Causes of Psychopathology

When working with people who show abnormal behavior you first
need to establish what normal behavior for that person is.
Psychopathology is where one studies these behaviors to see if they
are a mental illness. By studying these abnormal behaviors it can help
in determining on how the mind works and what treatments may help
the person with the mental disorder. Psychopathology helps in
showing how a person can better understand what is happening to
them and how we all can understand what it is. The following
presentation will provide a brief overview of how culture is a factor in
determining the expression of psychopathology, it will exome the
causes of psychopathology and, explain the changes in society’s
perspective of psychopathology as a function of a historical period.
First one needs to understand what exactly culture is in order to
determine how it is a factor in psychopathology. Culture is actually a
way of life that people may follow depending on what their beliefs are
what they may value and the way that they chose to live. This is
usually passed on from one generation of a family to the next and is
just a way of life that they have chosen. The way that a person’s
culture is can help in shaping what their mental health is like. This in
turn has a lot to do with the type of services a person may use for their
mental health disorders What we may think is abnormal behavior may
seem normal to another person in a different type of culture then what
we may have. What one cultures traditions may be may seem totally
abnormal to a different culture. This in turn can make it difficult to
determine what is normal or abnormal in a person and can take a lot of
research (Rana & Sharma, 2013).
Society can really view people who have a mental disorder differently.
At times they may not even want to be around them due to their
mental disorder as they may be embarrassed by it. This can really
have a lasting effect on the person who is suffering from the mental
illness and may change on how they feel about themselves. This can
put a damper on how they seek treatment as it can also cause more
lasting effects such as isolation when the person sees that they are
treated differently by others due to their mental illness. The way that
one may determine if a person is normal or abnormal may be by
watching how they function with themselves and others on a day to
day basis.
To develop a certain disorder is known as a diathesis and be
considered when a person is vulnerable to any type of stress that may
overcome them. This can give a person a tendency to develop a
disorder that is considered a mental illness disorder (Butcher, Hooley
& Mineka, 2014). What one person can handle another person may
not be able to as well. It can affect different people in different ways
by the same stressor that they may be experiencing. A person can even
be under a lot of stress and not really even realize it or how it is
effecting them. A chronic event may occur that can cause stress in an
individual and this is where diathesis will come into play. Every
person has a different diathesis when it has to do with a mental illness.
And different stressors can cause different mental illnesses in people.
Usually it is something negative that may happen in a person’s life
that will cause diathesis due to stress. It can certainly cause a person to
get closer to a mental illness. Depending on what the diathesis is and
what the level may be can determine how the disorder will appear due
to the amount of stress. Say for instance if a person has a lot of
diathesis and they have something very bad happen to them such as
for example a death then it would cause a very small amount of stress
for the person to show a mental illness or disorder. In the same
circumstance a person with a very little or no diathesis can have the
same thing happen to them with the same amount of stress and suffer
from no mental disorder or illness. It really all depends on what the
person can handle due to the amount of diathesis.
Back during another era or historical period when one would see or
deal with a person who had a mental illness or disorder they would be
deemed as being possessed or evil. Back in the day when individuals
would come upon someone with a mental illness that they thought was
possessed or evil they would have exorcists to try and bring it out of
the person (Butcher, Hooley & Mineka, 2014). Society looked at a
person who had a mental illness and showed abnormal behavior as
someone who was really bad and they were not like the others so they
must have something evil inside of them. They looked at in ways that
they thought the devil had something to do with it and that it was not
normal behavior. This is how it came about for the ones that seemed
to have this evil spirit in them would have to go to an insane asylum in
order to live for the rest of their lives. They would put all the people in
one place as they thought that they were truly possessed.
It was then found that a person’s mental illness may not be evil but
may be due to the fact that they could have inherited it from a family
member and that it could be in there genes. This would be something
that one would not be able to control and would need help with. This
is where pathology would come into play and it was studied and
researched to find treatments for the individuals that had a mental
illness (Butcher, Hooley & Mineka, 2014).
The study of mental illness and what causes it can be very interesting.
