Situational Management Disabilities
Situational management in mental health is relating to patients
appropriately to find the source of the problem, as well as
finding a solution to fix the problem. Disabilities come in all
forms, including schizophrenia, posttraumatic stress, bipolar,
depression, and multiple personality and so on.
When a person has a mental disability we must always seek out
the problems that lay beneath the surface of the diagnose. Each
disability has its own unique symptoms, yet may include symptoms
of other diagnosis. For example, Posttraumatic Stress Disorder
has symptoms including flashbacks and nightmares; likewise,
Multiple Personality Disorder (MPD) (Currently Known as
Dissociate Identities) patients often suffer flashbacks and
nightmares as well. Therefore, you must look at all symptoms of
each diagnose before concluding or deducing what we are dealing
with. Schizophrenia is another complicated disability.
Psychotics, Schizophrenia and several other types of diagnoses
including different types of schizophrenia often have similar
symptoms. For example, schizophrenias often hallucinate, and so
will a patient with psychosis. The difference in the diagnose is
that schizophrenias often have its own symptoms, and are often
more extensive than those with psychosis. We can see from this
information then that we need a situational management solution
in order to deal with each problem in the various diagnoses.
Looking at Schizophrenia the situational management should be as
follow: Schizophrenias should automatically receive medications
to prevent further complications, including harming self and
others. Schizophrenias often need long-term therapeutic
treatment, and management of their life. Often these people
cannot find a resolve since Schizophrenia is often permanent due
to the lack of knowledge on the complicated purpose of the
disability.
Psychotics are often difficult to treat as well, since little
information is available regarding the problem. Psychotics are
another type of disability that needs long-term treatment and
medications to avoid further complications. When the two go
unnoticed, the result could prove disastrous, since the symptoms
are often a potential danger. Posttraumatic Stress Disorder is
also complicated, since at one time the diagnose was only issued
to war survivors.
Now studies are proving that Posttraumatic Stress Disorder is
extended further than war, and found that many persons today
suffer from Posttraumatic Stress. Although the diagnose has its
own complications the therapist often has to take another route
to treat these patients. They often include medications, but
sometimes have to take a different approach in therapy to treat
the patients.
Since posttraumatic stress has different levels, the situational
management solution has to conform to the level of posttraumatic
stress. Multiple Personality Disorder (MPD) is a diagnosis in
itself and is not related to strict mental illness; rather it is
more a neurological issue. Multiple Personality patients are
often brilliant, and very observant, simply because amnesia will
carry them to a distant part of the brain. Multiple Personality
Disorder is complicated in the sense very few understand the
complexity of the disorder. To treat this type of diagnose you
will need a direct management with extensive skills.
The person that is suffering with this disability is often
easier to treat those common disabilities, simply because the
patient will often submit to the therapeutic treatment, and the
only time it becomes extremely dangerous is through the
Integration process. This is because the patient will relive
extreme trauma through Projections and can become dangerous
since the person might harm his or her self. The Projections are
an actual event that took place that included trauma, and the
pictures are often real-based making it difficult for the
patient to decipher. Often at this level, the person will alter
and another personality will take the spot.
This diagnose is another long-term treatment, and medications
will often cause more harm than good. Bipolar is another
widespread disability that is affecting millions everyday. This
particular disability can be treated with medicines that
reconstruct a particular chemical that is absent from the brain.
Regardless of what the disability is the patient must be treated
distinctly from other patients. Even if a person has bipolar,
the symptoms are not always the same in ever case. For example,
one person may have suffered childhood abuse, while another has
suffered the loss of a family member, obviously the first person
will also need situational management that includes trauma
reduction remedies.
