How terrible is the recurrent mental disorder?

Mental disorder refers to a general term for disorders of brain function that lead to cognitive, emotional, behavioral, will and other disorders. Many people with mental disorders have delusions, hallucinations, delusions, mood disturbances, moodiness, talking to themselves, bizarre behavior, decreased willpower, etc. The vast majority of patients lack insight, do not admit that they are sick, and do not take the initiative to seek medical help. The number of people with mental disorders has increased in recent years. Clinical statistics show that some early-stage patients can stabilize their condition and return to normal life through systematic and standardized treatment. However, there are still some patients who have aggravated the condition and failed drugs due to various reasons, and have been repeatedly relapsed, often making themselves and their families miserable and making treatment more difficult. What are the dangers of recurrent mental disorders? 1. Every episode of mental disorder may cause brain damage to the patient, further damage to cognitive function, and further decline of social function. 2. For the patient's family, repeated mental disorder means that the relative's condition deteriorates, and they have to bear greater economic burden and mental pressure due to repeated forced hospitalization. 3. For professionals, repeated treatment will increase the difficulty of treatment and make the final prognosis unsatisfactory. Why do mental disorders recur? 1. Believing that antipsychotic drugs can solve all the causes, manifestations, treatment and prognosis of mental diseases are different from other diseases, many mental patients or their families still hope to be cured by taking the drugs prescribed by professionals, but fail to recognize the psychosocial The influence of factors, especially the treatment effect of neurosis, reactive mental disorder and other diseases. 2. Frequent changes of doctors and drugs The occurrence and development of insomnia such as schizophrenia and affective disorders have their own natural laws. When it is in the acute development stage, even if the treatment is relatively timely, it will take a certain period of time, about 2 to 4 weeks, for the drug to take effect. Professionals also consider factors such as the patient's age, physical disease, and physical condition. Therefore, it is impossible for most patients to control the disease immediately. Some family members of patients are eager to get better, suspect and accuse doctors, intervene unreasonably in treatment, and frequently change professionals. When some family members hear that a certain medicine is effective for a certain disease, they repeatedly ask professionals to switch to a certain medicine for the patient. 3. Poor medication adherence The results of the first national survey on medication adherence among patients with mental disorders showed that 30% of the patients and their families admitted to having discontinued, reduced or refused to take medication, and 1/4 of the patients had forgotten to take medication. This intermittent use of medication can cause mental illness to be difficult to control effectively and to recur. 4. Lack of insight and poor family supervision. After discharge, mental patients need strict supervision by guardians, especially some children and adolescents. Because each patient's self-control is different, mental illness requires regular work and rest and long-term medication for long-term control. Some patients have poor medication compliance and poor self-care ability. Without the long-term company and reminder of family members, it is easy to forget to take medicine, life will return to the previous state, and disease recurrence will become an inevitable thing. For patients, relapse often means the need to experience another long-term medication, and even suffer from mental torture. More importantly, it presents a severe test for the entire family. Therefore, it is very important to prevent the recurrence of mental illness!