One needs to first find out what is normal and abnormal behavior in a
person. It is also interesting to see that what one person can handle
another may not be able to determining on how their mind is made up.
The more people will educate themselves and have a greater
understanding of a mental illness the more people who are suffering it
will not feel so much as an outcast to others. Mental illness has come
a long way from where it once was in our society today.

Usually it is something negative that may happen in a person’s life
that will cause diathesis due to stress. It can certainly cause a person to
get closer to a mental illness. Depending on what the diathesis is and
what the level may be can determine how the disorder will appear due
to the amount of stress. Say for instance if a person has a lot of
diathesis and they have something very bad happen to them such as
for example a death then it would cause a very small amount of stress
for the person to show a mental illness or disorder. In the same
circumstance a person with a very little or no diathesis can have the
same thing happen to them with the same amount of stress and suffer
from no mental disorder or illness. It really all depends on what the
person can handle due to the amount of diathesis.
Back during another era or historical period when one would see or
deal with a person who had a mental illness or disorder they would be
deemed as being possessed or evil. Back in the day when individuals
would come upon someone with a mental illness that they thought was
possessed or evil they would have exorcists to try and bring it out of
the person (Butcher, Hooley & Mineka, 2014). Society looked at a
person who had a mental illness and showed abnormal behavior as
someone who was really bad and they were not like the others so they
must have something evil inside of them. They looked at in ways that
they thought the devil had something to do with it and that it was not
normal behavior. This is how it came about for the ones that seemed
to have this evil spirit in them would have to go to an insane asylum in
order to live for the rest of their lives. They would put all the people in
one place as they thought that they were truly possessed.
It was then found that a person’s mental illness may not be evil but
may be due to the fact that they could have inherited it from a family
member and that it could be in there genes. This would be something
that one would not be able to control and would need help with. This
is where pathology would come into play and it was studied and
researched to find treatments for the individuals that had a mental
illness (Butcher, Hooley & Mineka, 2014).
The study of mental illness and what causes it can be very interesting.
One needs to first find out what is normal and abnormal behavior in a
person. It is also interesting to see that what one person can handle
another may not be able to determining on how their mind is made up.
The more people will educate themselves and have a greater
understanding of a mental illness the more people who are suffering it
will not feel so much as an outcast to others. Mental illness has come
a long way from where it once was in our society today.
First one needs to understand what exactly culture is in order to
determine how it is a factor in psychopathology. Culture is actually a
way of life that people may follow depending on what their beliefs are
what they may value and the way that they chose to live. This is
usually passed on from one generation of a family to the next and is
just a way of life that they have chosen. The way that a person’s
culture is can help in shaping what their mental health is like. This in
turn has a lot to do with the type of services a person may use for their
mental health disorders What we may think is abnormal behavior may
seem normal to another person in a different type of culture then what
we may have. What one cultures traditions may be may seem totally
abnormal to a different culture. This in turn can make it difficult to
determine what is normal or abnormal in a person and can take a lot of
research (Rana & Sharma, 2013).
Society can really view people who have a mental disorder differently.
At times they may not even want to be around them due to their
mental disorder as they may be embarrassed by it. This can really
have a lasting effect on the person who is suffering from the mental
illness and may change on how they feel about themselves. This can
put a damper on how they seek treatment as it can also cause more
lasting effects such as isolation when the person sees that they are
treated differently by others due to their mental illness. The way that
one may determine if a person is normal or abnormal may be by
watching how they function with themselves and others on a day to
day basis.
To develop a certain disorder is known as a diathesis and be
considered when a person is vulnerable to any type of stress that may
overcome them. This can give a person a tendency to develop a
disorder that is considered a mental illness disorder (Butcher, Hooley
& Mineka, 2014). What one person can handle another person may
not be able to as well. It can affect different people in different ways
by the same stressor that they may be experiencing. A person can even
be under a lot of stress and not really even realize it or how it is
effecting them. A chronic event may occur that can cause stress in an
individual and this is where diathesis will come into play. Every
person has a different diathesis when it has to do with a mental illness.
