Occupational Therapy: Mental Conditions : Joseph Douglas

Occupational Therapy : Joseph DouglasAbout one in ten people globally suffer from a mental disorder… keep reading to find out how to treat them!

Whether it’s personally, from a loved one or just from someone you know, early signs of a mental disorder are often overlooked and brushed under the carpet.

Usually, it’s because an outsider will only think “that was a bit strange” or “that was unusual” or “I wonder what was going through their head at that time?”

The thoughts normally stay at that point and it is always left then.

Weeks or months down the line, the case turns out to be much worse and regrets about taking action at the time and preventing situations from worsening start bubbling up.

Even as simple as asking if they are alright and checking in, thinking you can make a difference are thoughts that go through the mind.

It is not you to blame and you should never kick yourself even if you think it is.

Learning the right actions to take towards helping a mental condition is the best step and this is why occupational therapy is so important.

You see people struggle with identifying how they feel, reaching out to people and living up to expectations. You see others struggle to interact socially, not making themselves a priority and even maintaining good routines.

From an outside perspective, these challenges are overlooked because it can be seen as mandatory and easy to do. Or with a more sensitive approach, it can be more intriguing to find out why these challenges are the case and how they can be tackled.
