your views and opinions.
i have removed your last post with the link, i am not sure what the relevance was and it seemd more like spam. if you can justify its inclusion i will be happy to allow it to remain.

i agree whole heartedly with much of what you say, and i am pleased to know that there are other people out there that are passionate about recovery from mental illness and opposed to long term symptom management as a form of treatment.

i am one of the "fully recovered" one in three diagnosed with schizophrenia. as you have recognised in your post my recovery was of my own making outside of the psychiatric services that had previously failed me.

Thanks for your valuable feedbacks.



Well, as a summary, 
 
 
 
I'm suggesting the following as a solution to mental disorders :
 
 
 
1/3 of medicational helps + 1/3 of psychotherapies, interactive, interpersonal, emotional, communication, conselling supports from the others + 1/3 of self-determinations, self-initiatives, self-controls, self-wills and self-disciplines to think positively, rationally, realistically and practically as well as to lead a normal and healthy life
 
 
 
These are actually the advices I have obtained from many neurologists, psychiatrists, psychotherapists and psychologists as well as the very conclusions I have experienced myself.
 
 
 
Next, I must admit that it's quite arbitrary for me to do so in the first place. However, given the fact that there are more and more people nowadays, especially the ones having the mental disorders who would tend to rely heavlily, and if not completely, but at the same time, rather ignorantly upon medications as their sole and only means of dealing with their mental disorders, hence, by assigning the numerical proportion of '1/3' to each of those 3 variables for that 'equation' I'm just trying to convey a message to the intended readers that such factors as external psychotherapies, interactive / interpersonal, emotional / moral supports from the others as well as self-controls / self-efforts to think positively, they are just fairly as important as the medications when it comes to dealing with mental disorders.
 
 
 
Lastly, I hope that the information given will be relevant and useful to the intended readers. Thank you.