And different stressors can cause different mental illnesses in people.

just a way of life that they have chosen. The way that a person’s
culture is can help in shaping what their mental health is like. This in
turn has a lot to do with the type of services a person may use for their
mental health disorders What we may think is abnormal behavior may
seem normal to another person in a different type of culture then what
we may have. What one cultures traditions may be may seem totally
abnormal to a different culture. This in turn can make it difficult to
determine what is normal or abnormal in a person and can take a lot of
research (Rana & Sharma, 2013).
Society can really view people who have a mental disorder differently.
At times they may not even want to be around them due to their
mental disorder as they may be embarrassed by it. This can really
have a lasting effect on the person who is suffering from the mental
illness and may change on how they feel about themselves. This can
put a damper on how they seek treatment as it can also cause more
lasting effects such as isolation when the person sees that they are
treated differently by others due to their mental illness. The way that
one may determine if a person is normal or abnormal may be by
watching how they function with themselves and others on a day to
day basis.
To develop a certain disorder is known as a diathesis and be
considered when a person is vulnerable to any type of stress that may
overcome them. This can give a person a tendency to develop a
disorder that is considered a mental illness disorder (Butcher, Hooley
& Mineka, 2014). What one person can handle another person may
not be able to as well. It can affect different people in different ways
by the same stressor that they may be experiencing. A person can even
be under a lot of stress and not really even realize it or how it is
effecting them. A chronic event may occur that can cause stress in an
individual and this is where diathesis will come into play. Every
person has a different diathesis when it has to do with a mental illness.
And different stressors can cause different mental illnesses in people.
Usually it is something negative that may happen in a person’s life
that will cause diathesis due to stress. It can certainly cause a person to
get closer to a mental illness. Depending on what the diathesis is and
what the level may be can determine how the disorder will appear due
to the amount of stress. Say for instance if a person has a lot of
diathesis and they have something very bad happen to them such as
for example a death then it would cause a very small amount of stress
for the person to show a mental illness or disorder. In the same
circumstance a person with a very little or no diathesis can have the
same thing happen to them with the same amount of stress and suffer
from no mental disorder or illness. It really all depends on what the
person can handle due to the amount of diathesis.
Back during another era or historical period when one would see or
deal with a person who had a mental illness or disorder they would be
deemed as being possessed or evil. Back in the day when individuals
would come upon someone with a mental illness that they thought was
possessed or evil they would have exorcists to try and bring it out of
the person (Butcher, Hooley & Mineka, 2014). Society looked at a
person who had a mental illness and showed abnormal behavior as
someone who was really bad and they were not like the others so they
must have something evil inside of them. They looked at in ways that
they thought the devil had something to do with it and that it was not
normal behavior. This is how it came about for the ones that seemed
to have this evil spirit in them would have to go to an insane asylum in
order to live for the rest of their lives. They would put all the people in
one place as they thought that they were truly possessed.
It was then found that a person’s mental illness may not be evil but
may be due to the fact that they could have inherited it from a family
member and that it could be in there genes. This would be something
that one would not be able to control and would need help with. This
is where pathology would come into play and it was studied and
researched to find treatments for the individuals that had a mental
illness (Butcher, Hooley & Mineka, 2014).
The study of mental illness and what causes it can be very interesting.
One needs to first find out what is normal and abnormal behavior in a
person. It is also interesting to see that what one person can handle
another may not be able to determining on how their mind is made up.
The more people will educate themselves and have a greater
understanding of a mental illness the more people who are suffering it
will not feel so much as an outcast to others. Mental illness has come
a long way from where it once was in our society today.
