Mental health conditions are spectrum conditions which means that they are pathologic manifestations of normal human experience. For example it is normal for humans to feel low in certain situations - this is not a mental health condition. However when that lowness starts to impact our functioning and quality of life long term and pathologically this is when it becomes a diagnosable mental health condition. When we are treating spectrum disorders this means that we can’t take away our normal emotions. We can’t take away the sensation of lowness forever but we do want to make it manageable and appropriate given a situation.

One of the most important things that we can do to support and treat our mental health is to decrease factors that exacerbate obstacles and factors that worsen our mental health.
