Is there any 100% cure in mental health?

Hello, The question that you have raised here is very appropriate, and I am sure it has a lot of significance for you to write a detailed query on this page. To get your answer we must understand what is the concept of "cure". Cure would technically be complete removal of the disease and with no chances of recurrence. However I must state here that as per science of today concept of cure would only be applicable to infectious diseases or injuries. Where the removal of the pathological processes leading to disease will remove the disease in totality. Mental illnesses like most non infectious diseases are multi factorial in origin and risk factors. Hence they can be treated or controlled, not cured. A course of treatment may be considered completed when the risk of recurrence lowers significantly and is considered low clinically. Hence treatment can be completed successfully and treatment outcome can be considered favourable, however cure is not a term which is an applicable construct in mental health. Hope I have answered your question somewhat. Thanks for raising this pertinent query... Best wishes for your health and future. Regards Delhi Mind Clinic
