This study found that people with severe mental illness might not be accepted by hospices or care homes if staff do not feel equipped to manage them. This group of patients are rarely involved in advance care planning discussions during which they could explore their wishes. They are unlikely to receive the most appropriate end-of-life care. The treatment is largely nutritional, - vitamin supplements and the like. He doesnt explain how what he sees on the brain scan image can determine the necessary treatment. There is some evidence of the utility of vitamins, nutrients, amino acid aupplements for trearment of certain mental illness but how does one determine which vitamin would be appropriate for say, a schizophrenic patient, after you've looked at their brain scan image and identified that it looks different from a healthy person.?? Barrier: Delayed diagnoses of life-threatening disease hinders timely treatment, and provision of end-of-life care. People with severe mental illness might not recognise their physical health needs and signs of deterioration. They are therefore often late to receive palliative care. Dr. Amen writes repeatedly about the Amen Clinics 4 Circles, four key areas of life that can contribute to mental health. These areas are biological, psychological, social, and spiritual. While Amen Clinics may have come up with the term “4 Circles,” the biopsychosocial model of understanding illness was developed by George Engel, MD, in 1977, and current discussions of this model frequently incorporate a spiritual dimension as well. 2

The MENLOC evidence synthesis NIHR Journals Library report: Hannigan B, and others. End-of-life care for people with severe mental illness: the MENLOC evidence synthesis. Health and Social Care Delivery Research 2022;10:4Teach you how to contribute to your own brain healing and prevent or reverse the problems that are stealing your mind I understand that books written by scientists are held to a different standard. But this book was a little rough. Dr. Amen also mentions that 80% of the developing world relies upon natural or herbal remedies as the primary source of medicine. While he frames this statement as supporting his endorsement of such remedies, it could conversely be said that this is evidence of the need to make pharmacological interventions more widely available in the developing world. Media representations of people with mental illness can influence perceptions and stigma, and they have often been negative, inaccurate or violent representations. A study published in April 2020 looked at a recent example, the popular film Joker (2019), which portrays the lead character as a person with mental illness who becomes extremely violent. The study found that viewing the film "was associated with higher levels of prejudice toward those with mental illness." Additionally, the authors suggest, " Joker may exacerbate self-stigma for those with a mental illness, leading to delays in help seeking." In The End of Mental Illness, Dr. Amen draws on the latest findings of neuroscience to challenge an outdated

The belief that you'll never succeed at certain challenges or that you can't improve your situation These thoughts lead to lowered self-esteem and self-efficacy: "Why try? Someone like me is not worthy of good health." We know that people with severe mental illness have worse physical health than the general population. People with severe mental illness are as entitled to have good quality and timely care as anyone else.Patient testimonials are provided, asserting that SPECT imaging helped them know “exactly” what treatment would help them. One cannot help but wonder whether part of the benefit of SPECT imaging is a placebo effect, boosting the confidence of patients that the treatment they are receiving is personalized and scientifically sound. A similar trend is currently seen more broadly in psychiatry with the widespread promotion of pharmacogenetic testing. Such testing may bolster patient confidence in their medication, but its value in improving patient outcomes has not been established. 1 This book is a very detailed look at why we should be looking at mental health as brain health, and how much the state of the brain effects everything. People with severe mental illness should have the same quality end-of-life care as those without mental illness. This study highlights some of the key barriers this group of people face and offers recommendations. If you have money or great connections this book will likely feel like music to your ears. Other times it feels like a low key dad lecture. Healthy Minds with Dr. Jeffrey Borenstein aims to remove the stigma of mental illness and demonstrate that with help, there is hope. The series focuses on common psychiatric conditions through inspiring personal stories, as well as, experts sharing cutting edge information, including new approaches and next-generation therapies in diagnostics, treatment and research. Series is produced by the Brain & Behavior Research Foundation.