First one needs to understand what exactly culture is in order to
determine how it is a factor in psychopathology. Culture is actually a
way of life that people may follow depending on what their beliefs are
what they may value and the way that they chose to live. This is
usually passed on from one generation of a family to the next and is
just a way of life that they have chosen. The way that a person’s
culture is can help in shaping what their mental health is like. This in

would come upon someone with a mental illness that they thought was
possessed or evil they would have exorcists to try and bring it out of
the person (Butcher, Hooley & Mineka, 2014). Society looked at a
person who had a mental illness and showed abnormal behavior as
someone who was really bad and they were not like the others so they
must have something evil inside of them. They looked at in ways that
they thought the devil had something to do with it and that it was not
normal behavior. This is how it came about for the ones that seemed
to have this evil spirit in them would have to go to an insane asylum in
order to live for the rest of their lives. They would put all the people in
one place as they thought that they were truly possessed.
It was then found that a person’s mental illness may not be evil but
may be due to the fact that they could have inherited it from a family
member and that it could be in there genes. This would be something
that one would not be able to control and would need help with. This
is where pathology would come into play and it was studied and
researched to find treatments for the individuals that had a mental
illness (Butcher, Hooley & Mineka, 2014).
The study of mental illness and what causes it can be very interesting.
One needs to first find out what is normal and abnormal behavior in a
person. It is also interesting to see that what one person can handle
another may not be able to determining on how their mind is made up.
The more people will educate themselves and have a greater
understanding of a mental illness the more people who are suffering it
will not feel so much as an outcast to others. Mental illness has come
a long way from where it once was in our society today.
First one needs to understand what exactly culture is in order to
determine how it is a factor in psychopathology. Culture is actually a
way of life that people may follow depending on what their beliefs are
what they may value and the way that they chose to live. This is
usually passed on from one generation of a family to the next and is
just a way of life that they have chosen. The way that a person’s
culture is can help in shaping what their mental health is like. This in
turn has a lot to do with the type of services a person may use for their
mental health disorders What we may think is abnormal behavior may
seem normal to another person in a different type of culture then what
we may have. What one cultures traditions may be may seem totally
abnormal to a different culture. This in turn can make it difficult to
determine what is normal or abnormal in a person and can take a lot of
research (Rana & Sharma, 2013).
Society can really view people who have a mental disorder differently.
At times they may not even want to be around them due to their
mental disorder as they may be embarrassed by it. This can really
have a lasting effect on the person who is suffering from the mental
illness and may change on how they feel about themselves. This can
put a damper on how they seek treatment as it can also cause more
lasting effects such as isolation when the person sees that they are
treated differently by others due to their mental illness. The way that
one may determine if a person is normal or abnormal may be by
watching how they function with themselves and others on a day to
day basis.
To develop a certain disorder is known as a diathesis and be
considered when a person is vulnerable to any type of stress that may
overcome them. This can give a person a tendency to develop a
disorder that is considered a mental illness disorder (Butcher, Hooley
& Mineka, 2014). What one person can handle another person may
not be able to as well. It can affect different people in different ways
by the same stressor that they may be experiencing. A person can even
be under a lot of stress and not really even realize it or how it is
effecting them. A chronic event may occur that can cause stress in an
individual and this is where diathesis will come into play. Every
person has a different diathesis when it has to do with a mental illness.
And different stressors can cause different mental illnesses in people.
Usually it is something negative that may happen in a person’s life
that will cause diathesis due to stress. It can certainly cause a person to
get closer to a mental illness. Depending on what the diathesis is and
what the level may be can determine how the disorder will appear due
to the amount of stress. Say for instance if a person has a lot of
diathesis and they have something very bad happen to them such as
for example a death then it would cause a very small amount of stress
for the person to show a mental illness or disorder. In the same
circumstance a person with a very little or no diathesis can have the
same thing happen to them with the same amount of stress and suffer
from no mental disorder or illness. It really all depends on what the
person can handle due to the amount of diathesis.

lasting effects such as isolation when the person sees that they are
treated differently by others due to their mental illness. The way that
one may determine if a person is normal or abnormal may be by
watching how they function with themselves and others on a day to
day basis.
