Guidance from Hazrat Khalifatul Masih V (AA) on Mental Health

“FIRST YOU NEED TO FIND OUT THE UNDERLYING CAUSE [FOR THEIR MENTAL HEALTH PROBLEMS]. THOSE SUFFERING SHOULD BE TAKEN TO A PSYCHIATRIST BY THEIR RELATIVES AND THEY SHOULD BE TREATED PROPERLY AND FULL EFFORTS SHOULD BE MADE TO RID THEM OF THEIR PAIN. FURTHERMORE, SEE WHAT TIME OF THE DAY THEIR SUFFERING IS MOST ACUTE. IF IT IS IN THE MORNING AT 10 OR 11 THEN THEY SHOULD GO OUT FOR A WALK AT THAT TIME TO GET SOME FRESH AIR.

SECONDLY, THEY SHOULD PRAY TO ALLAH THE ALMIGHTY AND THEY SHOULD TRY TO DEVELOP THEIR WILL-POWER AND DETERMINATION. THEY SHOULD PRAY THAT ALLAH THE ALMIGHTY BRINGS THEM OUT OF THIS PHASE. SO, MEDICAL CARE SHOULD BE ADOPTED AND THEY SHOULD ALSO PRAY… MENTAL HEALTH ISSUES SUCH AS DEPRESSION ARE AN ILLNESS LIKE ANY OTHER AND SO THEY SHOULD BE DIAGNOSED AND TREATED PROPERLY. NO ONE SHOULD MAKE FUN OF THOSE SUFFERING OR TAKE IT LIGHTLY. SEEK REPENTANCE FROM ALLAH AND DO YOUR FIVE DAILY PRAYERS. THEN, ALLAH REMOVES THESE DIFFICULTIES.”
