Although the exact cause of most mental illnesses is not known, it is becoming clear through research that many of these conditions are caused by a combination of genetic, biological, psychological, and environmental factors not personal weakness or a character defect and recovery from a mental illness takes time and including meaningful roles in social life, school and work especially when you start treatment early and play a strong role in your own recovery process.