To develop a certain disorder is known as a diathesis and be
considered when a person is vulnerable to any type of stress that may
overcome them. This can give a person a tendency to develop a
disorder that is considered a mental illness disorder (Butcher, Hooley
& Mineka, 2014). What one person can handle another person may
not be able to as well. It can affect different people in different ways
by the same stressor that they may be experiencing. A person can even
be under a lot of stress and not really even realize it or how it is
effecting them. A chronic event may occur that can cause stress in an
individual and this is where diathesis will come into play. Every
person has a different diathesis when it has to do with a mental illness.
And different stressors can cause different mental illnesses in people.
Usually it is something negative that may happen in a person’s life
that will cause diathesis due to stress. It can certainly cause a person to
get closer to a mental illness. Depending on what the diathesis is and
what the level may be can determine how the disorder will appear due
to the amount of stress. Say for instance if a person has a lot of
diathesis and they have something very bad happen to them such as
for example a death then it would cause a very small amount of stress
for the person to show a mental illness or disorder. In the same
circumstance a person with a very little or no diathesis can have the
same thing happen to them with the same amount of stress and suffer
from no mental disorder or illness. It really all depends on what the
person can handle due to the amount of diathesis.
Back during another era or historical period when one would see or
deal with a person who had a mental illness or disorder they would be
deemed as being possessed or evil. Back in the day when individuals
would come upon someone with a mental illness that they thought was
possessed or evil they would have exorcists to try and bring it out of
the person (Butcher, Hooley & Mineka, 2014). Society looked at a
person who had a mental illness and showed abnormal behavior as
someone who was really bad and they were not like the others so they
must have something evil inside of them. They looked at in ways that
they thought the devil had something to do with it and that it was not
normal behavior. This is how it came about for the ones that seemed
to have this evil spirit in them would have to go to an insane asylum in
order to live for the rest of their lives. They would put all the people in
one place as they thought that they were truly possessed.
It was then found that a person’s mental illness may not be evil but
may be due to the fact that they could have inherited it from a family
member and that it could be in there genes. This would be something
that one would not be able to control and would need help with. This
is where pathology would come into play and it was studied and
researched to find treatments for the individuals that had a mental
illness (Butcher, Hooley & Mineka, 2014).
The study of mental illness and what causes it can be very interesting.
One needs to first find out what is normal and abnormal behavior in a
person. It is also interesting to see that what one person can handle
another may not be able to determining on how their mind is made up.
The more people will educate themselves and have a greater
understanding of a mental illness the more people who are suffering it
will not feel so much as an outcast to others. Mental illness has come
a long way from where it once was in our society today.
First one needs to understand what exactly culture is in order to
determine how it is a factor in psychopathology. Culture is actually a
way of life that people may follow depending on what their beliefs are
what they may value and the way that they chose to live. This is
usually passed on from one generation of a family to the next and is
just a way of life that they have chosen. The way that a person’s
culture is can help in shaping what their mental health is like. This in
turn has a lot to do with the type of services a person may use for their
mental health disorders What we may think is abnormal behavior may
seem normal to another person in a different type of culture then what
we may have. What one cultures traditions may be may seem totally
abnormal to a different culture. This in turn can make it difficult to
determine what is normal or abnormal in a person and can take a lot of
research (Rana & Sharma, 2013).
Society can really view people who have a mental disorder differently.
At times they may not even want to be around them due to their
mental disorder as they may be embarrassed by it. This can really
have a lasting effect on the person who is suffering from the mental
illness and may change on how they feel about themselves. This can
put a damper on how they seek treatment as it can also cause more
lasting effects such as isolation when the person sees that they are
treated differently by others due to their mental illness. The way that

that one would not be able to control and would need help with. This
is where pathology would come into play and it was studied and
researched to find treatments for the individuals that had a mental
illness (Butcher, Hooley & Mineka, 2014).
The study of mental illness and what causes it can be very interesting.
One needs to first find out what is normal and abnormal behavior in a
person. It is also interesting to see that what one person can handle
another may not be able to determining on how their mind is made up.
The more people will educate themselves and have a greater
understanding of a mental illness the more people who are suffering it
will not feel so much as an outcast to others. Mental illness has come
a long way from where it once was in our society today.
