1 UNDERSTANDING THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN MENTAL HEALTH & MENTAL ILLNESS Module Two: the Guide Resource Dr. Stan Kutcher & Ms. Yifeng Wei March 2015
2 UNDERSTANDING MENTAL HEALTH STATES: WHAT THE WORDS MEAN Mental Disorder/Illness Mental Health Problem Mental Distress No Distress, Problem or Disorder
3 MENTAL DISTRESS The brain s expected and usual response to the stresses of everyday life (e.g. exams, relationships, disappointments) Happens to everyone every day Leads to adaptation, learning and coping Is often seen as negative instead of as helpful Must reframe as positive (excitement not stress) Does not need treatment
4 MENTAL HEALTH PROBLEM The brain s response to a severe or persistent life problem (e.g. death of a family member, severe bullying, parent divorce) Happens to everyone many times in their life Shows that adaptation is difficult May require additional help (such as a counsellor or therapist) Does not require treatment
5 MENTAL DISORDER The brain is not functioning as it is supposed to function, leading to significant and persistent problems in a person s everyday life (caused by a combination of genetic and environmental factors) Happens to about 20% of people over their lifetime Must be diagnosed by a properly trained health professional Requires scientifically valid treatments provided by a trained health professional
6 ALL TOGETHER A person can be in one or more of these mental health states at the same time! For example: a person can have Schizophrenia (a mental disorder), their mother has recently died (a mental health problem), they lost their car keys earlier today (mental distress) and now they are hanging out with a friend and enjoying themselves.
7 THE BRAIN Mental Health is Brain Health The presence of mental distress or a mental health problem is an example of your brain working to help you adapt to life s challenges and develop skills for future challenges The same way that your body has an immune system to help you adapt to infections and develop better immunity for future infections
8 BEING HEALTHY DOES NOT MEAN NEVER EXPERIENCING PROBLEMS Negative emotions (e.g. worry, fear, sadness) are not necessarily a sign of mental illness they are usually part of a mental healthy response to a mental stressor (such as a romantic disappointment) Just like negative physical symptoms (e.g. fever, fatigue, cough) are not necessarily a sign of physical illness they are usually part of a healthy response to a physical stressor (such as a virus)
9 BRAIN & BODY Life Stress such as a romantic breakup Brain responds with negative feelings (e.g. sad, worried) and behaviors (e.g. crying, loss of appetite) Your brain adapts and you learn how to cope and now you are stronger in case it happens again Life Stress such as a viral infection Body responds with increasing temperature (e.g. fever) and negative physical sensations (e.g. aching muscles, fatigue) Your immune system fights off the virus and now you are stronger in case it comes back
10 BRAIN & BODY ARE CONNECTED Sadness Worry Anxiety Unhappiness Disappointment Embarrassment Anger Muscle tension Headaches Stomach aches Flushing Tingling Difficulty breathing Heart pounding
11 WHAT IS THE BRAIN? The brain is the most complex organ in the body the master control centre. It is considered to be the most complex thing known. The brain is made up of many different cells called neurons as well as other cells that support these neurons. Neurons are arranged in very complex networks also called circuits. They control things like movement, thinking, etc. Neurons communicate using chemical messengers.
12 YOUR BRAIN DEVELOPS & CHANGES OVER YOUR ENTIRE LIFE age Grey Matter
13 WHAT DOES THE BRAIN DO? Almost everything!
14 FUNCTIONS OF THE BRAIN 1. Thinking or Cognition
15 THINKING (OR COGNITION) Includes all of our internal mental processes and functions Planning Calculating Self Awareness Sequencing Judgment Comprehension Reasoning Decoding symbols Focusing Paying attention Memory Contemplation
16 FUNCTIONS OF THE BRAIN 1. Thinking or Cognition 2. Perception or Sensing
17 Touch PERCEPTION (OR SENSING) The ability to use our five senses to: See Hear Smell Taste
18 FUNCTIONS OF THE BRAIN 1. Thinking or Cognition 2. Perception or Sensing 3. Emotion or Feeling
19 EMOTIONS (OR FEELING) The ability to experience, label, describe and express feelings Joy Anger Sadness Hope Consternation Demoralization Happiness Sadness Contentment Shame Loneliness Guilt Frustration Resentment Serenity Annoyance
20 FUNCTIONS OF THE BRAIN 1. Thinking or Cognition 2. Perception or Sensing 3. Emotion or Feeling 4. Signaling (being responsive and reacting to the environment)
21 WHAT IS SIGNALING? DANGER! Brain Registers DANGER! Sensory Perception (Ears, Eyes, Nose, Touch, Taste) Internal Signals (Thoughts, Emotions, Physical) Initiation of Heightened Awareness Heart Rate Alertness Perception Tension Prepared to Fight or Flee for Safety & Protection
22 FUNCTIONS OF THE BRAIN 1. Thinking or Cognition 2. Perception or Sensing 3. Emotion or Feeling 4. Signaling (being responsive and reacting to the environment) 5. Physical
23 BRAIN CONTROL All of our physical functions are under the control of our brain: Respiratory System Circulatory System Nervous System Genitourinary System Digestive System Musculoskeletal System
24 BRAIN: ENDOCRINE & IMMUNE SYSTEMS The Brain controls the release of hormones that regulate many different kinds of body processes, including: growth, sexual development, cell repair, etc. The Brain controls many aspects of your immune system and your immune system also impacts on your brain.
25 FUNCTIONS OF THE BRAIN 1. Thinking or Cognition 2. Perception or Sensing 3. Emotion or Feeling 4. Signaling (being responsive and reacting to the environment) 5. Physical 6. Behaviour
26 WHAT ARE SOME BEHAVIOURAL FUNCTIONS? Social interactions Sexual activity Acts of kindness Acts of aggression Goal directed activities Relaxation activities
27 ITS ALL CONNECTED! Although we often talk about each of the brain functions separately, they are all interconnected!
28 REMEMBER You cannot separate the Brain from the Body. The Brain and Body are one! So, it s also not possible to separate Mental from Physical Health what is good for your brain will be good for your body, and vice versa.
