One of the main reasons for mental health illnesses is biological where certain neuro-chemicals in the brain are in a state of an imbalance and the right medication allows this to be corrected. These medication are non-addictive, contrary to popular belief rather therapeutic as they attempt to reset and correct the imbalance. This requires the patient to complete the required duration of treatment with regular monitoring and follow up care. The course of the treatment maybe of a minimum duration of 6 months or more. Now even new generation medications are available which have minimal side effects and give good patient response.