First one needs to understand what exactly culture is in order to
determine how it is a factor in psychopathology. Culture is actually a
way of life that people may follow depending on what their beliefs are
what they may value and the way that they chose to live. This is
usually passed on from one generation of a family to the next and is
just a way of life that they have chosen. The way that a person’s
culture is can help in shaping what their mental health is like. This in
turn has a lot to do with the type of services a person may use for their
mental health disorders What we may think is abnormal behavior may
seem normal to another person in a different type of culture then what
we may have. What one cultures traditions may be may seem totally
abnormal to a different culture. This in turn can make it difficult to
determine what is normal or abnormal in a person and can take a lot of
research (Rana & Sharma, 2013).
Society can really view people who have a mental disorder differently.
At times they may not even want to be around them due to their
mental disorder as they may be embarrassed by it. This can really
have a lasting effect on the person who is suffering from the mental
illness and may change on how they feel about themselves. This can
put a damper on how they seek treatment as it can also cause more
lasting effects such as isolation when the person sees that they are
treated differently by others due to their mental illness. The way that
one may determine if a person is normal or abnormal may be by
watching how they function with themselves and others on a day to
day basis.
To develop a certain disorder is known as a diathesis and be
considered when a person is vulnerable to any type of stress that may
overcome them. This can give a person a tendency to develop a
disorder that is considered a mental illness disorder (Butcher, Hooley
& Mineka, 2014). What one person can handle another person may
not be able to as well. It can affect different people in different ways
by the same stressor that they may be experiencing. A person can even
be under a lot of stress and not really even realize it or how it is
effecting them. A chronic event may occur that can cause stress in an
individual and this is where diathesis will come into play. Every
person has a different diathesis when it has to do with a mental illness.
And different stressors can cause different mental illnesses in people.
Usually it is something negative that may happen in a person’s life
that will cause diathesis due to stress. It can certainly cause a person to
get closer to a mental illness. Depending on what the diathesis is and
what the level may be can determine how the disorder will appear due
to the amount of stress. Say for instance if a person has a lot of
diathesis and they have something very bad happen to them such as
for example a death then it would cause a very small amount of stress
for the person to show a mental illness or disorder. In the same
circumstance a person with a very little or no diathesis can have the
same thing happen to them with the same amount of stress and suffer
from no mental disorder or illness. It really all depends on what the
person can handle due to the amount of diathesis.
Back during another era or historical period when one would see or
deal with a person who had a mental illness or disorder they would be
deemed as being possessed or evil. Back in the day when individuals
would come upon someone with a mental illness that they thought was
possessed or evil they would have exorcists to try and bring it out of
the person (Butcher, Hooley & Mineka, 2014). Society looked at a
person who had a mental illness and showed abnormal behavior as
someone who was really bad and they were not like the others so they
must have something evil inside of them. They looked at in ways that
they thought the devil had something to do with it and that it was not
normal behavior. This is how it came about for the ones that seemed
to have this evil spirit in them would have to go to an insane asylum in
order to live for the rest of their lives. They would put all the people in
one place as they thought that they were truly possessed.
It was then found that a person’s mental illness may not be evil but
may be due to the fact that they could have inherited it from a family
member and that it could be in there genes. This would be something
that one would not be able to control and would need help with. This
is where pathology would come into play and it was studied and

person has a different diathesis when it has to do with a mental illness.
And different stressors can cause different mental illnesses in people.
Usually it is something negative that may happen in a person’s life
that will cause diathesis due to stress. It can certainly cause a person to
get closer to a mental illness. Depending on what the diathesis is and
what the level may be can determine how the disorder will appear due
to the amount of stress. Say for instance if a person has a lot of
diathesis and they have something very bad happen to them such as
for example a death then it would cause a very small amount of stress
for the person to show a mental illness or disorder. In the same
circumstance a person with a very little or no diathesis can have the
same thing happen to them with the same amount of stress and suffer
from no mental disorder or illness. It really all depends on what the
person can handle due to the amount of diathesis.
