Stats Of Mental Illness In Pakistan.
80 million pakistani's suffering from mental illness problems:
Renowned Parapsychologist, Hypnotherapist and Spiritual healer Dr Ayesha Ali said that around 80 million Pakistanis were suffering from physiological, neurotic disorder which results in spiritual, physical, mental and emotional illness all over the country.
Pakistan’s 59.7 per cent of the population consists of young people, who were not receiving equal opportunities in education, health, employment and lifestyle according to the international standards, causing distress and anxiety in young population of the country, said Dr Ayesha in addressing the press conference in National Press Club (NPC) Islamabad here on Sunday.
Dr Ayesha announced, “We would inaugurate the first Mental Health Institute and Treatment Centre (MHITC) of Pakistan in scenic land of nature in Nathiagali of Abbottabad district (KP) on May 22, 2017 to provide the facilities of psychological and mental health to the people of the region”.
She said that already half an acre of land had been acquired for this project to initiate this great cause for serving humanity and providing treatment to the common masses.
Dr Ayesha said that the institute would work on two different components. First, providing training to the newcomers for their capacity building and second, providing treatment to the patients in the hospital.
She said that the state of the art institution was to be equipped with all modern facilities including the trained staff to treat people suffering from psychological and mental diseases in MHITC.
“We would provide them free LTTCP Therapy treatment to our patient according to the eligibility in MHITC Abbottabad,” she said.
Dr Ayesha informed the media person, “We would introduce the ‘Life Changing Package’ to disabled children by providing them modern education facilities including all other life facilities for changing the life of at least 10 children in each phase from a humble background. These projects would be initiated from Lahore”.
Psychiatric Rehabilitation
Psychiatric rehabilitation, also known as psychsocial rehabilitation, and sometimes simplified to psych rehab by providers, is the process of restoration of community functioning and well-being of an individual diagnosed in mental health or mental or emotional disorder and who may be considered to have a psychiatric disability.
Psychiatric rehabilitation is not a practice but a field of academic study or discipline, similar to social work or political science; other definitions may place it as a specialty of community rehabilitation or physical medicine and rehabilitation. It is aligned with the community support development of the National Institute on Mental Health begun in the 1970s, and is marked by a rigorous tradition of research, training and technical assistance, and information dissemination regarding a critical population group (e.g., psychiatric disability) in the US and worldwide.The field is responsible for developing and testing new models of community service for this population group
What Causes Mental Disorder
What causes mental disorders?
There is no single cause for mental illness. A number of factors can contribute to risk for mental illness, such as
- Your genes and family history
- Your life experiences, such as stress or a history of abuse, especially if they happen in childhood
- Biological factors such as chemical imbalances in the brain
- A traumatic brain injury
- A mother's exposure to viruses or toxic chemicals while pregnant
- Use of alcohol or recreational drugs
- Having a serious medical condition like cancer
- Having few friends, and feeling lonely or isolated
Mental disorders are not caused by character flaws. They have nothing to do with being lazy or weak.
