| The articles in this section provide information on mental health diagnoses and treatment procedures. You can pick what article interests you. The purpose of these articles is to provide information that helps you understand better problems such as anxiety, depression, anger control, or major mental illness. Extending your knowledge of mental health problems and the forms of treatment can help you manage your life better. Successful treatment in mental health not only requires an understanding of the treatment procedure, but other kinds of investments by the person being treated. This section can help the person make the decisions that are important in achieving better outcomes. | The articles in this section cover many of the questions that have to be answered whenever programs are set up by agencies, or the government. We currently perform this task with mixed results. It would be nice if everyone could get better at this, but often the “debates” in the field consist of people talking past one another, or the questions remain silent. Explore these issues by reading these articles. |
