Do people with mental health issues want to get better?

>get better
lmao you know nothing about mental health, there is no 'get better'
>>
>>24277224

>>24277224
Obviously?
I mean, some don't, of course
But usually self sabotaging behavior is not out of a desire to keep suffering

i would miss the voices if they stopped buzzing around in my head but learning to live with them and not be paranoid about everyone and everything was very healing
overcoming 6 years of suicidial depression felt like emerging from an incredibly long nightmare

I mean if we look at all the whiny self-diagnosing tranime characters on this board, it's pretty obvious they don't want to get better when they have every excuse in the book ready to go whenever they're offered advice.

Come out and insult me properly you coward. If you had anything worth saying you'd bring out the guns and actually win the fight, not just pepper me with paper thin suggestions at my inferiority and pretend it's a victory.

Sometimes I despise myself very much
Some other times I consider myself "perfect", as if there were nothing to change

>Continued vagueposting and wilfully misunderstanding
You have nothing to say and you don't argue with people for any intelligent reason. You just come and play a stupid persons idea of a smart person to satisfy your need to feel like you're superior and in control of your life.

>>24277487
nice projection there buddy

>>24277512
Prove it then
Give us a reason to think you're anything but a loser that shows up to yell at random people to feel good about yourself.
If you actually cared about anything you start fights over you'd justify your positions and admit it when you've made a wrong assumption about someone. But you don't, you explain nothing and you double down on insults and you assume any attempt to reach common understanding is just lies and excuses. Because you don't want the truth, and you don't have any morals and values. What you want is to yell at someone and feel like you're better than them.
Go on, prove me wrong.

>>24277575
damn you really are having a melty, you ok bro?
>>
>>24277224
depends on the person and the mental health issue.

yes and no

>>24277224
I think asking that question runs the risk of framing a person's mental illness as a moral and personal failing
it's understandable if that's how it feels to you if somebody doesn't want to get better; it's exactly the pre-modern primitve view of mental health
but if they don't want to get better, it's a result of their condition; it's not a personal failing
they are ILL, they often don't understand the extent of their illness, and even the ones who are fully cognisant of it, and want to be normal, more than likely cannot ever really be so

if they could see themselves from the outside, from a perspective where they weren't mentally ill, would they want the person they see to get better?
of course they would

does a patient wanting to get better or not have any bearing on our nascent, primitive, pathetically-lacking ability to actually treat mental illnesses?
no, it doesn't; we can't really treat them effectively whether they want it or not

one of our latest developments as a species is using magnets to quiet down the parts of the brain responsible for the very highest levels of thought: creativity, logical reasoning, metacognition
we dull down the person with an electromagnetic lobotomy, and they appear to be better—big tick on the patient treatment checklist—but they're not better; they're quieter and more manageable for the system, and that's what we call an effective treatment
