From reading and reflecting her personal experience and journey with her sister, Pamela, I acquired a personal outlook of the deteriorating effects of mental illness as a whole, discovering how one individual’s symptoms could significantly impact others such as family and friends. From this new perspective mental health counseling provides a dominate field within not only individuals who may suffer mental illness such as Pamela, but also serve as a breaking point for family and friends who also travel through the illness, such as Carolyn.
During Therapeutic Community, Pete always says he’s tired because he’s bored with the monotonous schedule he lives day after day. In the mental hospital, Nurse Ratched and the doctor have the patients get together, and Nurse Ratched tells them to admit their secrets. At McMurphy’s first meeting, Chief remembers one time when the meeting went differently than it usually does. Before getting hushed like usual, Pete Bancini admits his truth, and Chief describes it as, “Then old Pete was on his feet. ‘I’m tired!’ was what he shouted, a strong, angry copper tone to his voice that no one had ever heard before”(Kesey 51).

As previously presented, a psychiatric report states that Mary Maloney is not suffering, or has not suffered in the past, any form of mental disorder or illness. Mrs. Maloney did not have schizophrenia, and she was not bipolar, she was not insane. Given the fact that she was not insane still does not mean that it was impossible for her to have “snapped” and done something irrational at that moment. Yet the likely hood of this even occurring is very slim, in fact the chance of it happening is a 0.1 out of 100 chance. It is known that some mental illnesses are hereditary and may have not showed up on current files therefore; we also brought in psychiatric reports from Mary Maloney’s parents and 3 grandparents. All these reports are clean from any mental disorders. Mary Maloney not having a mental disorder was not the only significant evidence in this report. T...

Bipolar disorder, which is also called manic-depression, is a term used to define forms of irregular and intense mood swings that can make someone be depressed one day and a complete maniac the next. Unlike other medical conditions, bipolar disorder does not only affect one’s life, but it can also have an impact on other individuals. The extreme mood swings can have a major consequence on someone’s social life and cause one to fail in his or her career or education. Even though bipolar is not the immense discussion in medical disorders; it is still a dangerous condition that affects a multitude of individuals in the world. Many suffer severe symptoms and dangers but they can still live a satisfying life with treatments and therapy.