Back during another era or historical period when one would see or
deal with a person who had a mental illness or disorder they would be
deemed as being possessed or evil. Back in the day when individuals
would come upon someone with a mental illness that they thought was
possessed or evil they would have exorcists to try and bring it out of
the person (Butcher, Hooley & Mineka, 2014). Society looked at a
person who had a mental illness and showed abnormal behavior as
someone who was really bad and they were not like the others so they
must have something evil inside of them. They looked at in ways that
they thought the devil had something to do with it and that it was not
normal behavior. This is how it came about for the ones that seemed
to have this evil spirit in them would have to go to an insane asylum in
order to live for the rest of their lives. They would put all the people in
one place as they thought that they were truly possessed.
It was then found that a person’s mental illness may not be evil but
may be due to the fact that they could have inherited it from a family
member and that it could be in there genes. This would be something
that one would not be able to control and would need help with. This
is where pathology would come into play and it was studied and
researched to find treatments for the individuals that had a mental
illness (Butcher, Hooley & Mineka, 2014).
The study of mental illness and what causes it can be very interesting.
One needs to first find out what is normal and abnormal behavior in a
person. It is also interesting to see that what one person can handle
another may not be able to determining on how their mind is made up.
The more people will educate themselves and have a greater
understanding of a mental illness the more people who are suffering it
will not feel so much as an outcast to others. Mental illness has come
a long way from where it once was in our society today.
First one needs to understand what exactly culture is in order to
determine how it is a factor in psychopathology. Culture is actually a
way of life that people may follow depending on what their beliefs are
what they may value and the way that they chose to live. This is
usually passed on from one generation of a family to the next and is
just a way of life that they have chosen. The way that a person’s
culture is can help in shaping what their mental health is like. This in
turn has a lot to do with the type of services a person may use for their
mental health disorders What we may think is abnormal behavior may
seem normal to another person in a different type of culture then what
we may have. What one cultures traditions may be may seem totally
abnormal to a different culture. This in turn can make it difficult to
determine what is normal or abnormal in a person and can take a lot of
research (Rana & Sharma, 2013).
Society can really view people who have a mental disorder differently.
At times they may not even want to be around them due to their
mental disorder as they may be embarrassed by it. This can really
have a lasting effect on the person who is suffering from the mental
illness and may change on how they feel about themselves. This can
put a damper on how they seek treatment as it can also cause more
lasting effects such as isolation when the person sees that they are
treated differently by others due to their mental illness. The way that
one may determine if a person is normal or abnormal may be by
watching how they function with themselves and others on a day to
day basis.
To develop a certain disorder is known as a diathesis and be
considered when a person is vulnerable to any type of stress that may
overcome them. This can give a person a tendency to develop a
disorder that is considered a mental illness disorder (Butcher, Hooley
& Mineka, 2014). What one person can handle another person may
not be able to as well. It can affect different people in different ways
by the same stressor that they may be experiencing. A person can even
be under a lot of stress and not really even realize it or how it is
effecting them. A chronic event may occur that can cause stress in an
individual and this is where diathesis will come into play. Every
person has a different diathesis when it has to do with a mental illness.

what they may value and the way that they chose to live. This is
usually passed on from one generation of a family to the next and is
just a way of life that they have chosen. The way that a person’s
culture is can help in shaping what their mental health is like. This in
turn has a lot to do with the type of services a person may use for their
mental health disorders What we may think is abnormal behavior may
seem normal to another person in a different type of culture then what
we may have. What one cultures traditions may be may seem totally
abnormal to a different culture. This in turn can make it difficult to
determine what is normal or abnormal in a person and can take a lot of
research (Rana & Sharma, 2013).
Society can really view people who have a mental disorder differently.
At times they may not even want to be around them due to their
mental disorder as they may be embarrassed by it. This can really
have a lasting effect on the person who is suffering from the mental
illness and may change on how they feel about themselves. This can
put a damper on how they seek treatment as it can also cause more
lasting effects such as isolation when the person sees that they are
treated differently by others due to their mental illness. The way that
one may determine if a person is normal or abnormal may be by
watching how they function with themselves and others on a day to
day basis.
