>>>From a medical perspective we know absolutely nothing about mental illness, or they wouldn't be called mental illnesses. *sigh*
>>>If it was proved to have a genetic component, the illness would be redefined as a neurological disease and quite likely named after its discoverer.Um, have you ever read any medical journals? Any scientific journals that are peer-reviewed - I can easily give you a dozen that prove the genetic components of "mental illness" just as much as diabetes has been "proven".
>>> the chemical balance theory for mental illness unproved, any theory about mental illness is unproved. By definition, causes and physiology of all mental illness are purely speculation nothing further.
Um, emphatic no! Are you are researcher or a layman? How did you come up with such concrete conclusions? Please give me some evidence based facts for your claims. Thanks.
By the way, what group are you representing, if any at all?
