Mental Health
Mental Health can come in all shapes and forms and can happen to anyone there are no guidelines to say who it can happen to or even when it will happen although there are certain aspects of life that may trigger a person to feel mentally unstable. It is said that one in four of people will suffer with a mental health issue sometime in their lives and it can occur at any stage. Everyday concerns and worries can affect your mental health but these are just seen as mild, some mental health issues can be viewed as more serious especially when they begin to affect every aspect of your everyday life
Much of the worries about everyday life are short lived and people get over such things quite quickly. If someone is affected by a more serious type of mental health it is usually long lasting but if caught early and treated with the correct treatment and medication the problems can be overcome or it can be lived with quite comfortable. Mental health problems are divided and split up in to groups according to the patients symptoms and state of mind so that the right treatment and medication can be given to the patient however sometimes patients are diagnosed inappropriately and this could affect their recovery. There is a lot of controversy in the medical health field as many problems or illnesses over lap and others are overlooked so the treatment offered may not always be the right one. Medical negligence can occur if the patient is misdiagnosed with the wrong illness and given incorrect treatment, it may result in the patient’s symptoms worsening because treatment has been delayed.

Types of Mental Health
Generally mental health can be divided in to two main areas neurotic or psychotic. People who experience neurotic symptoms are said to experience things that are the extreme of normal. Often people who experience episode of neurosis are those who suffer with depression, feeling of panic and anxiety such things which are quite common in everyday life.
The second area is psychotic which maybe classed in some cases as more serious and less common. Psychosis plays on a person’s mind set and it is often deludes their reality. Patients who have psychotic episodes tend not to be able to establish real life and it interferes with people perception of reality. Two clear indications of people suffering from psychosis are if they experience hallucinations and delusions. Both can take over a person’s life and disrupt any normality they felt before. It can affect their emotions, behaviour and generally all aspects of life.
Mental health should always be taken seriously as it affects about a quarter of the population with one or two in every hundred people experiencing some sort of severe mental illness.Also the UK goverment is making mental health services more effective as you can see here www.gov.uk/government/policies/making-mental-health-services-more-effective-and-accessible–2 if you believe your doctor or GP has been negligent you can get free compensation claim advice here www.medicalnegligenceassist.co.uk.