To develop a certain disorder is known as a diathesis and be
considered when a person is vulnerable to any type of stress that may
overcome them. This can give a person a tendency to develop a
disorder that is considered a mental illness disorder (Butcher, Hooley
& Mineka, 2014). What one person can handle another person may
not be able to as well. It can affect different people in different ways
by the same stressor that they may be experiencing. A person can even
be under a lot of stress and not really even realize it or how it is
effecting them. A chronic event may occur that can cause stress in an
individual and this is where diathesis will come into play. Every
person has a different diathesis when it has to do with a mental illness.
And different stressors can cause different mental illnesses in people.
Usually it is something negative that may happen in a person’s life
that will cause diathesis due to stress. It can certainly cause a person to
get closer to a mental illness. Depending on what the diathesis is and
what the level may be can determine how the disorder will appear due
to the amount of stress. Say for instance if a person has a lot of
diathesis and they have something very bad happen to them such as
for example a death then it would cause a very small amount of stress
for the person to show a mental illness or disorder. In the same
circumstance a person with a very little or no diathesis can have the
same thing happen to them with the same amount of stress and suffer
from no mental disorder or illness. It really all depends on what the
person can handle due to the amount of diathesis.
Back during another era or historical period when one would see or
deal with a person who had a mental illness or disorder they would be
deemed as being possessed or evil. Back in the day when individuals
would come upon someone with a mental illness that they thought was
possessed or evil they would have exorcists to try and bring it out of
the person (Butcher, Hooley & Mineka, 2014). Society looked at a
person who had a mental illness and showed abnormal behavior as
someone who was really bad and they were not like the others so they
must have something evil inside of them. They looked at in ways that
they thought the devil had something to do with it and that it was not
normal behavior. This is how it came about for the ones that seemed
to have this evil spirit in them would have to go to an insane asylum in
order to live for the rest of their lives. They would put all the people in
one place as they thought that they were truly possessed.
It was then found that a person’s mental illness may not be evil but
may be due to the fact that they could have inherited it from a family
member and that it could be in there genes. This would be something
that one would not be able to control and would need help with. This
is where pathology would come into play and it was studied and
researched to find treatments for the individuals that had a mental
illness (Butcher, Hooley & Mineka, 2014).
The study of mental illness and what causes it can be very interesting.
One needs to first find out what is normal and abnormal behavior in a
person. It is also interesting to see that what one person can handle
another may not be able to determining on how their mind is made up.
The more people will educate themselves and have a greater
understanding of a mental illness the more people who are suffering it
will not feel so much as an outcast to others. Mental illness has come
a long way from where it once was in our society today.

deal with a person who had a mental illness or disorder they would be
deemed as being possessed or evil. Back in the day when individuals
would come upon someone with a mental illness that they thought was
possessed or evil they would have exorcists to try and bring it out of
the person (Butcher, Hooley & Mineka, 2014). Society looked at a
person who had a mental illness and showed abnormal behavior as
someone who was really bad and they were not like the others so they
must have something evil inside of them. They looked at in ways that
they thought the devil had something to do with it and that it was not
normal behavior. This is how it came about for the ones that seemed
to have this evil spirit in them would have to go to an insane asylum in
order to live for the rest of their lives. They would put all the people in
one place as they thought that they were truly possessed.
It was then found that a person’s mental illness may not be evil but
may be due to the fact that they could have inherited it from a family
member and that it could be in there genes. This would be something
that one would not be able to control and would need help with. This
is where pathology would come into play and it was studied and
researched to find treatments for the individuals that had a mental
illness (Butcher, Hooley & Mineka, 2014).
The study of mental illness and what causes it can be very interesting.
One needs to first find out what is normal and abnormal behavior in a
person. It is also interesting to see that what one person can handle
another may not be able to determining on how their mind is made up.
The more people will educate themselves and have a greater
understanding of a mental illness the more people who are suffering it
will not feel so much as an outcast to others. Mental illness has come
a long way from where it once was in our society today.
